Kabel BlueNet™ 15 m

This cable is an essential component designed to establish a high-speed marine network. It connects Garmin BlueNet devices together, or links them to a Garmin BlueNet 20 switch and a Garmin BlueNet 30 bridge, ensuring a reliable and high-performance communication infrastructure for modern marine electronics systems.

The length of this Garmin BlueNet™ network cable is 15 metres, which is approximately 50 feet.

This cable features Garmin BlueNet technology, enabling connection speeds up to 1 Gbps. This capacity supports a greater number of video streams, improved resolutions, and integration of more sophisticated sensors and devices.

The Garmin BlueNet cable uses 4 twisted pairs combined for data transmission and Wake on LAN (WoL) functionality, unlike the older Garmin Marine Network cables which used 2 twisted pairs for data and 2 pairs for power-on functionality. Additionally, BlueNet cables use compact, water-resistant marine connectors similar in size to NMEA 2000 connectors, whereas the older network used standard RJ45 connectors requiring large waterproof locking collars.

Yes, the Garmin BlueNet cable connectors are compact and specifically designed for the marine environment, offering superior water resistance and better durability compared to standard RJ45 connectors.

Yes, this cable integrates Garmin BlueNet technology, which uses 4 twisted pairs combined for data transmission and Wake on LAN (WoL) functionality.

Yes, thanks to its 1 Gbps connection capacity, this cable supports a larger number of video streams, improved resolutions, and more advanced sensors and devices, such as the LiveScope™ system or GMR™ xHD3 radars.

Yes, Garmin BlueNet’s compact, water-resistant marine-grade connectors—comparable in size to NMEA 2000® connectors—are specifically designed for the marine environment, offering better cable management and superior durability compared to the standard RJ45 connectors used in the old Garmin Marine Network.

No, this cable is not directly compatible with existing Garmin Marine Network devices. To connect Garmin Marine Network devices to a Garmin BlueNet network, you must use a Garmin BlueNet 30 gateway.

No. Although Garmin BlueNet cables look similar and have connectors of comparable size to NMEA 2000 cables, they are not the same and cannot be used interchangeably.

This cable is designed to connect Garmin BlueNet devices to each other, or to link them to a Garmin BlueNet 20 switch and a Garmin BlueNet 30 gateway, in order to create a communication infrastructure for modern marine electronics systems.

Yes, you must include a Garmin BlueNet chartplotter, such as a GPSMAP 9000 series chartplotter, when building a Garmin BlueNet network. Without a BlueNet chartplotter available, all devices must be connected using the older Garmin Marine Network cables and adapters.

Yes, Garmin BlueNet technology is compatible with third-party devices, such as IP cameras, without requiring a Garmin Marine Network isolation coupler.

You can identify Garmin BlueNet devices and cables by examining the ports and connectors. Garmin BlueNet cable connectors are compact, and Garmin BlueNet device ports may be entirely black on some older units and blue on newer and current models.

Connecting an old Garmin Marine Network device directly to a Garmin BlueNet chartplotter or a Garmin BlueNet 20 switch is not possible and will result in poor network performance. If you plan to connect an old Garmin Marine Network device to a Garmin BlueNet network, you must install a Garmin BlueNet 30 bridge.

You must connect only one Garmin BlueNet 30 bridge to a Garmin BlueNet network. Connecting more than one bridge will cause network performance issues.

All Garmin BlueNet devices must be connected to each other or to a Garmin BlueNet 20 switch. Only a Garmin BlueNet network device or a Garmin BlueNet 20 switch can connect to the Garmin BlueNet 30 gateway to communicate with Garmin Marine Network (legacy) devices.

Yes, Garmin BlueNet network cables feature smaller connectors designed to simplify cable routing and connection maintenance in a marine environment, compared to the larger connectors of the older Garmin Marine Network.
