Description
Ancor NMEA 2000 Single Tee Connector
Ancor NMEA 2000 Single Tee Connector (Part Number: 270101) is an essential backbone component used to connect individual NMEA 2000 drop cables from marine electronics to the main network backbone. It is fully NMEA 2000 approved and 100% universal, meaning it seamlessly integrates with standard NMEA 2000 networks and products from other major marine electronics manufacturers.
Key Specifications & Features
- Color-Coded Design: It features signature yellow side couplers designed specifically to match Ancor backbone cables. The top port (with a black coupler) connects directly to the drop cable going to your marine device, making network tracing and troubleshooting straightforward.
- Universal Compatibility: Features a standard 5-pin configuration that connects universally to any compliant marine hardware, such as chartplotters, fishfinders, or VHF radios.
- Robust Marine Construction: Built with a secure threaded connection mechanism and premium, high-grade materials to withstand harsh marine environments and resist water intrusion.
Proper Installation Rules
When expanding your onboard marine network, keep these crucial linear backbone construction guidelines in mind:
- Drop Cable Placement: Drop cables and power cables must always connect to the top of the T-connector.
- Backbone Extension: The sides of the T-connector are strictly reserved for extending the backbone line or linking to a network terminator.
- Never Side-Connect Devices: Connecting a drop cable to the side of a T-connector will disrupt the signal chain across your network.
