The Avair AV-24Y adapter cable is a dedicated interface lead designed to connect the popular Avair AV-508 desktop base station microphone to Yaesu transceivers. It converts the microphone’s modular telephone-style RJ output into the standard 8-pin round metal chassis connector found on most classic and modern Yaesu base and mobile radios, ensuring clean modulation and dependable PTT switching.
Manufactured with high-grade shielded low-loss cabling and precision overmolded connectors, the AV-24Y prevents RF feedback, hum, and electromagnetic interference (RFI) from compromising your transmitted audio. It offers a true plug-and-play installation with no internal soldering, pin re-wiring, or transceiver modifications required, making it an essential accessory for radio amateurs operating Yaesu equipment on HF, VHF, and UHF bands.
Why Choose the Avair AV-24Y Adapter Cable?
Unlike unshielded aftermarket cables that can introduce RF pickup, audio ground hum, or malfunctioning UP/DOWN frequency controls, the genuine Avair AV-24Y features precision-matched factory pin connections between the Avair RJ modular standard and Yaesu 8-pin circular inputs. Its threaded metal locking collar guarantees a tight, secure mechanical fit that will not loosen during operation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this cable be used with Icom or Kenwood transceivers?
No. This cable is wired strictly for the pinout configuration of Yaesu 8-pin circular microphone sockets. Icom and Kenwood radios require their respective brand-specific adapter cables.
Does it support UP/DOWN frequency control from the microphone?
Yes, it routes the UP and DOWN lines directly, provided your specific Yaesu transceiver model supports remote frequency control through its 8-pin front microphone socket.
