Know before you buy
Yes, this 4-conductor cable is designed to support standard Davis sensors, including anemometers, rain collectors, and temperature probes for both Vantage Pro2 and original Vantage Pro systems.
The cable includes waterproof couplers specifically designed for outdoor environments, ensuring your connections remain secure and protected from the elements.
Davis Instruments designs these cables to maintain signal integrity over the 100-foot span. However, keep in mind that total cable length can impact certain sensors, so it is best to consult your specific sensor manual for maximum recommended run lengths.
While you can technically connect multiple cables, we generally advise against excessive daisy-chaining. Each additional connection point increases the risk of signal loss or interference, which may compromise the accuracy of your weather data.
No special tools are required. The cable comes with integrated waterproof couplers that allow you to join the extension to your existing sensor cable by hand.
