RE: [CA11] Can I connect two 5 way connectors (A06031) using a spur cable?
Welcome to the Raymarine Forum rafaelnfernandes,

Q1. I planned the connections and cables necessary but was surprised by the fact that the i70s display and the autopilot display only have ONE conection each. I always seem this type of displays with two conections to be dayse chained.
A1. Unlike SeaTalkng networking protocol which had permitted up to three devices to be daisy chained within a single spur (maximum total spur length = 6m), the NMEA 2000 networking protocol permits only one device per spur. As Raymarine is seeking NMEA 2000 Certification for its products, the products which you have identified along with all future Raymarine product designs having a SeaTalkng / NMEA 2000 communications interface have and will feature one spur socket instead of two spur sockets. This will thereby prevent such daisy chains.

Q2. Can I connect two 5 way connectors using only a spur cable?
A2. Negative. Please click here to view a FAQ addressing this subject.
