It provides a controlled interface between the two cargo hooks and the longline. For the components below the Y-rope (carabiner to lanyard), Onboard offers an optional HEC longline package.

- Color-Coordinated for Accurate Installation:Y-rope lines are color-coded and imprinted with block-lettered identifying text to ensure correct installation every time.
- NHEC Load Option:With the Y-rope attached to both cargo hooks, the dual cargo hook system load limit is 1,323 lb. (600 kg). When an NHEC load is attached to only the primary cargo hook (i.e., without the Y-Rope), the normal aircraft load limit applies.
