Kabel magistrali/odgałęźny NMEA 2000® (0,3 m)

This versatile cable is designed to extend and connect your NMEA 2000-compatible marine electronic systems. It can be used either as a backbone cable to extend the NMEA 2000 network’s main communication path or as a drop cable to connect individual devices to the backbone. Its short 0.3-meter length is ideal for close-range connections and optimizing onboard cable management.

This cable is 0.3 metres long (about 1 foot). This length is particularly suitable for short connections and to reduce cable clutter in your marine installation.

This cable is fitted with NMEA 2000 micro male-female connectors. These connectors are standardized for the NMEA 2000 network and ensure a reliable and secure connection.

Yes, this cable is compatible with all Garmin devices certified for NMEA 2000, as well as with those from other manufacturers using micro NMEA 2000 connectors. The NMEA 2000 standard ensures interoperability between equipment.

Yes, this 0.3 m cable can be used as a drop cable. A drop cable is used to connect a NMEA 2000 device to the backbone of the network. The maximum allowed length for a drop cable is 6 meters (20 feet), so this 0.3 m cable is perfectly suited for this use.

Yes, this 0.3 m cable can be used as a backbone cable. Backbone cables are used to extend the main communication path of the NMEA 2000 network. Backbone cables can be up to 100 meters long, and a 0.3 m cable is an option for short extensions within the backbone.

To connect a device to the NMEA 2000 network with this cable, you must use a T-connector. The drop cable (such as this 0.3 m cable) must connect to the top of the T-connector, and the device connects to the other end of the cable. The T-connector itself is part of the network backbone.

Yes, this Garmin cable is manufactured using marine-grade materials. It is designed to withstand saltwater environments, vibrations, humidity, and UV exposure, ensuring reliable connectivity and long-lasting performance.

NMEA 2000 is a "plug-and-play" communication standard used to connect marine sensors and displays on boats. This cable is an essential component of the NMEA 2000 network, enabling the interconnection of various devices and sensors so they can communicate with each other.

A 0.3 m length is ideal for short connections, for example when the device is very close to the NMEA 2000 backbone or another network component. For longer distances between the device and the backbone, longer drop cables (up to 6 meters) are available.

No, NMEA 2000 connections are designed to be "plug-and-play". This cable is equipped with micro male-female connectors that simply screw onto the corresponding connectors on devices and T-connectors without requiring special tools for the connection itself.

A backbone cable is used to extend the main communication path of the NMEA 2000 network, connecting the sides of the T-connectors. A drop cable is used to connect an individual device (such as a sensor or display) to the backbone, by attaching to the top of a T-connector. This 0.3 m cable is short enough to be used in either role.

Yes, this cable is designed to be compatible with Garmin marine systems, including the ECHOMAP Plus and GPSMAP series, provided they have NMEA 2000 ports using micro connectors.

Proper termination of the NMEA 2000 network is critical for its correct operation. Two terminators (one male and one female) must be installed at the ends of the backbone. Using this 0.3 m cable does not negate the need for proper termination at the backbone ends.

This cable is a data and communication cable. While the NMEA 2000 network can supply power to devices, this cable itself does not serve as the main power cable for the network. Power to the NMEA 2000 network must be provided by a dedicated NMEA 2000 power cable, connected to a 12 Vdc source and to the top of a T-connector.

The maximum length for an NMEA 2000 drop cable is 6 meters (20 feet). This 0.3 m cable easily complies with this limit and is ideal for short connections.

The maximum length of an individual NMEA 2000 backbone cable is 100 meters (328 feet). This 0.3 m cable can be used for short extensions within the backbone.

Yes, NMEA 2000 connectors are designed for the marine environment. When properly screwed and connected, they provide a seal to protect the connections from moisture and salt water.

Its short length of 0.3 metres and marine-grade design give it some flexibility, making it practical for installations in tight spaces where careful cable management is required.

The NMEA 2000 power cable must be connected to the top of a T-connector on the network backbone. This 0.3 m cable, whether used as a drop cable or backbone extension, does not replace the dedicated power cable. It is used to connect devices or extend the backbone, while power is managed separately via a dedicated T-connector.
