IAB (ICOM Breakout Boxes)
The IAB1 and IAB2 are fairly simple boxes using an ohmmeter and proper ICOM documentation of the 8 and 13 pin DIN connectors available on this link;
www.
you can easily do a continuity check from shield of any connector to Ground on the DIN connector, Also from TIP of any cable to the designated DIN pin for this function.
IMPORTANT NOTE: modifying or even opening the DIN plug CAN cause a short that CAN damage your radio, VE2DX Electronic is not responsible for any such damage.
CT-17B (ICOM CI-V Hubs) FTDI USB
Did you know we ONLY use FTDI USB Chipsets in our ICOM CI-V hub CT-17B product line for your Ham Radio Station, other well-known USB chipsets have been known to be cloned and full of bugs, that is why we ONLY use FTDI chipsets.
CT-17B (ICOM CI-V Hubs) Cables.
Did you know that you should NEVER use stereo cables on a CI-V network? The ICOM CI-V network infrastructure in your Ham Radio station is designed for Mono cables and 1/8 plugs.
Even dought ICOM radios will work with stereo cables (and our CT-17Bs also!) other non-ICOM products may short the signals to grounds causing you communication issues.
