[CA] e80 hs seatalk crossover
Trying to get some last details done and realized that I need a longer cable for my hs seatalk. I have two 1.5 meter cables. I Need to join together the two 1.5 meter hs seatalk cables between my e80 and dsm300. These 2 cables would be joined in a secured closet out of the weather. Will a standard ethernet crossover coupler work for this since i do not need any weatherproofing--unlike the raymarine which is inside a cover. I have a coupler left over from setting up my pc network that I could use rather than wait to get one.. Thanks in advance

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Dana,

Q1. Will a standard ethernet crossover coupler work for this since i do not need any weatherproofing.
A1. Technically, your suggestion will work ... a straight-through Ethernet coupler may not be used. Naturally, we would suggest using the SeaTalkhs Crossover Coupler. Care should be taken ensure strain relief and ensure that the crossover be located above the cables (i.e create a drip loop).
