Shielded Ethernet cable 20 m

This cable is designed to establish reliable and stable network connections within your Fusion marine audio system. It enables data transmission between different compatible audio devices, ensuring smooth communication for an optimal sound experience aboard your boat.

This Fusion shielded Ethernet cable is 20 m long, providing considerable flexibility for installation and routing through different areas of your vessel.

The shielding protects the cable against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), which are common in a marine environment with many electronic devices. This ensures stable data transmission and reduces the risk of signal loss or performance degradation in your audio system.

Yes, this Ethernet cable is specifically designed for marine applications. It is built to withstand harsh marine conditions such as moisture, vibrations, and temperature fluctuations, ensuring reliable durability and performance.

This cable is compatible with Fusion marine audio systems equipped with Ethernet ports, enabling connection and communication between main units, amplifiers, media servers or other compatible network components from the Fusion brand.

Although this cable uses standard Ethernet connectivity, it is optimized for Fusion marine audio systems. For optimal compatibility and guaranteed performance, it is recommended to use it with Fusion products. Compatibility with other brands will depend on the network specifications of those devices.

During transport, it is recommended to:

Avoid sharp edges to prevent cable damage.
Secure it firmly to prevent movement or stress.
Keep it as far as possible from power cables to minimize interference, despite its shielding.
Use cable glands and conduits if necessary for added protection.

Cutting and shortening pre-terminated shielded Ethernet cables is generally not recommended, as it can compromise the shielding integrity and connection quality. If a shorter length is required, it is better to choose a cable of the appropriate length or consult a professional for proper termination.

Designed for the marine environment, this cable is made with materials resistant to corrosion from salt water and damage caused by prolonged exposure to UV rays, ensuring its longevity and performance outdoors.

Benefits include:

Stable and fast data transmission for your audio network.Reduction of interference thanks to shielding.Increased durability in the marine environment.Optimized compatibility with Fusion audio devices for seamless integration.

Installing this cable typically does not require any special tools beyond those used for routing and securing cables on a boat (cable ties, fasteners, etc.). The connectors are plug-and-play ready.

No, this Ethernet cable is designed for Ethernet network connectivity for audio systems. NMEA 2000 is a different communication protocol using specific cables and connectors. It is not directly compatible with a standard Ethernet network.

Yes, this shielded Ethernet cable is designed to be compatible with Fusion’s Apollo™ marine audio systems, enabling reliable network connectivity between components in this range.

If the Fusion RA series marine audio systems have Ethernet ports for network connectivity, then this cable will be compatible. It is always recommended to check the specifications of your specific RA model.

Yes, as it is designed for the marine environment, this cable is built to withstand the constant vibrations and shocks encountered aboard a boat, ensuring a stable and durable connection.

To ensure the longevity and reliability of the connection, make sure the connectors are properly protected from moisture and direct exposure to the elements, using protective caps or installing them in waterproof housings if necessary.

Yes, as a shielded Ethernet cable, it can theoretically be used for general computer network applications. However, it is optimized for Fusion marine audio systems, where it provides specific performance and durability suited to the requirements of this environment.

The standard color of Fusion marine-grade Ethernet cables is typically black, designed to blend discreetly with marine installation aesthetics.

Yes, it is important to respect a minimum bending radius to avoid damaging the internal conductors and the cable shielding. Avoid bending the cable too tightly, as this could affect its performance and durability.
