Simrad HALO® 200X/300X Radar Power & Ethernet Cable

Extend Your Radar Reach with Precision Engineering

Installing a Simrad HALO 200X or 300X radar on larger vessels often means dealing with mounting locations far from the helm. This specialized 30-meter power and Ethernet cable steps in as the perfect solution, delivering reliable power and high-speed data transmission without signal loss or interference. Crafted for marine environments, it combines rugged durability with seamless integration into your Simrad ecosystem, giving you the flexibility to position your radar dome exactly where it performs best—high on the mast or amidships—while keeping connections clean and organized.

Unlike standard cables that compromise on length or quality, this one maintains peak performance across the full 30 meters, ensuring your radar's pulse compression technology delivers clear, real-time visuals of approaching hazards, birds, and weather patterns. Boaters upgrading from shorter stock cables rave about the newfound installation freedom, eliminating the need for bulky signal boosters or risky splices.

Key Features That Stand Out on the Water

• Extended 30-Meter Length: Ideal for big boats or custom setups, bridging the gap between radar antenna and multifunction display without performance dips.
• Dual Power and Ethernet Design: Single-cable simplicity powers the unit while carrying Gigabit Ethernet for fast, low-latency data—perfect for dual-channel radar overlays.
• Marine-Grade Toughness: UV-resistant jacket, waterproof connectors, and shielded wiring shrug off saltwater spray, vibration, and extreme temperatures from scorching decks to freezing nights.
• Plug-and-Play Compatibility: Direct fit for HALO 200X and 300X models, with pre-terminated ends that snap into Simrad NSO, NSS, or NSX series displays effortlessly.
• Clutter-Free Routing: Slim profile glides through tight conduits and bulkheads, reducing wiring hassles during refits or new builds.

Why This Cable Transforms Your Radar Setup

Picture this: You're out on a foggy coastal run, relying on your HALO radar to cut through the haze. A subpar cable could introduce noise or dropouts, turning your advanced dome into a liability. This cable changes that narrative by prioritizing signal integrity—its twisted-pair Ethernet construction minimizes crosstalk, while robust power delivery keeps the radar spinning at full speed even under load.

For offshore anglers targeting bird piles or cruisers dodging squalls, the extra length unlocks optimal dome placement for unobstructed 360-degree scans. Installers appreciate the no-fuss terminations that save hours compared to piecing together extensions. Over time, it pays dividends in reliability, sparing you from mid-trip failures that no skipper wants.

Seamless Integration and Pro Installation Tips

Designed exclusively for Simrad's HALO 200X and 300X radars, this cable mates perfectly with the antenna's weatherproof port and your display's Ethernet backbone. It supports the radars' low-power draw, ensuring efficient operation without draining batteries during long watches.

Quick Install Guide:

1. Route the cable along existing wiring paths, securing with marine-grade zip ties to avoid chafe.
2. Connect the radar-end plug to the dome's power/Ethernet combo port—twist-lock secures it against waves.
3. Plug into your Simrad MFD's rear Ethernet slot; the network auto-detects and configures.
4. Test with a short range pulse to verify zero latency—adjust dome tilt for your hull's angle.
5. Seal deck glands with silicone for watertight entry points.

Pro tip: Pair it with Simrad's waterproof Ethernet couplers for even longer runs or branching to multiple displays, future-proofing your nav station.
