SeaTalk NG BackBone Kit

What is included

The SeaTalkNG Network Backbone Kit contains everything you need to build a mid-size SeaTalkNG navigation network on your vessel. The kit includes the following components:

• A06031 SeaTalk^{All right} Terminators (2 pcs.)
• A06037 STNG Backbone cable, 20m
• A06036 STNG Backbone cable, 5m (2 pcs.)
• A06028 STNG T Connector (4 pcs.)
• A06049 STNG Power Cable (1 pc.)

All Raymarine SeaTalk NG cables and connectors are colour-coded:

The blue socket of the connector is suitable for a blue/black cable, which is the BackBone, also known as the trunk cable. The white socket of the connector is suitable for a white/black cable, which is the SPUR, also known as the drop cable (or drop trunk cable). The wrong cable will not fit into the wrong socket. When preparing for installation, make a plan so that a BackBone cable of suitable length runs through everywhere where STNG (NMEA2000) devices are to be installed. Leave a break in important locations where a T-connector or a 5-way connector can be installed, and no instrument connected via a drop cable to a connector on the BackBone should be more than 5m away.
