10-meter radar antenna cable extension

This Raymarine antenna cable extension, part number A55081D, is 10 meters long. It is designed to extend the range of digital radar systems.

This extension is specifically designed for Raymarine digital radar systems. It allows extending the connection between the radar antenna and the display unit or processor.

Yes, model A55081D is an official Raymarine component. This ensures perfect compatibility and optimal performance with Raymarine equipment.

Main advantages include:

Greater flexibility in positioning the radar antenna on the vessel.A stable connection between the antenna and the display unit.Minimized signal loss over the 10-meter distance.Guaranteed integrity of radar data for accurate detection.

Yes, this extension is specifically designed for marine environments. It is built to withstand typical sea use conditions, ensuring durability and reliability.

This extension is compatible with Raymarine digital radar systems in general. For specific models, check your radar system documentation to confirm it uses a standard Raymarine digital extension cable.

No, this extension is an official component specifically designed for Raymarine digital radar systems. Using it with equipment from other brands is not recommended and could lead to compatibility or performance issues.

It provides greater flexibility for antenna positioning. With its 10-meter length, it allows you to significantly distance the antenna from the main electronics, making integration on masts or radar arches easier where a longer cable is required.

Wiring installation for marine electronic systems generally requires basic knowledge of marine electronics. It is important to ensure secure and watertight connections to maintain system integrity.

Yes, the cable is sized and designed to minimize signal loss over its 10-meter length. This ensures that radar data is transmitted with the necessary integrity, which implies protection against interference for accurate target detection.

The part number (SKU) for this Raymarine antenna cable extension is A55081D.

No, this extension is specifically designed for Raymarine digital radar antenna systems. It is not suitable for GPS antennas, VHF or other equipment that uses different wiring specifications.

Radar antenna cables should generally not be cut or modified, as this can affect signal integrity and system performance. It is better to select the cable length best suited to your installation from the start.

To ensure a watertight connection, it is crucial to use the appropriate connectors and follow the manufacturer's instructions for assembly. Using self-vulcanizing tape or high-quality marine-grade heat-shrink tubing is often recommended to protect junctions from moisture and marine environment.

Raymarine Quantum radars use a different connection (Ethernet/Wi-Fi) and are generally not compatible with traditional digital radar cable extensions like the A55081D. This extension is designed for Raymarine digital radars that use a specific coaxial cable.

Although the cable is designed to be robust for the marine environment, it offers sufficient flexibility for reasonable routing through conduits and cable passages on a vessel. It is always recommended to avoid tight bends to preserve the integrity of the cable and the signal.

No, this extension is specifically designed to maintain the performance of Raymarine digital radar systems. It is sized to minimize signal loss over 10 meters, ensuring that radar data is transmitted with the integrity required for accurate target detection.

The cable is an accessory. Detailed mounting instructions for integrating this type of extension are typically provided in the installation manual of your Raymarine digital radar system, which explains how to connect the various components.

The connectors on this extension cable are designed to provide a stable and secure electrical and data connection between the radar antenna and the existing cable or the display/processing unit. They are also designed to withstand the marine environment and ensure the connection remains watertight.
