Know before you buy
This 5-meter cable is designed to extend your marine network by connecting devices to the Navico NEP-3 expansion port. It acts as a bridge between the specialized M12 locking connection on the network hub and a standard RJ45 port on your compatible marine electronics.
While the RJ45 end is a standard connector, the M12 locking end is specifically engineered for Navico's proprietary network systems. It is intended for use with the NEP-3 and compatible Navico hardware, so it may not be compatible with other brands' proprietary networking ports.
Yes, this cable is built specifically for marine environments. The M12 locking connector provides a secure, vibration-resistant connection that helps prevent moisture and debris from compromising your data transmission.
No, this is a data-only Ethernet cable. It is designed to facilitate high-speed data communication between your navigation and communication devices, not to supply power to them.
This cable measures 5 meters, which is approximately 16.4 feet. This length is ideal for routing connections across a console or between nearby helm stations.
