It's a game-changer for tournament pros and weekend warriors alike, ensuring everyone on board stays informed.

Backed by a solid warranty, it offers peace of mind on every trip. Pro tip: Always check for the latest software updates to maximize compatibility and unlock new features.

Networking Made Easy: Setup Scenarios

Setting up your network is straightforward. For linking two Helix or 700 HD units, grab two adapters and an Ethernet cable of suitable length—think 10 to 30 feet depending on your console distance.

Mixing series? One adapter often suffices when connecting a newer HD model to a pre-2014 unit, plus your Ethernet cable. This setup shines for dual-screen boats, letting the bow unit share forward-facing sonar with the console display.

Common angler hack: Route cables along existing wiring paths under gunwales for a clean, professional install. Test connections on the water to confirm data flow before heading out.

Boost Your Angling Edge with Shared Intelligence

Imagine spotting a school of walleye on side imaging, then instantly sharing that exact location with your partner's unit—no yelling coordinates across the boat. Or let your trolling motor auto-follow contours based on live sonar data from the finder. This adapter turns individual devices into a unified system, saving time and increasing catch rates.

For multi-species pursuits, network charts update simultaneously, keeping your crew on the same page. It's especially valuable in big water where precise positioning matters most.
