A2K-TDC-4M NMEA2000 Micro Cable Assembly - 4M
Available in various lengths, the cable assemblies can be used as either a drop cable from a NMEA 2000 backbone or to extend the length of the backbone cable.
Actisense Lite cable assemblies allow quick installation and come with quality reassurance as only the Actisense UL-certified cable is used.
NMEA 2000 cable includes five wires within a single waterproof cable: power and ground wires, two signal (data) wires, and a drain wire. The drain wire connects to the cable shield, which protects the signal, power, and ground wires from external Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) and helps reduce RFI emission from the cable.
NMEA 2000 Lite cable can be used to create a backbone up to 100 meters in length. If the backbone length required exceeds 100 meters, the center of the bus can be extended with an NMEA 2000 mini cable to keep the outer Lite sections to the 100-meter maximum.
The maximum length of a drop cable (distance from the backbone) is 6 meters. It is important to limit each drop length to the minimum required, as the total of all drop lengths must not exceed 72 meters.
The Actisense range of NMEA 2000 connectors and cables has been designed using our specialist interconnect and NMEA knowledge.
Technical Specifications:
The Actisense A2K-TDC-4M NMEA 2000 Micro Cable Assembly provides a reliable and efficient solution for creating or extending NMEA 2000 networks on boats and marine vessels. Designed for quick installation, this 4-meter cable features high-quality UL-certified components, ensuring dependable performance in demanding marine environments. Its waterproof design with IP67 protection allows it to withstand exposure to water, humidity, and adverse weather conditions, making it ideal for marine applications. The cable contains five wires within a durable PVC jacket, including power, ground, two data signals, and a drain wire that shields against external Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) while reducing emission from the cable itself. This design ensures clear signal transmission and stable power delivery across your NMEA 2000 network.
The Actisense Lite cable assembly enables you to establish backbone networks up to 100 meters in length, with the flexibility to extend using mini cables if longer distances are needed. The maximum drop cable length from the backbone is 6 meters, and all drop lengths combined should not exceed 72 meters. The connectors feature brass, gold-plated male contacts and phosphor bronze, gold-plated female contacts, with robust M12 threading and rubber O-ring seals to prevent water ingress. The housing is made from black PVC, providing durability and resistance to harsh marine conditions. The cable's internal wiring includes 22 AWG power pairs, 24 AWG data pairs, and 22 AWG drain wires, all constructed from tinned copper for corrosion resistance.
Additional features include a protective braid made from tinned copper, a black nickel-plated brass screw cap, and a standard M12 polarization for compatibility with a wide range of marine equipment. The cable's outer diameter is approximately 0.27 inches, with a weight of around 10.4 ounces, making it manageable for installation in tight spaces. Operating temperature ranges from -20°C to +70°C, while storage can be maintained between -40°C and +85°C. This product is designed for marine professionals and enthusiasts seeking high-quality, reliable cabling for NMEA 2000 networks, ensuring optimal data integrity and power delivery in marine environments.
