Furuno 10M NMEA200 Backbone Cable f/PB200 & 200WX

Enhance Your Marine Network with Reliable Connectivity

Building a robust NMEA2000 network on your vessel starts with the right backbone components. This 10-meter backbone cable delivers seamless integration for Furuno's precision instruments like the PB200 barometer and 200WX weather station. Crafted for harsh marine conditions, it ensures stable data transmission across your onboard electronics, from GPS to autopilot systems.

Unlike shorter cables that limit layout flexibility, this extended length allows for optimal routing around bulkheads and equipment bays, minimizing signal loss and maximizing network efficiency. Boat owners and installers appreciate its plug-and-play design, which cuts down setup time while upholding Furuno's reputation for durability in saltwater environments.

Key Features for Superior Performance

• Extended Reach: 10 meters of backbone provides ample length for complex installations without the need for multiple junctions.
• NMEA2000 Compliant: Fully adheres to the standard, supporting drop cables and T-connectors for easy expansion.
• Marine-Grade Build: Double-shielded construction resists electromagnetic interference from engines and radios.
• Weatherproof Connectors: Self-sealing Micro-C fittings lock out moisture, ensuring long-term reliability even in pounding seas.
• Low Power Draw: Efficient cabling supports power distribution across the backbone, reducing voltage drop over distance.

These features make it a go-to choice for upgrading legacy NMEA0183 setups to modern, high-speed networking.

Perfect Compatibility for Furuno Systems

Designed specifically for the PB200 precision barometer and 200WX all-in-one weather sensor, this cable slots effortlessly into Furuno's ecosystem. It pairs with multifunction displays, chartplotters, and radars, creating a unified dashboard for real-time barometric pressure, wind data, and more.

Expand your network confidently—compatible with other NMEA2000 devices from leading brands, it future-proofs your setup for upcoming upgrades. Installers note its straightforward integration reduces troubleshooting, letting you focus on what matters: smooth sailing.

Installation Tips for Flawless Setup

Start by planning your backbone route away from high-heat sources and heavy machinery. Secure the cable with non-abrasive clips every 30-50 cm to prevent chafing. Use a backbone terminator at each end to maintain signal integrity—essential for networks longer than 10 meters.

For the PB200 or 200WX, connect via drop cables to tee into the backbone at convenient access points. Test the network post-install using diagnostic tools to verify data flow. Pro tip: Label all connections for quick maintenance during offshore voyages.

Why It Outshines Standard Alternatives

In a sea of generic cables, Furuno's engineering shines through with superior shielding and flexibility. It handles the twists and turns of real-world boat layouts better than stiff competitors, while its UV-resistant jacket withstands years of sun exposure on deck runs.

Owners report fewer network dropouts compared to off-brand options, translating to safer navigation with dependable instrument data. Invest in quality that matches Furuno's precision sensors for a network you can trust mile after mile.

Long-Term Maintenance and Care

Inspect connectors annually for corrosion—wipe with fresh water and dielectric grease if needed. Avoid sharp bends (minimum radius 50mm) to preserve internal conductors. In multi-vessel fleets, standardize on this cable for consistent performance across your operation.
