8 pin Mini-DIN to 3.5mm jack high quality screened (shielded) cable. Length approx 1.5m/4ft 10ins.

This cable enables your Yaesu radio to control your SDR switch.

One end of the cable has a 3.5mm jack plug which connects to the PTT input connector of the SDR switch. The other end of the cable has an 8 pin mini-DIN plug which connects to the radio according to the following list:

FT-450 TUNER connector
FT-950 TUNER connector

FT-847 TUNER connector

FT-817 ACC connector
FT-857 CAT/Linear connector
FT-891 TUN/LIN connector
FT-897 CAT/Linear connector

FT-840 BAND DATA connector

FT-991 TUN/LIN connector

The FT-847 TUNER connector keying output used by this cable is only active on HF. For other bands, the FT-847 also has 5 pin mini-DIN SBY connector with individual linear keying outputs available for HF, 50MHz, 144MHz and 430MHz. We sell a quad-band pigtail cable for the FT-847 SBY output.

The FT-450 and FT-950 also have a 10 pin LINEAR connector and we have suitable cables.

Perfect for switching the commonly available SDR Tx/Rx antenna and audio switches that require a low current/voltage DC closure to ground.

Please check carefully by consulting the manuals for both your radio and your SDR switch and ensure the keying output of your radio and the switching input of your SDR switch are compatible before purchasing this cable. The radio or SDR switch can be damaged by connecting incorrectly.

Although we are happy to offer advice, it is ultimately your responsibility to verify that the switching output of your transceiver and the switching input of your SDR switch can be safely connected to each other using this cable.
