FI-50-CHAIN-5M NMEA2000 Micro5C 90° 5-pin M/F cable - 5m

The NMEA 2000 cable FURUNO FI-50-CHAIN-5M has a length of 5 meters.

This cable is fitted with angled 5-pin Micro5C connectors, male on one end and female on the other (M/F).

Yes, this cable is designed to withstand marine environments. It has an IP67 to IP68 waterproof rating, ensuring protection against temporary immersion and dust.

The FURUNO FI-50-CHAIN-5M cable can operate reliably within a temperature range of -20°C to 80°C.

Its main role is to connect different marine electronic devices within an NMEA 2000 network, enabling the sharing of essential data between these devices, such as navigation information, engine data, or sensor readings.

This cable is rated for a nominal current of 4A and a voltage of 60V AC/DC. It has a contact resistance ≤5mΩ and an insulation resistance ≥100MΩ.

Yes, the connectors are made with gold-plated copper alloy contacts, ensuring reliable conductivity and better resistance to corrosion in the marine environment.

Yes, the design with angled Micro5C connectors is specifically intended to make connections easier in cramped or hard-to-reach spaces aboard a boat.

This NMEA 2000 cable is a Furuno product, a recognized manufacturer of marine electronic equipment.

Yes, this cable supports a multi-drop network architecture, which is a fundamental characteristic of the NMEA 2000 standard for connecting multiple devices on the same bus.

Yes, this cable is NMEA 2000 compliant and is designed to ensure data sharing between all NMEA 2000-compatible devices using Micro5C connectors.

Yes, as long as the devices comply with the NMEA2000 standard and use Micro5C connectors, this cable can be used to connect them, regardless of the brand.

Yes, it is specifically designed to facilitate serial daisy-chaining of Furuno FI-50 series instruments, eliminating the need for additional T-connectors for these devices.

No, this cable is designed exclusively for NMEA 2000 networks and is not compatible with the NMEA 0183 standard, which uses a different protocol and connectors.

No, Micro5C and Mini NMEA2000 are different connector types with distinct physical sizes. This cable uses the Micro5C format.

This cable enables the transmission of various types of NMEA 2000 data, including navigation information (GPS, speed, heading), engine data, sensors (temperature, depth), and other essential data for real-time marine applications.

Its design with angled connectors and its ability to allow daisy-chaining for Furuno FI-50 instruments greatly simplifies installation, especially in confined spaces, by reducing the need for T-connectors.

Yes, with its male and female connectors, it can be used to extend the length of an existing NMEA 2000 network segment or to connect remote devices.

No, NMEA 2000 Micro5C connectors are designed for simple and quick screw-type connections without requiring specific tools for wiring.

It is important to tighten the connectors firmly by hand to ensure optimal sealing, compliant with IP67 to IP68 cable ratings, and thus protect the connections from moisture.
