Frequently Asked Questions

Will this adapter work with non-Furuno equipment?

This adapter is specifically designed for Furuno transducers and fishfinders. While the physical connectors may fit other brands, signal compatibility and pin assignments may differ, potentially causing malfunction or damage.

Does this adapter support all transducer functions?

The AIR-033-073 maintains full signal transmission for depth, temperature, and power connections. However, some advanced features available on newer 10-pin systems may not be supported by older 8-pin fishfinder units.

Can I use multiple adapters in series?

For optimal performance and signal integrity, avoid using multiple adapters in series. Each connection point can introduce signal loss or interference. Use the minimum number of connections necessary for your system.

How do I know if my fishfinder has 8-pin connections?

Check your fishfinder's transducer connection port. 8-pin connectors are typically found on older Furuno units, while 10-pin connectors are standard on newer models. Consult your unit's manual or contact Furuno for specific compatibility information.
