2.3.11 Antenna Installation Guidelines
This information provides general installation guidance to ensure the installed antennas meet the
requirements for the Lynx NGT-9000.
Installation approval for the GPS and L-band antennas is not provided by the instructions provided in
this manual.
All antenna cables should be clearly marked as both connections use TNC connectors.
Cable requirements are located in paragraph 2.3.3. Cable vendors and approved antenna
manufactures are located in the General Information section.
An example of antenna placement is shown in Figure 2-16. Refer to the aircraft manufacturer's data
and the antenna manufacturer's installation instructions to mount the antenna. The installer may use
other FAA approved data to gain a separate antenna installation approval. Four L-band antenna
location configurations are available and are detailed below:
Single bottom omnidirectional (L-band) antenna (no TAS/TCAS, no diversity)
Bottom omnidirectional (L-band), top omnidirectional (no TAS/TCAS, diversity capable)
Bottom omnidirectional (L band), top directional (TAS/TCAS capable, diversity capable)
Bottom omnidirectional (L-band), bottom directional (TAS/TCAS capable, no diversity) due to both
being bottom mount (Helicopter)
All configurations have a top GPS antenna
