Detailed description

The Raymarine A80296 is a 400 mm Fistmic adapter cable for remote mounting of a compatible VHF handset/combined unit. It converts a 12-pin male connector on the radio side to an 8-pin female connector on the Fistmic side.

Raymarine VHF usage

This cable is used when the Fistmic handset must be installed away from the radio unit or a compatible VHF front panel, for example on a console, secondary station, or cockpit. It avoids custom wiring and maintains a clean connection between the handset and the Raymarine equipment.

Compatibility check required

Distributor sources list it for the Raymarine Ray60/Ray70 families and for handsets supplied with Ray63/Ray73 depending on configuration. Before ordering, verify the exact VHF model, existing connector type, and intended use: A80296 is the 12-to-8-pin adapter, while A80297 is the 12-to-12-pin variant with passive speaker output.

Expert opinion

Pol CONIN

Digital Manager

« A small cable, but compatibility must be checked »

The key point about the A80296 is the connector configuration: 12-pin male on the radio side and 8-pin female on the Fistmic side. This is the cable to choose for a remote mic setup when this conversion is required. If the need includes a passive speaker output or a 12-to-12 pin connection, then check A80297 instead. Before ordering, I recommend checking the VHF reference and the existing onboard connector.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the Raymarine A80296 cable used for?

It is used to connect a compatible Fistmic microphone/handset to a Raymarine VHF when the installation requires a 12-pin to 8-pin adapter and a short 400 mm length.

What are the connectors for the A80296?

Product datasheets describe the A80296 as a 12-pin male to 8-pin female cable. The 12-pin side connects to the radio, the 8-pin side to the Fistmic.

What is its length?

The stated length is 400 mm, or 0.4 m. It is designed for a short and clean connection in a console or around a VHF station.

Is this the same cable as A80297?

No. A80296 is the Fistmic adapter 12 to 8 pins. A80297 is a 12 to 12-pin adapter cable with passive speaker output. The two references do not serve the same purpose.

Which Raymarine VHF radios is it compatible with?

It is referenced in the VHF Raymarine Ray60/Ray70 and Ray63/Ray73 ecosystem depending on microphone configurations. The exact model and installed connector must be checked before ordering.

Does this cable require power or software configuration?

No. This is a passive adapter cable: it does not require separate power or software configuration. Simply ensure connectors and equipment are compatible.

Can it be used to significantly extend a microphone post?

No, this cable is 0.4 m long. For a proper RayMic or Fistmic handset extension, use the Raymarine extension cable matched to your VHF model and length.

What to check before ordering?

Check the VHF’s reference, the radio-side connector type, the handset/combined unit connector, and the exact requirement: 12-to-8-pin adapter, extension cable, or cable with speaker output.
