Enhance your marine electronics setup with the Raymarine 3-meter stripped end spur cable designed specifically for SeaTalk^ng networks. This versatile cable simplifies connections in custom installations, allowing you to bridge Raymarine instruments, chartplotters, radars, and sensors directly to your network backbone. With one end featuring pre-stripped bare wires, it's ideal for integrating into tight spaces or linking with non-standard connectors, saving time and reducing clutter on your vessel.

Why Choose This Spur Cable for Your SeaTalk^ng Network?

SeaTalk^ng is Raymarine's robust, NMEA 2000-compatible backbone that powers seamless data sharing across your boating electronics. This 3m spur cable acts as a reliable extension arm, dropping off the main backbone to connect individual devices without compromising signal integrity. Boat owners and installers appreciate its flexibility—perfect for retrofits, upgrades, or building out a full network from scratch. Unlike standard terminated cables, the stripped end gives you full control over terminations, making it a go-to for professional marine techs tackling unique wiring challenges.

Key Features and Specifications

• Length: 3 meters (9.8 feet) for ample reach in cockpits, consoles, or engine rooms.
• One-End Stripped Design: Bare wires on one side for custom crimping, soldering, or splicing to power sources, switches, or legacy equipment.
• SeaTalk^ng Spur Connector: Standard 5-pin connector on the other end for plug-and-play into the backbone or T-pieces.
• Marine-Grade Construction: UV-resistant, waterproof jacket withstands saltwater exposure, vibrations, and extreme temperatures from -25°C to 70°C.
• Shielded Twisted Pair: Ensures low noise and high-speed data transmission up to 250 kbps.

Ideal Applications Onboard

Whether you're outfitting a sailboat, center console, or yacht, this cable shines in scenarios like:

• Connecting autopilot drives or transducers in hard-to-reach areas.
• Extending networks to flybridges or stern stations.
• Powering up multifunction displays (MFDs) with direct backbone drops.
• Custom integrations with third-party NMEA 2000 devices.
• DIY repairs or expansions without buying multiple short cables.

Its length strikes the perfect balance—long enough for most runs but short enough to minimize voltage drop and electromagnetic interference.

Installation Tips for Seamless Performance

Getting this cable up and running is straightforward, even for hands-on boaters. Start by planning your backbone layout with terminators at both ends. Plug the spur end into a T-connector or directly into a device port. For the stripped wires, match colors precisely: white (net S), white/black (switch), yellow (12V+), black (0V/GND), and blue (bias). Use heat-shrink butt connectors or marine-grade solder for watertight seals. Test continuity and power up gradually to verify network health via Raymarine diagnostics. Pro tip: Route cables away from high-current lines to avoid induced noise—your instruments will thank you with crisp, reliable data.

Built to Last in Harsh Marine Environments

Crafted with tinned copper conductors and a tough thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) sheath, this cable resists corrosion, abrasion, and flex fatigue from constant boat motion. It's certified for immersion up to 1 meter, making it dependable for offshore adventures. Over years of exposure to sun, spray, and salt, it maintains peak performance, reducing downtime and maintenance hassles compared to lesser cables that crack or fray prematurely.

Compatibility Across Raymarine Systems

Fully compliant with SeaTalk^ng and NMEA 2000 standards, it pairs effortlessly with Evolution autopilots, Axiom chartplotters, Quantum radars, and RV digital sounders. Drop it into existing networks or expand with STng to SeaTalk1 converters for older Raymarine gear. Its drop cable design supports daisy-chaining multiple spurs off a single backbone, scaling your setup as needed.
