Mounting Requirements
Airtext should be mounted in a pressurized and heated location. To achieve optimal Bluetooth reception,
mount Airtext as close as possible to the cabin. The optimum location is in a side wall near the center of
the cabin. Alternate Bluetooth antennas are available if the Airtext router must be mounted beneath a
metal or carbon fiber floorboard, or in a cabinet or behind a partition made from metal honeycomb where
Bluetooth transmissions may be degraded. A multitude of sizes and shape antennas and various length
antenna cables are available. Select one that is designed to work with Bluetooth radios. These antennas
and their extension cables replace the stub antennas supplied by Send Solutions. Some models may be
purchased through Send Solutions.
Cooling air is not required except in locations where
the specified maximum ambient operating
temperature may be exceeded.
HARDWARE INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
This section provides hardware equipment information for installing Airtext. For interconnects with
interfaced equipment, see Figure 2.
Wiring Harness Installation
Allow adequate space for installation of cables and connectors. Observe minimum bend radius for the
coax cable. All electrical connections are made through a 25-pin D-sub connector provided by Send
Solutions. Construct the wiring harness according to the information contained in this and the following
sections. Cable lengths will vary depending upon installation.
