KYX-15 is a portable battery-operated key storage and transfer
device, also known as a Net Control Device, developed around 1976
by the US National Security Agency
(NSA).
It can store up to 16 keys of 128 bits each, and can be filled by a
KOI-18, KYK-13 or by another KYX-15.
When connected to COMSEC (radio) equipment,
it can be used for Advanced Remote Keying.
Also known by its National Stock Number (NSN) 5895-01-026-9619.
At present we do not have a picture of the KYX-15.

Below the hinged lid of the KYX-15 is a 6-pin U-229 connector
(actually a U-283/U). By means of a fill cable, this receptacle can be
connected to a crypto device, to a key transfer device like the
KYK-13, or to another KYX-15.
Below is the pinout when looking into the receptacle.
Note that this device does not support the REQ/ACK signal on pin C.
