KIV-79 to KIV-77 Adapter
KIV-79 to KIV-77 Adapter
The KIV-79 to KIV-77 Adapter provides a practical path for upgrading supported legacy KIV-77 installations without redesigning the existing platform interface.
The adapter allows a KIV-79 cryptographic unit or compatible KIV-79 Emulator to operate as a form-fit replacement for legacy KIV-77 applications while preserving the established footprint, connector alignment, and mounting interfaces.
The adapter provides a streamlined integration path for supported transponder and interrogator systems while reducing the need for platform wiring, mounting, or interface changes.
Key Capabilities
- Provides a mechanical and electrical interface between supported KIV-79 and KIV-77 applications.
- Preserves the KIV-77 installation footprint, connector alignment, and mounting interface.
- Supports use with the WebSec KIV-79 Emulator.
- Provides a practical upgrade path for supported Mode 5 transponder and interrogator systems.
- Supports field verification, laboratory evaluation, system integration, maintenance training, and engineering development.
- Compatible with supported Tel-Instrument T-47/M5 and TS-4530A test environments.
Applications
The KIV-79 to KIV-77 Adapter is intended for organizations maintaining legacy KIV-77 installations while transitioning to newer KIV-79-based Mode 5 equipment or emulator-based test configurations.
Final compatibility depends on the host platform, equipment configuration, applicable interface requirements, and approved integration documentation.

IFF Mode 5 Emulator
KIV-79 Mode 5 IFF Emulator
The next-generation AIMS Mode 5 Identify Friend or Foe Emulator from WebSec is designed as a modern, non-CCI replacement for legacy cryptographic devices.
The emulator can operate in place of a KIV-79 or, when used with the optional adapter, a KIV-77. This provides a flexible and future-ready solution for Mode 5 testing, system integration, training, and evaluation.
The KIV-79 Emulator integrates with the Tel-Instrument T-47/M5 and TS-4530A test sets and supports both flight line and laboratory applications.
Key Capabilities
- Physically representative of the KIV-79 form factor.
- Operates as a modern, non-CCI replacement for supported legacy cryptographic devices.
- Can be used in place of a KIV-79 or with an optional adapter for KIV-77 applications.
- Supports Flight Line Test Mode.
- Integrates with Tel-Instrument T-47/M5 and TS-4530A avionics test sets.
- Mimics KIV-79 Crypto Host Serial Interface protocol behavior during power-up, initialization, and traffic operation.
- Interoperates with other compatible Mode 5 emulators.
- Displays AIMS 04-900A Mode 5 messages in a human-readable format.
- Optional Active-Pro integration provides additional Mode 5 signal analysis capability for advanced test environments.
Applications
The KIV-79 Emulator is suitable for military flight line testing, laboratory evaluation, system integration, maintenance training, engineering development, and other controlled Mode 5 test applications.
