Why Choose the CCX-S for Your Marine Setup?
In the world of boating electronics, signal loss from poor connections can mean the difference between spotting hazards and running aground. The Newmar CCX-S steps up with superior sealing technology that maintains 100% waterproof integrity under pressure, tested to handle real-world pounding waves and spray. Boaters rave about its no-fuss install—simply thread your cable, tighten the gland, and you're set. It's a step above generic passthroughs, offering marine-grade durability that resists galvanic corrosion, a common killer of coax fittings in saltwater.
Ideal applications include center-console boats, sailboats, and fishing charters where space is at a premium. Pair it with your radar dome or fishfinder cable for uninterrupted performance, and enjoy peace of mind knowing your setup is built to last seasons without leaks or failures.
Installation Tips for Optimal Results
- Measure your cable and connector diameters to confirm CCX-S compatibility (.35"-.55" cable, up to .83" connector).
- Drill a precise hole matching the unit's mounting footprint for a flush fit.
- Slide the cable through, position the connector, and hand-tighten the compression nut for initial seal—use a wrench for final torque if needed.
- Apply marine sealant around the base for extra protection in high-exposure areas.
- Test the connection with a multimeter to verify continuity before full deployment.
Pro tip: For multi-cable runs, consider combining with Newmar's broader CCX lineup for a unified, professional-grade installation.
