I have the 240 in a boat that is a nightmare to string new cable. Outside of the STNg cable, can I reuse existing cables for the handset, power, speaker etc saving me to rerun everything?

Also, it talks about an active speaker vs passive speaker.....don't understand the difference

Thanks
Pdog1989,

When replacing a Ray240 with a Ray260, the Ray240 handset/second station cables must be replaced with handset/second station cables which are specifically designed for use with the Ray260. An active speaker is differentiated from a passive speaker in that an active speaker features an amplifier and volume knob, while a passive speaker has no volume knob and relies upon the base station for volume amplification.
