  • Converts Airbus 7.1mm plug to GA dual PJ-068 and PJ-055 jacks

  • 5 cm length gives flexible reach between panel and headset
  • ABS and metal construction with shielded cable for lasting durability
  • Clear audio transmission maintains communication quality in the cockpit

7.1 mm Airbus to GA dual-plug adapter

This cable converts a 7.1 mm Airbus male headset plug into a standard general-aviation dual-plug arrangement with a 206 (PJ-068) microphone connector and a 250 (PJ-055) headphone connector. It lets pilots use a single helicopter headset in fixed-wing aircraft without carrying two separate headsets. The 52.5 cm cord is built from ABS and metal with a Kevlar-reinforced shield for long service life.

Replaces a second dedicated GA headset

The adapter eliminates the need to own and transport a separate general-aviation headset when switching between Airbus-type helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft. It is worth using whenever the pilot already owns a low-impedance Airbus headset and needs the standard PJ-068 / PJ-055 interface. The cable is not intended for connecting low-impedance civilian headsets to high-impedance intercom systems.

Fixed 52.5 cm length and plug standard

The cord length is fixed at 52.5 cm, so the reach between the headset and the panel jacks cannot be adjusted. Only the 7.1 mm to dual PJ-068 / PJ-055 wiring is provided; other plug types or impedance-matching circuitry are not included. Users requiring a different cable length or a different connector arrangement will need a separate solution.

Questions about this item

How long is the 52.5cm cable on this 7.1mm to GA dual plug adapter?

The adapter cable measures 52.5cm end-to-end, giving enough slack to connect an Airbus headset to a GA panel without strain.

Which jack do I plug in first when connecting the 206 PJ-068 microphone and 250 PJ-055 headphone plugs?

Insert the larger 250 PJ-055 headphone plug first, then the smaller 206 PJ-068 microphone plug; reversing them can bend the mic jack pins.

Will the ABS and metal connector housing need replacement after repeated cockpit use?

The ABS-plus-metal shell and Kevlar-reinforced cable are built for multi-year durability; only the cable itself would need replacing if the shielding is ever compromised.
