NMEA 2000® daugiašakio tipo T jungtis, 4 jungtys

The Garmin NMEA 2000 multiport T-connector (part number 010-12935-11) is a network component designed to optimize NMEA 2000 network architecture. It features four micro NMEA 2000 ports, allowing up to four devices to be centralized at a single backbone junction.

The main difference lies in the number of drop ports. A standard NMEA 2000 T-connector (such as the Garmin 010-11078-00) only provides a single drop port to connect one device to the backbone. This multiport connector, however, features four ports, allowing up to four devices to be connected simultaneously from a single point on the backbone, consolidating the connections.

This multiport T-connector is equipped with four micro NMEA 2000 ports, allowing you to connect up to four NMEA 2000 devices to your network via a single junction on the backbone.

Using this multiport connector offers several advantages:

Centralization: It allows connecting multiple devices at a single backbone point, reducing cable clutter.

Ease of installation: It reduces the number of individual T-connectors needed, simplifying assembly and wiring.

Robustness: Its rigid design minimizes stress points and breakage risks often associated with individual T-connector assemblies.

Reliability: Made with marine-grade components, it ensures increased durability in a nautical environment.

Yes, absolutely. The Garmin NMEA 2000 multiport T-connector is built with marine-grade components, ensuring long-term reliability and resistance to nautical environment conditions.

The Garmin multiport T-connector has a rigid design. This rigidity is an asset, as it helps minimize stress points and breakage risks, thereby improving the overall resilience of your NMEA 2000 network.

Yes, this connector is fully compliant with the NMEA 2000 communication standard. It uses NMEA 2000 micro connectors, making it compatible with all certified NMEA 2000 devices, sensors, and cables using this connector type.

No, NMEA 2000 is a different communication standard from NMEA 0183. This connector is specifically designed for NMEA 2000 networks and is not directly compatible with NMEA 0183 devices without using a NMEA 0183 to NMEA 2000 gateway or converter.

This NMEA 2000 multiport T-connector uses NMEA 2000 micro connectors. It is designed to integrate seamlessly with other NMEA 2000 micro connectors, cables, and devices.

Yes, NMEA 2000 is a universal communication standard for marine electronics. As long as other brands' products are NMEA 2000-certified and use NMEA 2000 micro connectors, this Garmin multiport connector will be compatible and function correctly within your network.

This connector must be installed on the backbone (the main backbone) of your NMEA 2000 network. T-connectors, whether standard or multiport, connect laterally to the backbone, while devices are connected to the spur ports located on top.

Each NMEA 2000 device must be connected to one of the four drop ports (the top ports) of the multiport T-connector using an NMEA 2000 drop cable. Drop cables must never be connected to the sides of the T-connector, which are reserved for the backbone.

No, the multiport T-connector itself does not require a separate power supply. It is part of the NMEA 2000 backbone, which is powered by a dedicated NMEA 2000 power cable connected to a T-connector on the backbone.

Yes, the NMEA 2000 network as a whole requires proper termination. Two 120-ohm terminators (one male and one female) must be installed at both ends of the NMEA 2000 backbone to ensure signal integrity. The multiport connector itself is not a terminator, but it integrates into the terminated backbone.

No, this connector is designed to create multiple tap points for devices. To extend the main NMEA 2000 backbone cable, you must use dedicated NMEA 2000 backbone cables that connect to the sides of the T-connectors, not to the tap ports.

NMEA 2000 drop cables connecting a device to the backbone (via the multiport connector) are limited to a maximum length of 6 metres (20 feet) to ensure proper network operation.

By centralizing up to four device connections at a single point, this connector reduces the need for multiple individual T-connectors and longer backbone cables to group them. This allows for a cleaner network architecture, minimizes connection points, and reduces overall installation time.

The multiport T-connector itself does not draw significant electrical power (LEN). However, each device connected to its drop ports will have its own LEN value. It is important to sum the LEN values of all devices connected to the network to ensure the NMEA 2000 power supply is sufficient and correctly distributed.

Yes, the dedicated NMEA 2000 power cable must be connected to the top port of a T-connector (such as one of the spur ports on this multiport connector if not used by a device). It must never be connected to the sides of the T-connector. Power must be 12 Vdc and pass through a switch.

Yes, as a Garmin product, this NMEA 2000 multiport T-connector is covered by the manufacturer's standard warranty. For specific warranty details, please refer to Garmin's provided information.
