This adapter allows older 6-pin panel powered aviation headsets to be used in single plug helicopter aircraft.

It is designed for older Bose X, Lightspeed Zulu, and similar 6-pin panel powered LEMO / Redel headsets that do not have a battery box. When these headsets are plugged into an aircraft with a 6-pin LEMO jack, the aircraft supplies power for the ANR system. When adapting them to a single plug helicopter connection, a battery box is required to power the ANR.

This adapter includes a 9V battery box to supply the required headset power. It also includes auto shutoff to help save battery life.

Important compatibility note: This is not the right adapter for most newer ANR headsets from Bose A20, Lightspeed, David Clark, and other manufacturers that already include a battery box on the headset cable, including many LEMO versions. For those headsets, use the 6-pin LEMO Panel Power to Helicopter Adapter instead.

Features:

  • Converts older 6-pin LEMO / Redel panel powered headsets to a single plug helicopter connection
  • For use in helicopters with a single plug headset jack
  • Built-in 9V battery box supplies power for ANR headsets without their own battery box
  • Auto shutoff helps conserve battery life
  • Designed for older Bose X, Lightspeed Zulu, and similar panel powered headsets without a battery box
  • If your LEMO headset has a battery box, get the 6-pin LEMO Panel Power to Helicopter Adapter instead

  • Previously Asked Questions

    Q: Would this work for a Lightspeed Zulu 2 with the LEMO connection?

    A: Yes, this will convert a panel powered (6-pin LEMO) Zulu.2 headset to be used in a helicopter with a standard single U-174/U plug.

    Q: I HAVE A BOSE X SET. It has the lemo plug and need to adapt It to helicopter. Don't know if its panel powered. Does this adapter work with either powered option ? Help. Thanks.

    A: Yes, if you have the Bose X with a Lemo adapter, this will convert that to a single U-174/U plug for use in a helicopter.  Because you cannot get power through a normal U-174/U plug in the helicopter, this adapter adds a battery box that will power the ANR system in your Bose X headset.

    Q: How exactly does this work? Do I plug it into the current 6 pin adapter or do I replace the cord and mic? Do you have a picture and any other information?

    A: You will just need to plug the headset into the adapter and the adapter into the helicopter. It will look similar to the Bose X Panel Powered Adapter to Portable Fixed Wing Adapter but will obviously have the U174 plug instead.
