Rockwell-Collins Antenna Couplers

Last updated: 26 March 2005 with text and images


Antenna Couplers (as we understand it)

Rockwell-Collins made a number of Antenna couplers in that evloved over the years. We will try to show the various models and what ever information we know. If we have pictures, we will use them to help you understand what you may have found or want. We find much of the information from numerous Google and MSN searches as well input from personal sources. It just takes a lot of time to dig this stuff up.


180 Family

490 Family

CU-2275(V)1/490A-1

CU-2275(V)3
  Coupler, antenna (C-5 shunt).
  622-6841-001

CU-2275(V)4
  Coupler, probe for use with the F-1602. Same tuning capability as the CU-2275(V)l.
  622-7830-001

CU-2275(V)5
  Coupler, wire for use with the F-1602. Same tuning capability as the CU-2275(V)2.

	490R Group for high speed aircraft, 200 watts average, 630 watts peak, 2-30 MHz
	It is based on the 309C-4 coupler control system. Used on shunt or notch fed
	antenna designs

	490R-1	for the RF-101
	490R-3	for the F-111
	490R-4A	for the Mirage 4 aircraft

CU-2314(V)1/490R-2	Coupler, digital shunt antenna (F-111)	622-6897-002
  
CU-2314(V)2		Coupler, digital shunt antenna (F-15/16)	622-7094-002
  
CU-2314(V)3		Coupler, digital shunt antenna (B-lB)	652-0972-002
  
CU-2314(V)4/490S-4	Coupler, digital dual shunt. TSO approved (KC-10, C-130, G-III, G-IV)	622-7375-002
  
490A-5	Coupler, antenna, is an improved tuning range version of the CU-2275(V)2 coupler. 
	The enhanced capabilities include extending the long-wire antenna tuning limit for 
	antennas whose lengths range from 20 to 100 feet (dependent on the aircraft) and 
	extending the capability of tuning a whip as short as 5 meters (16 feet). 
	TSO approved. AC or DC power.
	622-9741-001
  
490S-4A	Same as 490S-4 plus receive through tuned circuits (MH-53J/M)	822-0648-001

490X-1 antenna coupler and 309H-1 antenna coupler controller (used in the AN/TSC-60)
