Pilot USA PA-87 High (GA) to Low (Military) Impedance Converter
Adapt high-impedance GA headsets to low-impedance military radios with the Pilot USA PA-87 impedance converter. Durable, passive, and built for reliable cockpit audio.
Converts GA high-impedance headset outputs to military low-impedance radio inputs
Passive design — no external power required
Preserves transmit and receive audio clarity and proper levels
Rugged aviation-grade construction for demanding environments
Compact, lightweight form factor for easy cockpit integration
Ideal for pilots and crews operating across GA and military comms
The Pilot USA PA-87 impedance converter allows helicopter and fixed-wing GA headsets (high-impedance) to interface cleanly with military low-impedance radio systems. Engineered for dependable performance in aviation environments, the PA-87 maintains audio fidelity while matching impedance levels to prevent distortion and level mismatch. Its passive, no-power design makes it simple to deploy in flight bags or integrate into cockpit installations without additional wiring or power sources. Built with aviation-grade materials and connectors, the converter provides a reliable solution for pilots, maintenance crews, and mission teams who need interoperability between civilian headsets and military radios. The PA-87 is a practical accessory for mixed-fleet operations, training, and field deployments where dependable communications are essential.
