Option #3 – Utilizing CAT5 Cable for NavNet Installations
Example of NavNet Installation Using CAT5 Cables and
Furuno 6-Pin Female-to- RJ45 Male Display Adapter Cables
This type of installation requires the use of Furuno Display Adapter Cables. It is possible
to create a NavNet that only uses display adapter cables if the hub is mounted very close
to the NavNet Displays and Network Sounder. It is also possible to “Mix” cabling Options
#2 and #3 to create a NavNet.
When longer cable runs are required, it will be necessary to utilize CAT5 Network Cable
for NavNet Installations. Utilizing CAT5 Cabling provides flexible installations and allows
a vessel to be pre-wired during construction or in preparation for a future NavNet
installation.
-Waterproof integrity of dealer supplied CAT5 Cabling and/or connections is NOT
guaranteed by Furuno and must be performed by the installer.
-Exact CAT5 Network Installation Methods and Practices are MANDATORY! Please
see our “CAT5/RJ45 Installation Notes” below for help on this subject
All CAT5 Cables must be wired as “Straight” cables, because the connection will always
be made directly to the Ethernet Hub. “Straight” CAT5 wiring information will be provided
in the “CAT5 Cable Installation Notes”. Detailed information may also be found by using
our references in the Internet Resources section on page 8.
