Furuno 30M Signal/Power Cable f/DRS4DL/DRS6AX

Enhance your marine radar system's reach and reliability with the Furuno 30M Signal/Power Cable, engineered exclusively for the DRS4DL and DRS6AX radar domes. This robust cable combines signal transmission and power delivery in one streamlined assembly, allowing you to position your radar unit up to 30 meters from the display without compromising performance. Ideal for larger vessels or installations requiring flexible mounting options, it ensures seamless integration into Furuno NavNet TZtouch, TZtouch2, TZtouch3, and TZT2/TZT3 systems.

Key Features and Marine-Tough Construction

• Extended 30-Meter Length: Provides ample distance for optimal radar placement on masts, arches, or elevated positions, improving scanning coverage and reducing blind spots.
• Integrated Signal and Power: Single-cable design simplifies wiring, reduces clutter, and minimizes connection points that could introduce interference or failure risks.
• Marine-Grade Durability: Double-shielded construction guards against electromagnetic interference (EMI) from engines, radios, and other onboard electronics, while UV-resistant and waterproof connectors withstand harsh saltwater environments.
• Plug-and-Play Connectors: Precision-machined ends match Furuno's DRS4DL and DRS6AX ports perfectly, ensuring a secure, low-loss connection right out of the box.

Why This Cable Elevates Your Radar Setup

In the demanding world of boating and fishing, radar reliability can mean the difference between spotting hazards early or navigating blindly. The Furuno 30M cable supports high-resolution imaging from the DRS4DL's 4kW solid-state Doppler radar or the DRS6AX's advanced 6kW X-band performance, delivering clear target separation even in rain or clutter. Boaters report fewer false echoes and sharper fast target acquisition when using this extension, thanks to its low-attenuation design that preserves signal integrity over distance.

Unlike generic extension cables, this Furuno-specific solution maintains full Fast Target Tracking (FTT) and Bird Mode functionality, crucial for commercial fishers tracking schools or recreational sailors avoiding collisions. It's a smart upgrade for refits, where original short cables limit dome placement.

Installation Insights for Seamless Setup

Route the cable through existing conduits or along secure deck paths, using cable ties to avoid chafe points. Connect the radar-end plug to the DRS4DL or DRS6AX dome first, then route to your NavNet processor or display unit. Power specs align with Furuno's 12-24V DC systems—no adapters needed. Pro tip: Test continuity with a multimeter before finalizing to catch any shipping kinks.

Maintenance for Long-Term Performance

Keep connectors clean and dry with fresh water rinses after exposure. Inspect shielding annually for wear, especially near high-vibration areas. This cable's rugged build typically outlasts standard marine wiring, supporting years of uninterrupted radar operation.
