EX-CBL-FM10M Cable - Extension for HS-4800 / SP4800

This EX-CBL-FM10M extension cable is specifically designed for the following Furuno equipment:

HS-4800 remote handset
FM-4800 marine VHF radios
FM-4850 marine VHF radios
It ensures perfect compatibility with these models for optimal range extension.

The EX-CBL-FM10M cable is a 10-metre extension lead. This length is ideal for extending the range between the main unit of your VHF radio and its remote handset.

Yes, it is entirely possible to connect multiple EX-CBL-FM10M cables in series. You can thus extend the total length up to 30 meters, providing great flexibility for installing your VHF set.

Yes, the EX-CBL-FM10M cable is manufactured with marine-grade materials. It features waterproof connectors and UV-resistant insulation, providing excellent resistance to harsh marine environments, including moisture, salt, and sun exposure.

No, the EX-CBL-FM10M cable is designed for simple and quick installation. It is a plug-and-play installation that requires no special tools or modification of your existing equipment.

Yes, the EX-CBL-FM10M cable is equipped with high-performance shielding. This shielding is essential to minimize interference and ensure clear and reliable audio transmission, which is critical for marine VHF communications.

Yes, when this cable is used with the FM-4800 radio, it supports all radio functions. This includes 25W transmit power, Class D DSC, built-in GPS/AIS, and 30W speaker functions, with no performance loss.

Yes, the EX-CBL-FM10M cable is built with waterproof connectors and its construction meets the IPX7 waterproof rating of the FM-4800 radio. It is therefore perfectly suited for installation in a marine environment, even in saltwater, and resists water splashes and temporary immersion.

No, this EX-CBL-FM10M extension cable is specifically designed for Furuno equipment, including the HS-4800 display and FM-4800 / FM-4850 radios. It is not compatible with VHF displays from other brands due to its specific pinout and impedance.

No, the EX-CBL-FM10M cable is a passive extension. It requires no external power supply because it transmits the signal and power already provided by the main unit to which it is connected.

The EX-CBL-FM10M cable is specifically designed for recent models: the HS-4800 display and the FM-4800 / FM-4850 VHF radios. It is generally not compatible with older Furuno radio models due to differences in connectors and technical specifications.

The main advantage of this cable is that it increases installation flexibility for your marine VHF handheld. It allows you to position the remote HS-4800 handheld in a more convenient or accessible location on your boat while maintaining reliable and clear communication with the main unit.

Yes, the EX-CBL-FM10M cable has UV-resistant insulation. This means the cable jacket is designed to withstand degradation caused by prolonged sun exposure, ensuring long-term durability and visual integrity in a marine environment.

For correct installation of the EX-CBL-FM10M cable, ensure the waterproof connectors are properly mated at both ends (towards the VHF radio and towards the HS-4800 handset). The installation is plug-and-play, meaning connections are intuitive and require no complex configuration. Check that the connections are secure to ensure watertight integrity and signal quality.

Yes, the EX-CBL-FM10M cable is a FURUNO product. It is designed and manufactured to Furuno’s quality standards to ensure optimal compatibility and performance with their equipment.

Cutting or modifying the EX-CBL-FM10M cable is strongly discouraged. Its design, including shielding and specific connectors, is optimized to ensure signal integrity and waterproofing. Any modification could compromise its performance and resistance to marine conditions.

The watertight connectors on the EX-CBL-FM10M cable are essential for protecting electrical connections from water ingress and moisture. This ensures reliable communications and extends the lifespan of the cable and connected equipment, even in harsh marine conditions where exposure to saltwater is frequent.
