Headset Adapter
Secure Screw-Down Audio Interface for Icom Airband Portables
The Icom OPC2401 is a specialized headset adapter designed to bridge the gap between professional aviation headsets and Icom’s high-performance airband handheld radios. Featuring a rugged screw-down connector, this adapter provides a secure, vibration-proof link to the radio's accessory port, ensuring that critical communications are never interrupted during flight or ground operations. The Icom OPC2401 is an essential tool for pilots and ground crew who require hands-free operation and the superior noise attenuation provided by standard aviation headsets.
Engineered specifically for compatibility with the Icom A16 series, this adapter allows users to connect to a Push-to-Talk (PTT) switch for seamless transmission control. Its heavy-duty cabling and reinforced strain relief are built to withstand the rigors of the cockpit environment, providing a reliable audio path for both incoming reception and outgoing voice clarity. By using the Icom OPC2401, you maintain the radio’s environmental integrity while gaining the flexibility to use high-tier audio accessories.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can I use this with the older Icom A24 or A25 radios? No, the Icom OPC2401 is specifically designed for the screw-down accessory port found on the A16 series. Older models typically use the OPC-499 or OPC-2379 adapters.
-
Is a PTT switch required? Yes, because most aviation headsets do not have a built-in PTT for the radio, an external switch like the Icom PTT-SW is necessary to transmit.
-
Does this adapter support stereo audio? The adapter is wired to provide the mono audio signal standard for aviation radio communications through your headset.
