Transducer cable routing guidance

Guidance for routing your transducer's cable is provided below.
Important

The transducer cable’s connector is supplied with a separate locking collar assembly. Do NOT fit the locking collar assembly until after the cable has been routed to the display.

Cable routing

  • The route the transducer cable will take to your MFD or sonar module should be planned before installing the transducer.

  • The transducer is supplied with an 8 m (26.2 ft) fitted cable. If the cable length is too short then extension cables are available to lengthen the cable run.

    Note

    It is recommended that a maximum of two cable extensions are used, with the total cable length not exceeding 18 m (59 ft).

  • The cable should be routed as far away as practical from VHF radio antennas and cabling.

  • There should be sufficient slack is left at the transducer end to allow for the transducer to be tilted up and down.

  • Any excess cable should be coiled up at a convenient location.

  • The cable should be secured at regular intervals.
