Know before you buy
This kit provides the foundational hardware for a SeaTalkNG network, including two terminators, one 20m backbone cable, two 5m backbone cables, four T-pieces, and a network power cable. It also comes with a reference manual to assist with the installation process.
Yes, SeaTalkNG is based on the NMEA 2000 standard. As long as your other marine electronics are NMEA 2000 certified, they can communicate across this backbone using the appropriate adapter cables.
This kit covers the backbone itself, but you will still need to purchase individual drop cables to connect your specific displays, sensors, and transducers to the T-pieces. You may also need additional T-pieces or backbone cables if your vessel layout requires a longer or more complex network.
Yes, the cables included in this kit feature an outdoor-rated PVC jacket, making them durable enough to withstand the harsh marine environment. They are designed to be routed through your vessel's interior or protected cable runs.
Each T-piece allows you to connect one device or power source to the backbone. If you have more than four devices that need to plug into the network, you will need to purchase additional T-pieces to expand your capacity.
