Actisense extends cable range

Actisense, leisure marine electronics developers, has diversified its range of NMEA Micro Cables, adding further to their NMEA 2000 product range.

More cable lengths have been added to the range and the company has also created an NMEA 2000 starter kit.

According to the company, it has considered existing industry install and usability issues found with other manufacturers’ products and, using that information, has designed its range to combat these issues and make the user experience uncomplicated and trouble-free.

The A2K-TDC (NMEA 2000 Micro Cable Assembly) is now available in 0.25m, 2m and 6m variations. The principal Actisense Micro Bulk Cable is UL certified and is available in 100m reels.

The NMEA 2000 Micro Starter Kit, includes a Micro power T, Micro Terminators (1x Female and 1x Male), Micro Cable Assembly (2 metre) and two Micro T Pieces.

The Actisense T piece is said to provide simple installation where a drop connection is required and the male and female Terminators are used at either end of an NMEA 2000 backbone to ensure proper operation.

Managing Director of Active Research, Phil Whitehurst, commented: “This enhanced cable range will do what Actisense has always done – make the lives of our customers easier and safer. As these are now available in various metre lengths, the assemblies can be used as either a drop cable from the NMEA 2000 backbone or to extend the length of the backbone cable.”
