Actisense NMEA2000 Micro Bulk Cable Reel - 100M - A2K-BULK-100M

Actisense NMEA2000 Micro Bulk Cable Reel - 100M

The Actisense NMEA2000 Micro Bulk Cable Reel provides a versatile solution for creating or extending NMEA 2000 backbones in marine electronics installations. This 100-meter reel is ideal for customizing cable runs with flexibility and reliability, suitable for use with Actisense QNB-1 Quick Network Block or Field Fit Connectors (FFC). The cable features five wires in a waterproof design, including power, ground, two signal wires, and a drain wire, all protected by a shield to minimize external RFI and emission interference. Its construction ensures stable signal integrity and durability in challenging environments, making it a dependable choice for marine data networking.

Designed for efficient backbone creation, this cable can support lengths up to 100 meters. When longer runs are necessary, the backbone can be extended with NMEA 2000 mini cables while maintaining the maximum 100-meter section length. Drop cables connecting devices to the backbone are limited to 6 meters to prevent signal degradation, with a range of drop cable options available from 0.25 meters to 6 meters. This structured approach ensures optimal network performance and compliance with NMEA 2000 standards.

The cable's technical specifications highlight its robust build, rated for 60VDC and 3A, with a braid of 37 AWG tinned copper and a PVC jacket. Power pairs utilize 22 AWG conductor for reliable power transmission, while data pairs use 24 AWG with foam PE insulation for high-quality signal integrity. The overall design emphasizes resistance to interference, with a shielded construction and low DC resistance, suitable for demanding marine environments. Operating temperatures range from -25°C to +75°C, ensuring durability across diverse conditions. This product is shipped on a 100-meter reel, weighing approximately 17 pounds, with detailed specifications available in the provided manual.

Whether building a new network or expanding an existing one, the Actisense NMEA2000 Micro Bulk Cable Reel delivers dependable performance, ease of installation, and flexibility for marine communication systems.
