The Icom MBF-11 is a mounting bracket designed for the Icom ID-5200E transceiver.

This accessory allows the controller to be docked with the main unit, creating a more compact and integrated installation. It is suitable for users who want to keep the control panel together with the main radio body, instead of mounting the controller separately.

Icom describes the MBF-11 as a controller bracket for docking with the main unit, meaning it is intended to join the controller and main unit in one mounting arrangement.

It is useful for mobile installations, fixed stations, technical workbenches or amateur radio shacks where there is enough space to keep the complete radio assembly mounted and accessible.

This bracket should be distinguished from the MBA-19, intended for desktop controller use, and the MBA-20, the magnetic controller bracket for use with the MBF-1 mounting base.
