Sena’s Adaptive Mesh Networking technology allows the group intercom to connect effortlessly. And if a rider goes out of range, the Sena ensures seamless communication with the rest of the group. At the same time, the Sena 50R automatically brings all drivers back into the group as soon as they are back in range. With this dynamic group structure, complicated pairing attempts are a thing of the past.

Thanks to Sena’s pioneering Adaptive Mesh Networking technology, which works in combination with Bluetooth, the 50R has more connections than ever before. With an innovative dual antenna and two separate processors, one for Bluetooth and one for Adaptive Mesh Networking, the 50R can connect to each processor simultaneously thanks to multi-operation. This means you can connect up to 3 additional communication devices to your Sena 50R headset via Bluetooth 5.0 and then simultaneously connect them to an existing MeshNetworking group.

Communicate reliably and clearly in HD audio quality with up to 24 other riders over a maximum range of 2 km. The 50R also enables individual group management, allowing you to divide users into groups and differentiate between them. In addition to these private groups, you can search for motorbike riders within a 2 km radius who are also using a Sena 50R at the touch of a button. You will be automatically connected to them.

Sena 50R Audio Multitasking technology allows you to make calls via Adaptive Mesh Networking and simultaneously stream music from your smartphone via Bluetooth, take or make phone calls and play detailed GPS navigation instructions. Users no longer have to worry about the intermittent audio functions of previous Bluetooth communication devices. Now the audio functions no longer interrupt each other, but overlap and provide a pleasant listening experience. Add seamless audio to your rides.

Use the Sena smartphone app to configure the device settings (e.g. enter a group of biker friends for the hands-free system) or take a look at the quick guide. Simply pair your mobile phone with your 50R headset and run the Sena smartphone app. This allows you to adjust the settings directly from your smartphone.

The new fast charging function of the 50R offers around 3 hours of operating time after just 20 minutes of charging. On the road, the 50R can be controlled entirely via voice commands. The intuitive technology ensures safe, controlled riding by seamlessly switching between music, phone and intercom functions.

The universal mounting option with clamp and/or adhesive holder and the 50R’s interchangeable cable and gooseneck microphone allows it to be used with almost any helmet, whether jet, flip-up or full-face. The Sena 50R is compatible with Sena’s optimised handlebar remote control and all 20S clamp accessories.

Important note:
The headset firmware can be updated in 2 ways: with the WiFi adapter or with the Sena Device Manager (PC). If you use the Sena Device Manager for updating, the device must be connected to a PC with a standard USB charging and data cable (USB-C). The WiFi adapter cannot be used for this.
