Aviation Adapters for XLR-5 Headsets
Transform your standard XLR-5 plug headset — commonly referred to as the "Airbus plug" — into a versatile communication tool compatible with a variety of aircraft. The UFlyMike Aviation Adapter for XLR-5 Headsets makes it easy to switch between aircraft with different jack styles while preserving clear, reliable audio.
Key Benefits:
- Universal Compatibility: Converts 5 Pin XLR barrel connector configuration (commonly called the “Airbus Plug”) for use with aircraft that feature a different jack style.
- Premium Componentry: Built using only authentic brand-name connectors — including LEMO, Neutrik, and Amphenol Nexus — for dependable performance and professional-grade durability.
- Connector Change Only: This adapter is a mechanical connection only — it does not modify impedance between low- and high-impedance systems.
- Clear Communication: Maintains crisp, uninterrupted audio transmission — critical for safe and effective in-flight coordination.
- Rugged & Ready: Durable, compact design fits effortlessly into your flight bag, so you're prepared for any cockpit configuration.
Plug Style: Choose the type of plug(s) that connects to the aircraft panel.
Not sure which adapter you need?
We recommend checking with your Flight Operations team, Maintenance department, or A&P mechanic.
Unfortunately, we can’t confirm compatibility based solely on aircraft type — it’s similar to asking what color your car is. It all depends on what was originally installed.
24-volt Aircraft Power: If the Plug Style selected supports Panel Power, the adapter will be wired to pass thru the power.
(Note:
Only XLR, LEMO, and NeutriCON connectors support Panel Power. Not all
aircraft with these connectors supply Panel Power.)
