I have hooked up SL30/430 installations using the combination you've 
described and it works fine.  I once tried a Comant CI-505 which connects to 
a single nav antennaa and provides 2 VOR outputs and a glideslope output. 
While this works fine for the 430 the SL30 receives VOR only, no glideslope. 
(If I'd thought about it a little harder I would have realized this was the 
case before I tried the CI-505.  Gotta remember to think before I buy.)

Another combination that will work is a Comant CI-502 followed by a Comant 
CI-507.  The CI-502 splits the signal, same as the Mini-Circuits part, but 
probably costs more.
