Actisense NMEA Micro Drop Cable Assembly Meter

The Actisense NMEA 2000 Micro Drop Cable Assembly (also called a Lite micro cable or drop cable) connects devices to a NMEA 2000 backbone. It can also extend the backbone itself. Each assembly has a male and a female M12 Micro-C connector, so it plugs straight into standard NMEA 2000 network ports without adapters.

Key Features:

• Works as a drop cable from the backbone or as a backbone extension
• UL-certified Actisense Lite cable construction
• Five-conductor shielded cable: power pair, data pair and drain wire, with braid to help reduce RFI
• Male contacts are gold-plated brass. Female contacts are gold-plated phosphor bronze.
• Standard M12 "A" polarization and M12 mating thread, with nickel-plated brass screw cap
• Black PVC jacket and housing, with rubber O-ring seal
• IP67 waterproof rating when mated
• Rated for 3A and 60VDC
• Operating temperature range of -20°C to +70°C

Follow NMEA 2000 network guidelines when planning your layout. Each drop should not exceed 6 meters, and the combined length of all drops should not exceed 72 meters. Actisense backs the range with a 5-year guarantee. It is a dependable choice for marine electronics networking on boats.
