Cable layout
7.4 Transducer cables
The transducer cables between the transducer arrays and the
Transceiver Unit are all supplied by Kongsberg Maritime with
the EM 710 system. The physical number of cables depends on
the chosen system beamwidth as shown the following tables.

The following cable information is available both in the EM
710 installation and maintenance manuals. The cable markings
are normally recorded in the installation manual first, and it is
recommended to copy these records to the maintenance manual
later.
Note that performance data about each element and it’s
serial number are recorded in the Factory Acceptance Test
documentation provided with each system.
7.4.1 Transmit array cable markings
The TX transducer module(s) and its cable is identified as
follows:
TX1<m>/<n> or TX2<m>/<n>
where <m> is the cable number
(a number between 1 and 10) and <nnn> is the module’s serial
number (a numerical value).
The transducer cables are moulded to the TX array, but connect
in the other end to the Transceiver Unit (TRU) with 76–pin
D-sub connectors.
