Actisense A2K-TDC-1M NMEA 2000 Micro Cable Assembly – 1 Meter

The Actisense A2K-TDC-1M NMEA 2000 Micro Cable Assembly provides a reliable solution for establishing or extending your marine data network. This 1-meter waterproof cable is designed to connect NMEA 2000 backbone segments or serve as a drop cable from the main network, supporting seamless integration of marine electronics. Made with UL-certified Actisense cables, it ensures quality and durability for demanding marine environments. The cable features five internal wires—power, ground, two data lines, and a drain wire—encased in a robust, waterproof jacket to prevent moisture ingress and shield against external radio frequency interference (RFI). The drain wire connects to the cable shield, reducing RFI emissions and enhancing signal integrity. This assembly supports backbone lengths up to 100 meters when combined with mini cables, making it suitable for extensive marine data networks. The maximum drop cable length is 6 meters, and the total drop lengths should not exceed 72 meters to maintain optimal performance. Designed with marine-grade connectors, the assembly uses brass, gold-plated male contacts, and phosphor bronze, gold-plated female contacts, ensuring excellent corrosion resistance. The connectors feature IP67 protection when mated, providing a high level of environmental sealing. The cable housing is constructed from black PVC with a durable outer diameter, and the internal conductors utilize tinned copper wire, which is ideal for marine conditions. With operating temperatures ranging from -20°C to +70°C and storage temperatures from -40°C to +85°C, the Actisense A2K-TDC-1M is built for versatility and resilience. This cable assembly is an essential component for marine data systems, offering quick installation, reliable performance, and long-lasting durability in harsh environments.
