The B737-700 is equipped with what type of handsets?

• A. The B737-700 uses single-function handsets
• B. The B737-700 uses wireless handsets
• C. The B737-700 uses dual-purpose handsets
• D. The B737-700 has no handsets

Answer: (C)

On the 737-700, handsets are dual-purpose, meaning a single handset serves both the interphone system and the public-address system. This design lets crew use one device to call the cockpit or other cabin stations and, when needed, make announcements to the cabin, without needing separate equipment. Wireless handsets aren’t standard on this aircraft, and having only a single function would limit communication capabilities. There are indeed handsets installed at jump seats and cabin positions, so the option describing no handsets isn’t correct.
