Wet End Preparation
The wet end of the cable is terminated with a Subconn BH16MSS connector. This connector is molded
on to the cable at the factory and cannot be serviced by the user. This connection can be mated in a wet
environment or underwater. Prior to connecting this to the Transducer Module mate, apply o-ring grease
to the black portion of the pins on the Transducer Module. The wet end connector is approximately 2.4
inches (6 cm) in diameter.
Warning
This connector can be mated and un-mated underwater as long as the Power Module is
switched off. If this connector is to be left un-mated in a wet environment or underwater, it is
necessary to protect it using the supplied Connection Cable End Cap.
