We strongly recommend that you install minimum two Ethernet cables between the sonar room and the bridge. One cable is for operational use, while the other is spare.
The maximum length of the Ethernet cable is 100 meters.
Each end of the Ethernet cable must be terminated with a Phoenix Contact "Variosub RJ45 Quickcon" connector. Connectors and mounting instructions for are provided in the sonar delivery.
Minimum cable requirements
It is very important that a high-quality Ethernet cable is used. You must use Cat 5e STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) quality or better. Using cables with lower bandwidth capacity will reduce performance.
