Axiom ?'s

[DaveE]

Thanks for the answers so far...

I am usually pretty savvy with technical issues, or at least good at researching, but I continue to be confused with the cabling on these axioms.

Back to my original question concerning the axiom spec for rear clearance... it states 6.22" using right angle connector. what connector is this referring to?? You said in your last response that any manufacturer's DeviceNet micro-c cables are compatible. These are 5 pin connections, and I can readily find them from a few suppliers. The NMEA 2000 connection on the back of the Axiom is an 8 pin connector... evidently in order to additionally supply power to the unit. I don't see this connector available anywhere, right angle or not, nor can I even figure out what it is called?? I understood from your last post that the point of getting away from seatalkNG was to make things more compatible with industry standards, but this seems to be a unique socket. So the question remains: what right angle connector is the 6.22" clearance based on? Maybe this is just a generic statement, but to state a measurement to the hundredths of an inch seems odd if there isn't a specific cable which the spec is based on.

Sorry for beating this to death, but it is kind of important to confirm that this whole setup will work in my application.

My sincere thanks again,

Dave
