Expert opinion

Pol CONIN

Digital Manager

« The importance of shielding and nickel-plated copper for marine reliability »

Skysat advice: first check the number of conductors and the shielding, then the AWG cross-section. On a control harness, leave service slack at both ends and label conductors before routing.

For sensitive connections, prefer the shielded KU05/KU06 versions and ground the shield according to the selected ground architecture. Avoid tight bends and routing near hot or abrasive areas.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What material is the KU05 2x16AWG shielded cable made of?

The KU05 2x16AWG shielded cable is made of tinned copper. This material provides stable conductivity and superior resistance to oxidation and galvanic corrosion, which is essential in demanding marine environments.

Why is shielding important for this cable?

The integrated shielding of the KU05 cable is critical for protecting signal and power transmissions. It helps reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI), which is particularly important for sensitive navigation instruments or onboard communication systems, ensuring signal stability and reliability.

Is the KU05 cable suitable for marine use?

Yes, the KU05 2x16AWG shielded cable is specifically designed for demanding marine environments. Its tinned copper construction provides superior resistance to oxidation and galvanic corrosion, extending its lifespan in humid and saline conditions.

What are the typical applications for KU05 cable on board a boat?

The KU05 2x16AWG shielded cable is versatile for various marine applications. It can be used for:

Powering small electronic equipment.Data lines for sensors.Instrument connections where protection against interference is required.

Is the KU05 cable compatible with NMEA 2000 or NMEA 0183 networks?

Although the KU05 2x16AWG shielded cable is not a dedicated NMEA 2000 or NMEA 0183 cable, its shielded design and conductor cross-section make it compatible with the creation of communication networks. It provides a robust alternative to non-marine-grade generic cables for similar applications.

What type of transmission is the KU05 2x16AWG cable suitable for?

The KU05 2x16AWG shielded cable is suitable for power and data transmission. Its 2x16AWG configuration is designed for applications requiring a moderate conductor cross-section while benefiting from shielding for signal integrity.
