Raymarine 1M Spur Cable f/SeaTalk^ng

Enhance your boat's connectivity with the Raymarine 1m SeaTalk^ng spur cable, a vital component for seamless integration of marine electronics. Designed for boaters who demand reliability on the water, this cable bridges individual devices to the main backbone network, ensuring smooth data flow across your setup. Whether you're upgrading your helm station or expanding instrumentation, this spur cable delivers the robust performance Raymarine is known for in harsh saltwater conditions.

Understanding SeaTalk^ng Spur Cables and Their Role Onboard

SeaTalk^ng represents Raymarine's advanced networking protocol, fully compatible with NMEA 2000 standards, allowing multiple devices like multifunction displays, autopilots, and sensors to communicate effortlessly. A spur cable like this 1m model acts as a short extension arm, connecting a single device directly to the backbone without cluttering the main line. At just over 3 feet, it's ideal for tight spaces around consoles or mounting areas, preventing signal loss and maintaining network integrity even in rocking seas.

Unlike backbone cables that form the primary highway, spurs keep your setup clean and expandable. Boaters often use them to link sonar modules or instrument pods, reducing wiring hassles and enabling quick diagnostics through Raymarine's intuitive software.

Standout Features Tailored for Marine Demands

• Precision Length for Flexibility: The 1m (3.3 ft) design strikes a perfect balance—long enough to reach without excess slack, short enough to minimize interference.
• Durable Construction: Black and white cabling withstands UV exposure, saltwater corrosion, and vibration, proven in professional fishing fleets and weekend cruisers alike.
• Plug-and-Play Simplicity: Pre-terminated connectors snap securely into SeaTalk^ng ports, speeding up installation and reducing errors.
• High-Speed Data Transfer: Supports real-time sharing of depth, speed, wind, and GPS data across your network.
• Backed by Expertise: Engineered with over eight decades of marine innovation, ensuring it thrives where lesser cables fail.

Perfect Compatibility for Your Raymarine Ecosystem

This spur cable shines with CP100 sonar sounder modules and multifunction displays, but extends to broader systems like E and C Series widescreen chartplotters, G Series glass helm setups, and ST70 instruments. It's a go-to for retrofitting older boats or building new networks, interfacing seamlessly with radars, AIS, thermal cameras, and VHF units. Check your device's SeaTalk^ng port to confirm—most Raymarine products from the last decade support it natively.

Pro Tip: Pair it with T-pieces or terminators for a complete backbone, creating a daisy-chain that scales as your boating adventures grow.

Effortless Installation and Maintenance Tips

Setting up is straightforward: Locate your device's SeaTalk^ng spur port, connect one end of the cable, and plug the other into a backbone socket or junction box. Secure with cable ties to avoid snags from lines or gear. For optimal performance, keep total backbone length under 30 meters and spurs shorter than 3 meters to avoid dropouts.

Troubleshooting common issues? Inspect for bent pins or water ingress—Raymarine's rugged seals usually prevent this. If network lights don't blink, power cycle the backbone. Regular checks during haul-outs extend lifespan, keeping your systems humming through seasons of use.

Why Boaters Trust Raymarine Spur Cables

In the competitive world of marine electronics, Raymarine stands out for blending cutting-edge tech with battle-tested durability. This spur cable isn't just wire—it's the reliable link that turns disparate devices into a unified command center. Anglers get precise sonar pings, sailors monitor wind shifts instantly, and powerboaters navigate with confidence. Invest in quality that outlasts the elements, minimizing downtime and maximizing time on the water.
