E 80 - 0183 cable

[rmitch]

I am installing a E-80 chartplotter, it is one I used as a spare on my big boat. Sold the big boat and am installing this on a rebuild project. I do not have the gps (0183) raymarine cable, I see the pin designations on line and think I could build a connector for the 0183 connection, but I wonder if there is another way to bring that gps data into the unit. I have a Raymarine SeaTalk Hs high speed network switch with several spare cables, can I bring that gps data into the switch using these cables and then feed the E-80 chartplotter through the switch cables?
