What to Compare Before Buying
- Connector format: Check that the 5-pin male to 5-pin female T-piece and bare wire connection match the network layout you need.
- Length: The cable is 1 m long, so compare that with the distance between the backbone and the device or power point.
- Electrical rating: The stated 250V 4A max should be checked against the requirements of the exact installation.
- Compatibility: Compatibility is stated for several marine and NMEA 2000 connector families, so confirm that your equipment uses the same style.
Compatibility, Size and Fit
This cable is described for NMEA 2000 marine electronics and for a range of named marine brands and network cables and connectors. The key fit checks are the connector type, the 1 m length, and whether your equipment uses the same NMEA 2000 style arrangement.
It is also described for use with devices such as chartplotters, antennas, displays, sensors and marine gauges, so the selected setup should match the connector and network format rather than relying on appearance alone.
Before You Decide
Confirm the connector format, the 1 m cable length and the 250V 4A max rating before choosing an offer. If the cable is being used in a marine network, also check that your device and backbone use the same NMEA 2000 connection style.
