For Non-NMEA Installations:
Plan the mounting location for the RMU so that it can be connected
to the MCU directly using network drop cable(s). Tides offers several
cable length options. (10M, 4M, 2M, 1M plus bulk wire)
Connect a N2K tee connector to each side of a Power Tee. Add both
Male and Female terminators to the remaining two side legs.
Connect the drop cable from the RMU to one of the N2K connectors.
Connect the Drop Cable from the MCU to the other N2K connector.
The Power Tee cable is used to connect to the 12VDC power supply.
