Description

The QK-AS12 AIS/VHF Fiberglass Antenna is a VHF and AIS antenna designed specifically for the marine industry.

The fiberglass VHF antenna benefits from a polyurethane coating, this provides protection of the antenna’s inner components.

With a Frequency range of  156 – 162.5 Mhz, an impedance of 50 Ω, a bandwidth of 6.5 Mhz and most importantly, a gain of  3.0 dBi, the QK-AS12 is the perfect fiberglass VHF aerial for small to medium-sized boats, whether for a sailboat, motorboat or tender.

Either,

1. Use one antenna per VHF or AIS device, or,
2. Use with an AIS/VHF Antenna Splitter to share one antenna between all VHF and AIS devices. As with all VHF antennas, if you wish to connect one antenna to both a VHF radio and an AIS receiver/transponder, you will need a VHF/AIS Splitter to allow your VHF radio and AIS devices to share one single antenna. VHF/AIS Splitter options include:

• • A015-RX VHF/AIS Antenna Splitter for AIS receivers
  • A015-TX VHF/AIS Antenna Splitter for AIS transponders/ transmitters

As your needs change - a child wants a new bed, or maybe a sibling arrives - the bed can keep up with the new needs.

Choose the bed you want to convert and see the conversion options in the bed converter.

We guarantee a five-year availability of the standard conversion kits for all convertible beds from the date of purchase.

Tested and approved according to safety standard EN 747-1:2012+A1:2015.

According to EN 747 loft beds and the upper bed of bunk beds are not suitable for children under 6 years due to the risk of injury from falls.

A smaller child can sleep in the lower bed of bunk beds, possibly with a bed guard for extra safety.
