Cablu SeaTalk NG / Devicenet NMEA2000 femelă (120mm)

The Raymarine A06079 cable is an essential adapter designed to interconnect marine navigation systems. Its primary function is to enable communication between a Raymarine proprietary SeaTalkng network and NMEA2000-compatible equipment using the DeviceNet connector.

Main features:

It is a female adapter cable.Its length is 120 mm.It facilitates the integration of NMEA2000 sensors or displays into an existing SeaTalkng network.

Yes, absolutely. The Raymarine A06079 cable is specifically designed for this task. It acts as a bridge, allowing direct connection of NMEA2000 devices (equipped with a DeviceNet connector) to a Raymarine SeaTalkng network. This enables you to extend the capabilities of your SeaTalkng system by integrating NMEA2000 equipment.

Although both are communication protocols for marine electronics, there is a key distinction:

SeaTalkng is a proprietary network protocol developed by Raymarine. It is optimized for interconnecting Raymarine products.NMEA 2000 is an open industry standard widely adopted, defined by the National Marine Electronics Association. It enables interoperability between equipment from different manufacturers.The A06079 cable is specifically designed to create compatibility between these two network architectures.

No, Raymarine cable A06079 is not designed for direct compatibility with older SeaTalk(1) systems. This cable is an adapter between SeaTalkng and NMEA2000 (DeviceNet). To connect SeaTalk(1) products to a SeaTalkng network, other types of specific adapters or gateways (often built into certain Raymarine instruments such as the ST70) are required.

SeaTalkng cables are color-coded to simplify identification and ensure correct connection:

Backbone cables (or the network’s main backbone) are blue. Spur cables (or drop cables), which connect individual devices to the backbone, are white. The system power cable is typically identified by a red stripe.

The Raymarine A06079 cable is an adapter cable. It is designed to connect to a spur port of a SeaTalkng network and attach a NMEA2000 device. Although it is not a standard spur cable per se, it uses the spur interface to integrate a NMEA2000 device into the SeaTalkng system.

This adapter cable uses a female DeviceNet connector for the NMEA2000 interface. The NMEA2000 standard uses DeviceNet-type connectors, and this cable is specifically designed to fit them, allowing connection of NMEA2000 devices equipped with a male DeviceNet connector.

Yes, it is imperative to install terminators in a SeaTalkng system to ensure correct data transmission. A terminator must be placed at each end of the main backbone cable of the SeaTalkng network. The A06079 cable itself is not a terminator, but it connects to a network that must be properly terminated.
