SeaTalk NG cable 2.2m Raymarine Axiom

This cable connects a CYCLOPS load sensor to a Raymarine navigation network via the SeaTalk NG protocol. It enables real-time display of rigging voltage data (measured by the CYCLOPS sensor) directly on a Raymarine Axiom multifunction display.

This cable is specifically designed and optimized for the Raymarine Axiom multifunction display range. While it uses the SeaTalk NG protocol, which is common to many newer Raymarine devices, compatibility and data display are guaranteed for the Axiom series.

The installation is plug-and-play. The cable connects to a free spur port on your SeaTalk NG backbone network. Simply screw it onto a T-connector or a junction box on the network. No complex configuration is required for the physical connection.

The length of this cable is 2.2 meters.

No, this cable is not compatible with Garmin or B&G systems. It uses SeaTalk NG connectors, which are proprietary to Raymarine. Other brands typically use standard NMEA 2000 (DeviceNet) connectors, which are physically different.

Although the SeaTalk NG data protocol is based on the NMEA 2000 standard, the connectors differ. This cable features Raymarine-specific connectors, which are smaller and provide a watertight and secure connection within a Raymarine network. A standard NMEA 2000 cable will not physically plug into a SeaTalk NG port without an adapter.

No, no specific tools are required for installation. The SeaTalk NG cable connectors are designed to be screwed and secured by hand.

This cable transmits the load and voltage data measured by your CYCLOPS sensor. It allows you to view critical information about tension in your rigging and sails directly on your Axiom display.

Yes, this cable is the official solution to integrate any CYCLOPS load sensor (via its data bridge) into a Raymarine SeaTalk NG network.

If 2.2 meters is insufficient, you can extend the length using SeaTalk NG extension cables and additional T-connectors or junction blocks, available in the Raymarine accessories range.

Integrating this data allows you to:

Optimize performance: Adjust your sails and rigging based on precise tension data to maximize speed.

Repeat proven settings: Easily retrieve tension settings that have worked well before.

Sail safely: Monitor loads on your rigging to avoid overloading and potential failures.

No, it does not connect directly to the display. It connects to your boat's SeaTalk NG network via a T-connector or a junction box. The Axiom display itself is connected to this same network, allowing it to receive the data transmitted by the cable.

Once the sensor is connected to the network via this cable, it should be automatically detected. You will then need to customize your Axiom display by adding a data box or creating a page on your dashboard to display the load values transmitted by the CYCLOPS sensor.

No, the cable itself does not require power. The electrical power needed for the sensor operation is supplied by the SeaTalk NG network to which it is connected.

Yes, this cable is fully compatible with the entire Raymarine Axiom range, including Axiom, Axiom+, Axiom Pro, and Axiom XL models, as they all share the same SeaTalk NG network architecture.

Yes, this cable is manufactured to Raymarine’s marine equipment standards. Its connectors are waterproof and it is designed to withstand harsh conditions encountered at sea, such as humidity, UV rays, and salt spray.

No. This is a spur cable. Terminators are only required at both ends of the main backbone cable. Adding this cable does not change the need for two terminators on the backbone.

No, this cable is designed to connect a single device (the gateway of a CYCLOPS sensor) to the SeaTalk NG network. If you have multiple sensors, each sensor (or its gateway) will require its own connection to the network via a dedicated t-connector cable.

This cable is primarily designed to transmit data from the CYCLOPS sensor to the Raymarine Axiom network and display. Communication on a SeaTalk NG / NMEA 2000 network is bidirectional for network management, but the main function of this cable is to display the sensor data.

The CYCLOPS AC03 cable measures exactly 2.2 metres. This length is usually sufficient to connect a load sensor to a SeaTalk NG backbone near a Raymarine Axiom display.

Yes, this cable is designed to be compatible with the entire Raymarine Axiom multifunction display range, including Axiom, Axiom Pro, and Axiom XL models. It uses the SeaTalk NG protocol, which is the standard communication network for these devices.

This cable is specifically optimized for Raymarine Axiom displays. However, as it uses the SeaTalk NG protocol, it can technically work with other Raymarine devices compatible with SeaTalk NG (such as the eS, gS, or a-Series). For full compatibility, we recommend checking that your device supports the SeaTalk NG network.

Although SeaTalk NG is based on the NMEA 2000 protocol, it is a proprietary implementation by Raymarine. This AC03 cable is a dedicated cable, optimized for direct and lossless data integration between CYCLOPS sensors and Raymarine Axiom displays. It ensures immediate data recognition for load data, unlike a generic NMEA 2000 cable which may require adapters or additional configuration.

This depends on your current setup. If your SeaTalk NG backbone has a free port, you can connect the cable directly. Otherwise, you will need a standard SeaTalk NG T-connector to add this cable to your network. The AC03 cable terminates in male/female connectors compatible with the SeaTalk NG system.

Yes, this cable is designed for marine use. It is made from materials resistant to UV, saltwater, and harsh marine environments. The connectors are watertight, ensuring a reliable connection even in wet conditions.

Yes, absolutely. This AC03 cable is specifically designed to connect CYCLOPS load sensors (such as those measuring shroud or stay tension) to Raymarine Axiom displays. It ensures reliable transmission of tension data.

The cable is generally supplied without a detailed manual, as its installation is very straightforward. However, basic instructions are often included. For optimal installation, we recommend consulting the manual for your CYCLOPS sensor or Raymarine Axiom display.

SeaTalk NG is based on the NMEA 2000 protocol but uses proprietary Raymarine connectors. This cable is therefore designed for SeaTalk NG networks. To integrate it into a standard NMEA 2000 network, you will need a SeaTalk NG to NMEA 2000 adapter.

Yes, this CYCLOPS AC03 cable is covered by the manufacturer's warranty. For details on warranty terms and duration, refer to the information provided with the product or contact our customer service.

This specific AC03 model is offered in a 2.2-meter length. For other lengths, please check our SeaTalk NG cable range or contact our sales department for custom options.
