NOTE: Radio interconnect cables are generally specific to a radio brand and model, although
some manufacturer’s use the same connector for several radio models.
NOTE: Interconnect cables provided by C-AT have a seven digit part number label on the cable.
Connecting the interface cable to the LMR
NOTE: Once the interface cable is connected to the radio, you will be unable to hear audio from
that radio or use the mic.
1.
Attach the radio-end of the ICRI interconnect cable to the radio, as you would install any
radio accessory (i.e.: a shoulder speaker / microphone).
2.
Tightening any locking screws is optional; but it is important that the connector be firmly
seated against the radio jack so that good electrical contact is made.
3.
Attach the other end of the cable to any of the ICRI’s LAND MOBILE RADIO
INTERFACE jacks, labeled 1 or 2.
NOTE: When connecting the interface cable to the ICRI, make sure to align the flat side of the
connector on the interface cable with the orange dot on the radio port jack.

clockwise to release the locking mechanism. Then pull the connector straight out of the
jack. Hold the barrel of the connector rather than the cable
2.
Disconnect the radio-end of the cable from the radio, be sure to loosen any locking
screws before attempting to disconnect.
