I have a 3 instrument pod on my sailboat steering pedestal.
I plan on installing 1 ea of i70S, i60 Wind, P70S.
I see two options for connecting these instruments to the SeatalkNG backbone.
1. Run individual spur cables thru the pedestal guard to a below deck backbone 5 way connector.
2. Put a backbone 5 way connector in the instrument pod and use the shortest spur cables to connect to the backbone. That means 3 * 15" spur cables bundled into a 6" by 18" instrument pod and one backbone cable thru the pedestal guard to below deck.
What would be the recommended option?
Thanks
