5-jaðars tengill SeaTalk NG

The A06064 5-way connector serves as a central junction point for creating or extending a Raymarine SeaTalk NG navigation network. It allows multiple instruments to be connected simply and neatly to the network backbone, replacing the need for multiple T-connectors.

The connector ports have specific colors to prevent wiring errors:

Blue ports (2): They are exclusively reserved for backbone cables to build or extend the main network. White ports (3): They are used for spur cables that connect individual devices (displays, sensors, etc.) and power to the network.

Yes, this is possible but requires an adapter. Raymarine's SeaTalk NG network uses the same data protocol as NMEA 2000, but the physical connectors differ. To connect a device from another brand with standard NMEA 2000 connectivity, you will need a SeaTalk NG to NMEA 2000 adapter cable.

Yes, like any SeaTalk NG or NMEA 2000 network, the backbone must be terminated at both ends with a terminator. If this 5-way connector is located at an end of your network, one of the blue ports must be connected to the backbone cable and the other blue port must be closed with a SeaTalk NG terminator.

The SeaTalk NG network is powered via a dedicated power cable. This cable must be connected to one of the three white ports (spur/derivation ports) on the connector. It is essential to have only one power source for the entire network.

You can connect up to three devices or instruments to this connector via its three white spur ports. If you use one of these ports for network power, you will have two ports left for your instruments.

No, not directly. SeaTalk NG and SeaTalk1 are different protocols and wiring systems. To integrate SeaTalk1 devices into a SeaTalk NG network, you must use a Raymarine SeaTalk1 to SeaTalk NG conversion gateway (reference E22158).

Yes. To extend your network, you can connect two 5-way blocks (or more) using a SeaTalk NG backbone cable (blue cable). Simply connect one blue port from each block with this cable to extend your network backbone.

No, the 5-way A06064 connector is sold separately. The backbone cables (blue), branch cables (white), end caps, and power cable must be purchased separately according to your installation requirements.

In accordance with SeaTalk NG and NMEA 2000 standards, the maximum length for a single spur cable must not exceed 6 meters. It is recommended to use the shortest possible cable length to connect your devices to ensure network integrity.

No, this connector is specifically designed with Raymarine's proprietary SeaTalk NG wiring. It cannot be inserted directly into a backbone using standard NMEA 2000 connectors (DeviceNet type). It is intended for Raymarine installations.

The 5-way connector housing has mounting holes. You can simply screw it to a bulkhead or a flat surface inside a console or in a technical compartment for a secure and stable installation.

The SeaTalk NG 5-way connector (reference A06064) weighs approximately 0.02 kg (20 grams), making it very lightweight and easy to install anywhere on the boat.

The packaging for reference A06064 contains only the 5-way SeaTalk NG connector block. All cables, terminators, and other accessories are sold separately.

Yes, absolutely. As a Raymarine product, the A06064 connector is manufactured with robust materials and sealed joints to resist humidity, vibrations, and water spray, ensuring reliable connections in marine conditions.

Yes, you can connect a compatible Raymarine GPS antenna (SeaTalk NG) to one of the three white ports (spur) on this connector using the appropriate length SeaTalk NG spur cable.

The 5-way block offers several advantages:

Reduced footprint: It is more compact than a series of T-connectors, ideal for tight spaces.Simplified installation: Fewer parts to assemble, making assembly faster.Increased reliability: It reduces the number of connection points, minimizing the risk of poor contacts.

It is recommended to install it in a dry and accessible location, such as behind a console or dashboard. Its compact design makes it ideal for areas where space is limited, allowing you to centralize connections for a group of nearby instruments.

No, the physical connectors are different. You must use Raymarine SeaTalk NG cables (with blue connectors for the backbone and white for the drop cables) to connect directly to this block.

Yes, the A06064 connector and the entire SeaTalk NG wiring system are designed for the marine environment and are splash-proof, ensuring reliable connections even in wet conditions.
