NOTES
1. Non-Garmin part numbers shown are not maintained by Garmin and consequently are subject
to change without notice.
2. Extraction of 16 and 18 AWG contacts requires cutting off the wire barrel from the contact. It
may also be necessary to push the pin out from the face of the connector when using an
extractor.
3. For applications using 16 AWG wire, contact Garmin for information regarding connector
crimp positioner tooling.
3.3 Antenna Installation
For the COM, VOR/LOC, and Glideslope antennas, follow the manufacturers’ instructions. Avoid
running other wires and coaxial cables near the VOR/LOC antenna cable.
CAUTION
Do not use construction grade RTV sealant or sealants containing acetic acid. These
sealants may damage the electrical connections to the antenna. Use of these type sealants
may void the antenna warranty.
3.4 Cable Installation
1. Route the coaxial cable to the rack location keeping in mind the recommendations of Section 2.
Secure the cable in accordance with good aviation practice.
2. Trim the coaxial cable to the desired length and install the BNC connector (330-00087-00) per
the cabling instructions on Figure 3-1. If the connector is provided by the installer, follow the
connector manufacturer’s instructions for cable preparation
.
