<h3>Actisense: Marine Network Technology You Can Trust</h3><p>When it comes to building a reliable onboard marine electronics network, few names carry the authority of <strong>Actisense</strong>. Headquartered in the United Kingdom and distributed in over 45 countries, Actisense has spent decades earning its reputation as a go-to specialist in NMEA network technology. Their focus is singular and deliberate: designing intelligent sensors, smart interfaces, and data communication solutions that keep vessels safer, better-connected, and easier to manage on the water.</p><p>At the heart of what Actisense does is an unwavering commitment to the NMEA standards &mdash; both NMEA 0183 and the newer NMEA 2000 protocol. Whether you&apos;re a weekend sailor looking to integrate a chartplotter with depth sensors, or a commercial vessel operator managing a complex multi-device network, Actisense has purpose-built hardware and software to meet the challenge. Their product ecosystem spans data gateways, protocol converters, Wi-Fi bridges, multiplexers, network diagnostic tools, and the physical infrastructure that ties it all together.</p><h3>The A2K Cable &amp; Connector Range</h3><p>A reliable NMEA 2000 network is only as strong as its physical backbone. Actisense&apos;s award-winning <a href="/13789-actisense-nmea-2000-interface-cables-and-connectors-200717">NMEA 2000 Interface Cables and Connectors</a> &mdash; the A2K range &mdash; are engineered with specialist interconnect knowledge that goes beyond simply meeting the NMEA 2000 specification. From T-pieces and terminators to bulk cable reels and field-fit connectors, every component in the A2K lineup is designed to work seamlessly together, ensuring signal integrity across the entire network. These cables and connectors are a staple for professional marine installers who need dependable, high-quality infrastructure components they can trust voyage after voyage.</p><h3>Lowrance Network Connectivity</h3><p>For boaters running Lowrance-based electronics systems, Actisense provides compatible <a href="/13789-actisense-lowrance-network-cables-connectors-adaptors-202199">Lowrance Network Cables, Connectors &amp; Adaptors</a> that bridge Actisense&apos;s NMEA 2000 hardware with Lowrance chartplotters and multifunction displays. Because NMEA 2000 is an open standard, Actisense connectivity solutions integrate naturally into Lowrance networks, making it straightforward to add sensors, gateways, or expand an existing setup without starting from scratch.</p><h3>Diagnostic Interface Cables</h3><p>Understanding what&apos;s happening on your NMEA 2000 network is critical for troubleshooting and optimization. Actisense offers <a href="/13789-actisense-diagnostic-scan-tool-cable-18035">Diagnostic Scan Tool Cables</a> that allow technicians and advanced boaters to connect a PC directly to the NMEA 2000 bus, read live network data, identify device conflicts, and configure connected instruments. Products like the NGX-1-USB gateway serve double duty as both a PC interface and a protocol conversion tool, making them an indispensable part of any serious marine installer&apos;s toolkit.</p><h3>Why Actisense?</h3><ul><li><strong>NMEA Expertise:</strong> Deep, application-level knowledge of both NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 standards informs every product design.</li><li><strong>Global Reach:</strong> Sold and supported through a certified dealer network spanning more than 45 countries.</li><li><strong>Build Quality:</strong> Robust, intelligent designs engineered to exceed &mdash; not just meet &mdash; NMEA 2000 specifications.</li><li><strong>Versatility:</strong> Solutions for leisure sailors, commercial operators, and even precision agriculture applications.</li><li><strong>Proven Reliability:</strong> A track record of long-term performance trusted by installers, naval architects, and everyday boaters alike.</li></ul><p>From the physical cables and connectors that form the backbone of your network, to the smart gateways that translate and distribute data across your vessel, Actisense provides a comprehensive, cohesive ecosystem for anyone serious about marine electronics networking.</p>

Product Details

The Actisense A2K-BULK-100MID is a 100-metre NMEA 2000 Mid bulk cable reel engineered for building or extending marine electronics networks with flexible backbone runs up to 250 metres. Designed using Actisense's specialist interconnect and NMEA expertise, this Mid-grade cable delivers robust signal integrity and reliable power transmission in demanding marine environments.

The cable features five conductors within a single waterproof jacket: dedicated power and ground wires, two signal (data) wires, and a drain wire. The drain wire connects to an AL Mylar tape shield that protects all conductors from external Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) and minimizes RFI emissions from the cable itself.

Key Features:

  • 100-metre reel of NMEA 2000 certified Mid backbone cable
  • Supports NMEA 2000 backbone runs up to 250 metres
  • Five-wire waterproof construction: power, ground, two signal wires, and drain wire
  • 22 AWG (19-strand tinned copper) power pair conductors for reliable power delivery
  • 24 AWG data pair conductors with foam PE insulation for high signal integrity
  • 37 AWG tinned copper braid with minimum 65% braid coverage
  • Black PVC jacket, 6.85mm ± 0.254mm outer diameter
  • AL Mylar tape shield over signal pair — 120Ω ± 10% impedance
  • Voltage rating: 300V; Max current: 4A
  • Overall DCR (braid + tape + drain): 3.2Ω/1000ft (10mΩ/m)
  • Operating temperature: -25°C to +75°C; Storage: -40°C to +85°C
  • NMEA 2000 certified, RoHS compliant, UL certified (E137250, UL1277)
  • Compatible with Actisense QNB-1 Quick Network Block and Field Fit Connectors (FFC)
  • Maximum drop cable length: 6 metres; total cumulative drop length not to exceed 72 metres

The A2K-BULK-100MID is ideal for custom marine network installations where precise cable runs are required. It pairs perfectly with Actisense A2K field-fit connectors, T-pieces, and network blocks, giving installers the flexibility to cut exact lengths and terminate on-site.

Ordered a battery. Price was good, paid for upgraded shipping, which was a waste. Battery arrived ok, but packaging was not dense and secure, especially given that this was a very heavy item.

fast delivery, very happy.

Third time I have ordered from you guys, always a pleasant experience!

I ordered tires. Straight forward, easy, and affordable. How ordering tires should be.

It was a quick easy decision to purchase my new stainless steel prop through their site. Good job.

So easy to order and great prices

Items better price fast service

Easy to find the product and easy to order. Shipping took a little longer than anticipated but overall, it was a good experience
