Raymarine Raynet to RJ45 Female Adapter 100mm Product Description
Upgrading your marine electronics setup doesn't have to mean replacing every cable in your arsenal. The Raymarine RayNet to RJ45 Female Adapter steps in as the perfect bridge for boaters transitioning from older radar systems to the sleek, high-speed RayNet networking found on modern multifunction displays (MFDs). Clocking in at a compact 100mm length, this adapter ensures seamless connectivity without the bulk, keeping your helm clutter-free and your signal strong.
Imagine effortlessly linking your legacy Digital Radar cables—those trusty RJ45-terminated ones—to the latest HS-5 Network Switch or directly into the back of Axiom, eS, or gS Series MFDs. No more compatibility headaches or makeshift solutions that compromise waterproofing. This adapter's thoughtful design makes it a go-to for savvy skippers who value reliability on the water.
Standout Features for Marine Toughness
- RayNet Female to RJ45 Female Gland Connector: One end plugs straight into RayNet ports on newer Raymarine gear, while the other delivers a fully sealed RJ45 female socket.
- Watertight Gland Design: The integrated gland seals out moisture, saltwater spray, and corrosion—essential for harsh marine environments.
- Compact 100mm (4-inch) Length: Short enough for tight installations behind displays or switches, without signal loss.
- Marine-Grade Build: Engineered to withstand vibration, UV exposure, and extreme temperatures, just like Raymarine's renowned standards.
Why the Gland Matters
In the world of boating, water finds a way. Standard RJ45 connectors fail fast in wet conditions, leading to intermittent connections or total outages mid-voyage. This adapter's gland creates an IPX6-level seal around your RJ45 plug, maintaining gigabit Ethernet speeds even in pounding waves.
Perfect Fit for Your Setup
This adapter shines when adapting older Raymarine Digital Radars (like pathfinder series with RJ45 cables) to RayNet-equipped systems. It's your ticket to:
- Direct connection to the HS-5 Network Switch for expanded networking.
- Plug-and-play integration with Axiom (a-Series), eS-Series, or gS-Series multifunction displays.
- Reviving legacy HD or Super HD radars on new MFDs without full cable swaps.
Pro Tip: Check your radar cable ends—if it's a male RJ45, this female adapter pairs perfectly. For networked radars, it preserves Power over Ethernet (PoE) functionality, powering your dome or array without extra runs.
Quick and Easy Installation
No tools required beyond what's in your basic boating kit:
- Disconnect power to avoid shorts.
- Insert your RJ45 male cable into the adapter's gland end—twist the gland nut to secure and seal.
- Plug the RayNet female end into your MFD or HS-5 switch.
- Power up and verify connection via the MFD's network diagnostics.
Takes under 2 minutes, and you're back to crystal-clear radar returns. Always route cables away from high-power sources to minimize interference.
Real-World Benefits Beyond the Basics
Boat owners rave about how this adapter future-proofs their investment. Instead of discarding functional radars during an MFD upgrade, you extend their life while unlocking RayNet's faster data throughput—smoother chart overlays, quicker radar pings, and multi-device harmony.
It's not just about connection; it's peace of mind. Fewer failure points mean less troubleshooting at sea, more time fishing or cruising. Plus, its low-profile design integrates invisibly into custom dash builds.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Raymarine RayNet to RJ45 Female Adapter do?
It converts an RJ45 male connector from older Digital Radar cables into a RayNet-compatible connection, with a watertight gland for marine use. Ideal for linking legacy radars to new HS-5 switches or Axiom/eS/gS MFDs.
Is this adapter waterproof?
Yes, the RJ45 female end features a gland that creates a watertight seal when you insert an RJ45 plug, protecting against saltwater intrusion and splashes.
What length is the Raymarine A80247 adapter?
It's 100mm (about 4 inches) long, making it perfect for compact installations without excess cable slack.
Which Raymarine displays is this compatible with?
It works directly with RayNet ports on Axiom (a-Series), eS-Series, gS-Series multifunction displays, and the HS-5 Network Switch.
Can I use this for Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
Absolutely—it passes PoE, allowing networked radars to draw power through the same cable while maintaining full Ethernet speeds.
Does it work with non-Raymarine radars?
It's optimized for Raymarine Digital Radars with RJ45 cables, but may work with other Ethernet-based marine radars if they match the pinout—test in calm conditions first.
How do I install the gland properly?
Slide the RJ45 plug into the female socket, then tighten the gland nut by hand until snug. Avoid over-tightening to prevent cable damage.
This adapter has a RayNet Female connector at one end, and a RJ45 Female Gland connector at the other end. The Gland makes the RJ45 Female socket watertight.
A typical use for this cable would be to convert a RJ45 Digital Radar Cable to a RayNet Radar Cable so you can connect the cable directly into the new HS-5 Network Switch or directly into the back of an ace or gS Series multifunction display.
