2.2.8 GPS Coaxial Cable Fabrication

The GPS Antenna Splitter allows the existing KA 91 or KA 92 GPS antenna to be interfaced to the
KMH 820 EGPWS.
The following criteria must be observed when using the antenna splitter:
1. The length of an M17/128-RG400 coaxial cable cannot exceed 18 feet.
2. The maximum allowable signal loss between the KA 91/92 antenna and the KLN
series GPS receiver cannot exceed 8.0 dB. Refer to the appropriate KLN series GPS
receiver Installation Manual for determination of loss.
3. The maximum allowable signal loss between the KA 91/92 antenna and the KMH 820
cannot exceed 8.0 dB. Refer to the following table to determine the loss between the
antenna and the KMH 820.
