Cablu de prelungire CCU - 15 m

This extension cable is designed to extend connectivity between the autopilot control unit (CCU) and the electronic control unit (ECU) of Garmin marine autopilot systems. It allows for more flexible installation of components aboard your vessel.

The Garmin CCU extension cable has a length of 15 meters, which is approximately 49.2 feet.

This cable is particularly useful for installations where the autopilot control unit (CCU) must be mounted more than 3 meters (9.8 feet) from the electronic control unit (ECU). This is often the case on central consoles, yachts, or boats with multiple helm stations, where distances between components can be significant.

Yes, this cable is made from durable marine-grade materials. It is designed to withstand harsh marine conditions, including UV exposure and corrosion, ensuring a long service life in demanding environments.

No, this cable is designed for simple "Plug-and-Play" installation. It does not require complex splices, which greatly simplifies the connection process between the CCU and the ECU.

The cable is fitted with a quarter-turn collar design. This mechanism ensures a tight fit and vibration resistance, minimizing the risk of accidental disconnection in demanding marine environments.

This cable is compatible with Garmin marine autopilot systems that use an autopilot control unit (CCU) and an electronic control unit (ECU), such as the GHP Reactor series.

No, this cable is specifically designed as an extension cable for the control unit of Garmin marine autopilot systems (CCU). It is not intended for use with other types of Garmin equipment.

The product reference for this Garmin CCU extension cable, 15 meters long, is 010-11156-01.

No, this cable is a proprietary Garmin accessory specifically designed for Garmin marine autopilot systems using a CCU/ECU interface. It is not compatible with equipment from other brands.

It is not recommended to cut or modify the length of this cable. This could compromise its integrity, resistance to marine conditions, and functionality, and potentially void any intended compatibility or performance.

Connecting multiple extension cables can potentially affect signal quality and autopilot system performance. It is generally recommended to use a single cable of the appropriate length to ensure optimal reliability. If a length greater than 15 meters is required, consult the specific documentation for your Garmin autopilot or a professional.

Thanks to its construction from marine-grade UV-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials, this cable is designed for reliable use in the marine environment, whether exposed to the elements or installed inside the boat.

Using an official Garmin extension cable ensures perfect compatibility with your Garmin autopilot systems, simplified "Plug-and-Play" installation, and robust design compliant with the brand's marine-grade standards.

When routing the cable, it is important to protect it from sharp edges, excessive heat sources, and potential pinch points. Ensure there is no excessive tension on the connectors and that the cable is properly secured to prevent any movement caused by the boat's vibrations.

Garmin marine communication cables are generally designed to minimize electromagnetic interference. While the specific shielding is not detailed, being an official accessory guarantees optimal performance in a boat's electronic environment.

The CCU (Course Computer Unit) is the autopilot control unit containing heading detection and processing electronics. The ECU (Electronic Control Unit) is the electronic control unit that interfaces with the boat's steering system, such as the hydraulic pump or electric actuator. This cable ensures the communication link between these two essential components.

Although the cable is "Plug-and-Play", the specific installation instructions for your Garmin autopilot system (which would include connecting this cable) are typically provided with the autopilot main unit or are available on the Garmin website.

This official Garmin extension cable is designed to maintain signal integrity and the performance of your autopilot. As long as it is properly installed and used within the recommended limits, it should not degrade your system's performance.

This 15-meter cable is specifically designed for installations requiring a significant distance. If your CCU and ECU are very close (less than 3 meters), a shorter cable or the standard cable supplied with the main system would be more appropriate. Using a cable that is too long for a short distance is not problematic in itself, but a shorter cable could be more practical.
