Headset with XLR-5 (airbus plug) on the E-175
On the 175 there is a five-pin plug where where the headset jacks plug in. I believe this is for headsets with an XLR-5 or "airbus" plug which eliminates the need for batteries on an ANR headset. Just one plug is nice too.
Am I correct? Does anyone use it? I'm leaning towards a Telex 850.
Thx

I would think you need to be sure the adapter plug you buy needs to handle the power from the plane properly in addition to the communication signals.

I can't speak specifically for the Telex; but, I did use that plug with my Bose. I had to purchase a custom down cable from them which they make on occasion.
