Raymarine Digital Radar Extension Cable f/Domes & Arrays - 10m

Extending the reach of your marine radar system opens up new possibilities for mounting flexibility on your vessel. Whether you're dealing with a compact radome or a powerful open array, this 10-meter digital extension cable ensures seamless connectivity without compromising performance. Designed specifically for Raymarine's digital lineup, it bridges the gap between your radar scanner and pathfinder display, letting you position your gear exactly where it performs best—farther from sensitive electronics or up high for optimal scanning.

Crafted with marine-grade durability in mind, this cable withstands the harsh saltwater environment, vibration from rough seas, and constant exposure to the elements. No more worrying about signal degradation over distance; its digital construction preserves every bit of radar data integrity, delivering crisp, reliable returns even at full extension.

Key Features That Set It Apart

• Generous 10-Meter Length: Provides ample room for creative installations on sailboats, power yachts, or fishing vessels without needing multiple adapters.
• Digital Signal Optimization: Engineered for Raymarine's digital radomes and HD/SHD open arrays, ensuring low-loss transmission and high-resolution imaging.
• Rugged Construction: Double-shielded to block interference from nearby radios, motors, or other onboard systems.
• Plug-and-Play Connectors: Raymarine's proprietary waterproof fittings snap securely into place, making swaps or extensions hassle-free.
• Compact and Flexible: Easy to route through tight spaces like mast wiring runs or console bulkheads.

Why Boaters Trust This Extension for Their Radar

Picture this: You're out on a foggy dawn patrol, and your radar needs to scan unobstructed from the highest vantage point. Short cables limit your options, forcing suboptimal placements that clutter your helm or expose wiring to damage. This extension solves that by giving you the freedom to optimize—mount the dome aft on a fishing trawler or elevate an array on a sportfisher's tuna tower.

Unlike generic cables that introduce noise or dropouts, Raymarine's digital design maintains pulse compression and FMCW technology fidelity. It's not just about length; it's about keeping your collision avoidance, bird detection, and weather tracking razor-sharp. Anglers love it for marking bait balls precisely, while cruisers rely on it for safe navigation in crowded anchorages.

Built to last seasons of heavy use, it features UV-resistant jackets and tinned copper conductors that resist corrosion—essential for any saltwater setup.

Seamless Compatibility with Raymarine Systems

This cable pairs perfectly with a range of digital radomes like the compact 18-inch or 24-inch models, and scales up to HD and SuperHD open arrays in 24-, 36-, or 48-inch sizes. It integrates flawlessly with Pathfinder Plus, Axiom, and Element multifunction displays, supporting features like Dual Range and VelocityTrack Doppler processing.

Before installing, double-check your scanner's model—it's tailored for digital-only units, so it won't work with legacy analog systems. This ensures plug-and-play simplicity right out of the box.

Installation Tips from Seasoned Installers

1. Plan your route: Measure twice, avoiding sharp bends or heat sources to preserve signal quality.
2. Secure properly: Use cable ties and conduit for chafe protection in high-traffic areas.
3. Test thoroughly: Power up post-install and run a full 360-degree sweep to verify no blind spots.
4. Weatherproof joints: Apply dielectric grease to connectors for extra saltwater resistance.
5. Label for future: Mark both ends to speed up troubleshooting down the line.

Most skippers handle this in under an hour with basic tools—no soldering or custom crimping required.

Maintaining Peak Performance Over Time

Regular inspections keep it humming: Check for frays or water ingress annually, especially after stormy passages. Rinse with fresh water after every outing to flush salt buildup. Store spares coiled loosely to avoid kinks. With proper care, it'll outlast lesser cables, saving you replacement headaches.
