Detailed description

The FURUNO FRU-CF-FF-15M cable is an essential component designed to connect the display (screen) to the antenna (radome) of the FURUNO M1815 radar system. At 15 meters long, this dedicated cable is a key part of the M1815 radar installation and operation, enabling the transmission of data and power required.

Integration and Functionality of the M1815 Radar

The FRU-CF-FF-15M cable is specifically designed for the FURUNO M1815 radar, a system featuring an 8.4-inch color LCD display and a 4 kW output power. The M1815 is designed for range scales from 0.0625 to 36 nautical miles. This cable supports advanced radar functions such as Fast Target Tracking™, capable of acquiring and tracking up to 10 targets. It also enables the display of up to 100 AIS targets when the system is connected to a compatible FURUNO AIS unit.

Technical Specifications and Design

The M1815 radar system, which this cable supports, includes automatic settings for gain, sea clutter, and rain clutter, ensuring a clear radar image. Installation of the M1815 is simplified by a "pigtail" cable design at the antenna, eliminating the need to open the radome for connections. The FRU-CF-FF-15M cable provides this critical link, ensuring communication between the display unit and the 488 mm (19-inch) radome antenna of the M1815. It is important to note that this cable is intended for display-to-antenna connections and is not suitable for multi-station setups that require different cable types.

Expert opinion

« FURUNO M1815 cable: radar connection specialist »

This FURUNO FRU-CF-FF-15M cable is a critical component for installing the M1815 radar. Its primary function is to establish a direct connection between the display unit and the antenna, ensuring radar signal transmission without interference and the electrical power supply required by the radome. For an installer, it is essential to understand that this 15-meter cable is specifically designed for this single application: the direct indicator-to-antenna connection of the M1815. It must not be confused with cables for multi-station configurations, which have different specifications and connectors.

The practical value of this cable lies in its compliance with the technical requirements of the M1815 radar, a system known for its ease of installation, particularly due to the "pig tail" design of its radome. Using an original FURUNO cable ensures perfect compatibility and long-term reliability of the installation, avoiding performance or reliability issues that could arise with unspecified cables. Its 15-meter length is a standard option suitable for many installations on recreational boats and small fishing vessels, for which the M1815 radar is designed. During installation, it is essential to respect minimum bending radii and protect the cable from mechanical stress and UV exposure to maintain its integrity over the long term.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the primary function of the FRU-CF-FF-15M cable?

The FRU-CF-FF-15M cable is designed to establish the essential connection between the indicator (display screen) and the antenna (radome) of the FURUNO M1815 radar system. It ensures the transmission of data and power required for the radar to function correctly.

What is the length of this FURUNO cable?

This cable is 15 meters long, allowing flexibility in positioning the display and antenna on your vessel.

Which FURUNO radar model is this cable compatible with?

This cable is specifically designed to be compatible with the FURUNO M1815 radar system. It is not suitable for other radar models.

Can this cable be used for multi-station radar installations?

No, it is important to note that this FRU-CF-FF-15M cable is intended for connection between an indicator and a single M1815 aerial and is not suitable for multi-station setups, which require other specific cable types.

What are the specifications of the M1815 radar that this cable helps support?

This cable enables the M1815 radar to operate with its advanced features, including:

An 8.4-inch color LCD display.A 4 kW output power.Range scales from 0.0625 to 36 nautical miles.Fast Target Tracking™ for up to 10 targets.Display of up to 100 AIS targets (with a compatible FURUNO AIS unit).Automatic adjustments for gain, sea clutter, and rain clutter.

How is the cable connected to the M1815 radar antenna?

Connecting the cable to the M1815 radar antenna is simplified by a "pigtail" cable design at the aerial. This design eliminates the need to open the radome for connections, making installation easier.

Does the M1815 radome need to be opened to install this cable?

No, thanks to the "pig tail" cable design at the antenna, it is not necessary to open the M1815 radome to connect this cable. This greatly simplifies the installation process.

Is this cable an original product from the FURUNO brand?

Yes, the FRU-CF-FF-15M cable is an original FURUNO product, ensuring optimal compatibility and performance with the M1815 radar.

Does the FRU-CF-FF-15M cable transmit only data or also power?

This cable is designed for full transmission, providing both data transmission and power supply required for the M1815 radar aerial to operate from the display unit.

What is the size of the radome on the M1815 antenna that this cable connects to?

The FRU-CF-FF-15M cable is designed to connect the display to the 488 mm (19-inch) radome antenna of the FURUNO M1815 radar system.

Is the cable suitable for a marine environment?

Yes, as a component of the FURUNO M1815 marine radar system, this cable is designed to withstand the harsh environmental conditions typical of marine use, including moisture, salt, and temperature variations. It is made with robust materials to ensure durability.

What is the role of this cable in displaying AIS targets on the M1815?

The FRU-CF-FF-15M cable provides the connection between the indicator and the antenna of the M1815, enabling the radar system to operate. Displaying AIS targets (up to 100) is a feature of the M1815 radar itself, made possible when the system is connected to a compatible FURUNO AIS unit, and the cable is essential for transmitting data to the indicator that displays this information.
