UC-584 Universal Couplers Provide a Solution to SAFO 17002 Application Note

2022-09-29
▲As a solution to the SAFO issued by the FAA dated 2/6/17, regarding improper transponder and ADS-B Out equipment testing, the FAA recommends maintenance personnel adhere to proper test procedures to prevent uninhibited transmissions that may affect ATC operations or airborne equipment. This recommendation is to coordinate with ATC and use antenna shielding to prevent test data that could generate false intruder information. The VIAVI IFR6000 has an antenna shield as a standard accessory that is used to block transmissions of your upper or lower antenna, while performing over-the-air testing; but this doesn’t solve the problem.
▲By using a coupler over your transponder antenna and using the antenna shield for installations with dual antennas, you can reduce false intruders. VIAVI’s UC-584 Universal Coupler fits most L-Band antennas and is available as an optional accessory to the IFR6000 and IFR6015. See product brief for specification.

■> 20dB isolation
