IFPL’s Dual Breakaway Audio Jack and supporting headset connector deliver a cost neutral and highly reliable solution to ensuring the continuity of signal and on-going customer satisfaction whist virtually eliminating the issue of broken sockets and damage to headset cables.
Developed using our innovative MagSignal* technology; the headset cable can be pulled from any angle without damaging the socket, jack or headset cable itself, extending the lifetime use and reducing customer induced damage (CID).
With floating magnets effective at maintaining signal during turbulence and vibration; the Dual Breakaway also includes dual redundancy, by incorporating two Long Life single pin stereo sockets, to ensure usability of the IFE system even if one socket becomes damaged.
