The AV-547 splitter feeds two navigation receivers from one antenna. The matching circuitry is enclosed in a durable, light weight aluminum housing for superior mechanical and environmental stability. The splitter operates at altitudes of up to 50,000 ft. This product is a direct replacement for the CI 502.

The AV-570 diplexer splits the signal from a VOR-Type NAV antenna to feed a NAV/LOC and a GS receiver. The diplexer construction is similar to the AV-547 splitter and operates at altitudes up to 50,000 ft. This product is a direct replacement for the CI 507.

The AV-571 diplexer/splitter splits the signal from a VOR-Type antenna to feed two NAV and one Glide Slope receivers. The diplexer/splitter’s construction is similar to the AV-547 splitter and operates at altitudes up to 50,000 ft. This product is a direct replacement for the CI 505.

The AV-586 antenna coupler is a signal splitter providing two outputs from a single antenna. The necessity of bringing this product forward comes from advancing technology in avionics. Newer designed navigational radios have only one antenna input to receive all three (VOR/LOC/GS) signals whereas older legacy radios had a separate antenna input for the VOR/LOC signal and another antenna input for the GS signal.

In an aircraft instrument panel with two newer navigational radios the AV-586 is the article that will provide the necessary signals to both radios utilizing a single antenna.

The AV-590 is an electronic switch allowing two COM radios to share the same COM antenna.

In receive mode, it acts as a signal splitter allowing both COM radios reception across the entire COM band (118-137 MHz).

In transmit mode, which ever COM radio (COM 1 or 2) is selected through the audio panel, a control signal is sent to the AV-590, switching the selected COM radio to the COM antenna and isolating the remaining COM radio from the COM antenna.

Once no longer transmitting, the control signal is removed and the AV-590 electronic switch reverts back to the receive mode as described above.

The AV-930 diplexer can be used with airborne multiband FM transceivers. The device is designed to provide two separate frequency band ports (typically going to a multiband transceiver) from a single port multiband antenna.

The AV-17 is a general aviation antenna designed specifically for mounting to the underside of an aircraft, providing an excellent radiation pattern for air-to-ground communications. It has a 4-bolt mounting base and is low in profile. The antenna is designed to operate at speeds up to 350 mph and altitudes up to 50,000 ft. It has a drag force of 0.66 lb @ 250 mph. This antenna is a direct replacement for the CI 122.

The AV-530 is designed for broadband communications. The antenna has a die-cast aluminum base and a tapered stainless steel whip for less drag at higher airspeeds. It is supplied with a weather-sealing gasket and mounting hardware. The antenna is designed to operate at speeds up to 350 mph and altitudes up to 50,000 ft. It has a drag force of 1.65 lb @ 250 mph. This antenna is a direct replacement for the CI 292-1.
