Description
Description
The A015-RX AIS-VHF Antenna Splitter allows one VHF antenna to be shared between,

- VHF radio
- AIS receiver and
- AM/FM radio
The A015-RX allows the one VHF antenna to provide the following functions:
- Reception of VHF radio, AIS messages and AM/FM radio
- Transmission from VHF radio
- Straight forward connection to the relevant devices
The A015-RX is an active splitter. This is important, as unlike many splitters that cause signal loss, the active splitters actually provide a signal gain. The A015-RX’s built-in pre-amplifier amplifies the AIS, VHF, AM/FM signals, thereby increasing the AIS receiver range.
Features
| Feature | Description |

| Gain | Typical VHF/AIS Gain: 12 dB |
| Preamplifier | Built-in preamplifier providing VHF/AIS signal gain to maximize receiver range |
| Indicators | LED power and status indicator |
| Installation | Compact & easy to install |
