ANCOR 270302 NMEA 2000 Drop Cable 6.5'(2m)

The NMEA 2000 (NMEA 2K) drop cable #270302 is a cable used in marine electronics systems. NMEA 2000 is a standardized communication protocol used for interconnecting marine electronic devices on boats and ships.

Specifications of the NMEA 2K Drop Cable #270302:

1. Length: 6.5 feet (approximately 2 meters). This means the cable is 6.5 feet long, or around 2 meters.

2. Wire Gauge: 22 AWG (American Wire Gauge). This indicates the thickness or diameter of the individual wires inside the cable. The smaller the gauge number, the thicker the wire.

3. Power Capability: The cable is capable of transmitting power (pwr) in addition to data. NMEA 2000 cables are designed to carry both data and power, simplifying the installation and reducing the need for separate power cables.

The NMEA 2000 protocol allows marine electronic devices such as GPS units, fish finders, chartplotters, radars, and other instruments to communicate and share data with each other. The drop cable is used to connect various devices in the NMEA 2000 network, forming a reliable and efficient communication system on the boat or vessel.
