Kabel masztowy Simnet → Micro-C – 20 metrów

This is an essential marine network cable designed to connect B&G SimNet wind sensors, such as models 508 and 608, to a modern NMEA 2000 navigation network. It enables direct and transparent transmission of wind data over the NMEA 2000 bus.

This cable is 20 meters (approximately 66 feet) long, specifically suited for mast installations to reach the NMEA 2000 network without intermediate junctions.

The cable is fitted with two distinct types of connectors:

One end has a SimNet connector, designed for direct connection to B&G SimNet wind sensors. The other end features a male Micro-C connector for integration into an NMEA 2000 network.

Yes, absolutely. This cable is made with high-quality materials to ensure increased durability and reliability at sea. Its robust design is optimized for outdoor use and permanent installation in the mast, resisting mechanical stress, UV rays, and saline environments.

The weight of this cable is 1.09 kg.

This cable is manufactured in China.

This cable is a B&G product, a specialist in sailing navigation electronics.

The reference number (SKU) for this product is 000-10757-001.

This cable is specifically designed to be compatible with B&G SimNet wind sensors, including models 508 and 608.

It connects to a NMEA 2000 navigation network. This connection enables seamless transmission of wind data over the NMEA 2000 bus, making the information accessible to all NMEA 2000-compatible navigation displays and electronic equipment.

The SimNet end of the cable is proprietary to B&G (Navico Group) and is designed for their sensors. However, the Micro-C end connects to a standard NMEA 2000 network, meaning the transmitted data will be accessible to all NMEA 2000-compatible equipment, regardless of brand.

No, this cable is specifically designed for NMEA 2000 networks and is not directly compatible with NMEA 0183 networks. To interconnect these two types of networks, an interface or NMEA 2000 to NMEA 0183 converter would be required.

Yes, the Micro-C connector is a standardized connector type for NMEA 2000 networks. It is commonly used for drop cable connections and to connect devices to the network backbone.

Yes, its 20-metre length and robust design are specifically suited for direct and permanent installation in the mast. This minimizes connections and ensures a reliable long-term connection.

Physically installing the cable in the mast may require basic tools for routing and securing the cables. However, SimNet and Micro-C connectors are designed for simple and secure connections without needing special tools for the electrical connection of the connectors themselves.

This cable provides a direct and simplified connectivity solution between the SimNet wind sensor and the NMEA 2000 network. Its length and specific connectors eliminate the need for multiple complex junctions inside the mast, making installation faster and more reliable.

Yes, its robust design and the use of high-quality materials make it particularly resistant to demanding marine conditions. It is built to withstand prolonged exposure to UV rays and the corrosive environment of saltwater, ensuring its durability.

It is strongly advised not to cut pre-assembled network cables like this one. Cutting the cable could compromise its shielding integrity, water resistance, and the reliability of data transmission, which may lead to network malfunctions. It is preferable to use the appropriate length or choose another available length.

No, this cable is passive and does not require external power. It is designed to transmit data and power directly from the NMEA 2000 network to the SimNet sensor (and vice versa for data), as the NMEA 2000 network provides the necessary power to connected devices.

While standard NMEA 2000 cables can be used to extend the network backbone, this product is a specific drop cable. Its primary function is to directly connect a SimNet device (such as a wind sensor) to the NMEA 2000 backbone via a Micro-C connector, providing an integrated and optimized solution for B&G sensors.
