Transducer Extension Cable, 12 Pin, 10M Product Description
Whether you're rigging a new boat setup or troubleshooting cable runs on your existing vessel, finding the right way to bridge the gap between your Furuno transducer and display unit can make all the difference. This 12-pin extension cable steps in as a reliable solution, giving you that extra reach without the headaches of custom splicing or signal loss. Clocking in at a solid 10 meters, it's designed for marine environments where every foot counts—think transom-mounted transducers needing to snake up to the helm or across a wide deck.
Built with molded plugs on both ends, it ensures a secure, waterproof connection that stands up to saltwater splashes, vibrations, and the constant motion of boating life. No more fumbling with loose wires or worrying about corrosion eating into your sonar performance.
Key Features That Deliver Real-World Performance
- Precise 12-Pin Connectivity: Matches perfectly with Furuno's ecosystem, supporting everything from echo sounders to network multifunction displays for crystal-clear depth readings and fish arches.
- 10-Meter Reach: Ideal for mid-sized boats, allowing flexible transducer placement without compromising on cable management or aesthetics.
- Molded Male and Female Plugs: Factory-sealed for durability, these plugs lock in tight and resist strain from repeated plugging/unplugging.
- Marine-Grade Construction: UV-resistant jacket and tinned copper conductors fight off corrosion and maintain signal integrity over long runs.
Why Boaters Swear By This Extension for Their Furuno Setups
Extending your transducer cable isn't just about length—it's about keeping your sonar data reliable when it matters most. Short cables force awkward routing that can kink or chafe; too long, and you risk noise interference. At 10 meters, this hits the sweet spot for most installations, preserving the high-frequency accuracy Furuno is known for in spotting structure or marking bait balls.
Pro anglers and charter captains often pair it with DFF3D or B265LH transducers, routing cleanly behind bulkheads or along gunwales. It eliminates the need for expensive signal boosters and keeps your setup plug-and-play simple. Plus, in retrofit scenarios—like upgrading to a larger screen at the console—this cable saves hours of labor compared to rewiring from scratch.
Compatibility and Easy Installation Tips
This extension works seamlessly with Furuno's 12-pin transducer lineup, including popular models for CHIRP, conventional, and forward-looking sonar. Always double-check your transducer's connector—it's a standard 12-pin across most modern Furuno units like the FCV-1150 or TZtouch series.
Quick Install Guide
- Power down your electronics to avoid shorts.
- Disconnect the original cable from the transducer and head unit.
- Plug the male end into the transducer, female into the head unit (or chain with existing cable).
- Secure with cable ties, avoiding sharp edges or heat sources.
- Test at idle: Scan for consistent bottom tracking and no dropouts.
Tip: For troll motor transducers, zip-tie it along the shaft to minimize drag. If running multiple extensions, keep total length under 20 meters to dodge attenuation issues.
Long-Term Maintenance for Peak Performance
To get years of service, rinse with fresh water after every saltwater trip. Inspect plugs quarterly for cracks or pin corrosion—Furuno's design holds up well, but a dab of dielectric grease on contacts adds extra protection. Store coiled loosely during off-seasons to prevent memory kinks.
Frequently Asked Questions
What transducers is this 12-pin extension cable compatible with?
It's designed for Furuno's 12-pin transducers, including those used with FCV series echo sounders, DFF modules, and NavNet systems. Confirm your model's connector matches the standard 12-pin layout.
Does this extension cable affect sonar signal quality?
No, it maintains signal integrity thanks to high-quality conductors and shielding. At 10 meters, you'll see negligible loss—perfect for reliable depth and fish detection.
Is the cable waterproof and suitable for marine use?
Yes, with molded plugs and a rugged jacket, it's fully sealed against water ingress and built to withstand UV exposure, salt, and vibration in harsh boating conditions.
Can I daisy-chain multiple extension cables?
You can chain them, but limit total length to around 20 meters to avoid signal degradation. For longer runs, consider a dedicated repeater or network sounder.
How do I properly route the cable on my boat?
Route away from engines, bilge pumps, and radios to minimize interference. Use clips or ties for strain relief, and avoid tight bends (minimum radius 6 inches).
What's the best way to clean and store this cable?
Rinse with fresh water post-use, dry thoroughly, and apply dielectric grease to pins. Coil loosely for storage to prevent damage.
Will this work with older Furuno models?
Most post-2010 Furuno transducers use this 12-pin standard. Check your manual or connector photo against Furuno specs for confirmation.
