Shakespeare AM/FM/VHF Separator for Marine Antenna

Product description:

The Shakespeare 14357-S AM/FM/VHF band separator is a specialized device designed for marine applications, allowing simultaneous use of AM, FM, and VHF radio signals through a single antenna. The product is intended for installation on watercraft where space optimization and reliable signal reception are crucial. The separator works by splitting signals from one antenna into three independent outputs: AM, FM, and VHF, enabling connection of a radio receiver and a VHF radio without the need to install separate antennas for each band. Installation of the separator is simple – the device is mounted directly between the antenna and receivers, using standard antenna connectors. The separator’s construction ensures minimal signal loss and high resistance to marine conditions, including moisture, salinity, and vibrations. The product is especially recommended for yachts, motorboats, and other vessels where communication reliability and radio signal reception in harsh environmental conditions are important. The Shakespeare 14357-S features a robust housing, compatibility with a wide range of marine antennas, and easy integration with existing onboard audio and communication systems.
