Cyclone 15M Power Cable

This power cable is an essential component designed to connect the VCM100 voltage converter module to the radar scanner base of Raymarine Cyclone and Cyclone Pro systems. It provides stable and reliable electrical power to the radar.

The Raymarine A80653 power cable has a length of 15 meters, providing flexibility for positioning the VCM100 module and the radar pedestal on your vessel.

This cable is specifically designed to be compatible with Raymarine Cyclone series radar systems, including Cyclone and Cyclone Pro models.

Yes, the A80653 power cable is specifically sized and designed to connect to the VCM100 voltage converter module (reference E70648), which is required to power the Cyclone and Cyclone Pro radars.

Using an original Raymarine power cable is critical for several reasons:

It is optimized for the power and signal characteristics of Raymarine radar systems, preventing interference and voltage drops. It ensures compliance with the system's safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards. It guarantees optimal and reliable performance of your Cyclone or Cyclone Pro radar.

During installation, it is important to follow cable routing guidelines. Ensure the cable's bend radius is respected, protect it from mechanical stress, and keep it away from sources of electromagnetic interference. The cable's shielding must also be properly managed.

Yes, the Cyclone radar installation documentation emphasizes the importance of cable shielding to ensure EMC compliance and system performance. The A80653 cable is designed to meet these shielding requirements.

Raymarine Cyclone general cabling documentation mentions the use of ferrite chokes to minimize interference. It is recommended to follow the specific installation instructions in the Cyclone radar manual to determine whether additional ferrites are required for your setup.

Yes, the Cyclone radar system installation documentation specifies grounding requirements for the VCM100 module. It is essential to follow these guidelines to ensure system safety and performance.

The A80653 cable is a pre-assembled, optimized 15-metre power cable. It is strongly recommended not to cut or modify it, as this could affect its electrical characteristics, compliance with standards, and the performance of your radar system. Any modification could also void system compliance.

The Cyclone and Cyclone Pro radars, which use this power cable, are compatible with Raymarine LightHouse MFDs. Ensure your MFD has the required software version.

Yes, as a Raymarine product, the A80653 power cable is designed to withstand harsh marine conditions, including moisture, temperature variations, and vibrations, ensuring long-term durability and reliability.

Yes, as an OEM component specifically sized, cable A80653 significantly contributes to compliance with the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards of the Cyclone radar system. Its use helps prevent interference and ensures proper operation of the entire installation.

Cable A80653 connects directly to the Cyclone radar scanner base. The installation documentation provides detailed wiring diagrams to ensure correct assembly.

Product A80653 is specifically a 15-metre Cyclone power cable. To check for other available lengths, consult the Raymarine catalogue or contact an authorized dealer.

Yes, the Cyclone radar installation documentation covers cable routing options, including "through-hull wiring". Cable A80653 is designed to integrate into these types of installations while complying with specific guidelines.

The A80653 cable is a pre-assembled power cable designed to meet the wire gauge specifications of the VCM100, ensuring compliance with Raymarine’s installation guidelines. It is sized to meet the power requirements of Cyclone radars.

No, this cable is specifically designed and optimized for powering Raymarine Cyclone and Cyclone Pro radar systems via the VCM100 module. Using it with other equipment may cause compatibility, performance, or safety issues.

It is crucial to respect the minimum bending radius specified in the installation guide to avoid damaging the internal conductors and the shielding of the cable. An excessive bending radius can compromise the cable's integrity and the performance of the radar system.
