External Cable 

 

The VR2C uses an external cable to connect to other devices.  VEMCO has successfully used cable with the 
following specifications: 

 

2 Twisted Pair - 18 AWG stranded tinned copper (STC); 0.070” PP insulated; Individual foil shield, 
Drain (Twisted Pair coloring scheme: Pair 1: Green/White; Pair 2: Red/Black) 

 

Overall Copper Braided Shield (80% coverage) 

 

Black polyurethane jacket to an overall outer diameter of approximately 0.290” 

 

Two jacketed Kevlar 49 strength members with breaking strength of 350lb each 

 

UV stabilized 

 

SubConn MCIL8F connector on VR2C end 

 

There could be variations on these cable specifications based on individual customer needs. VEMCO should 
be consulted when designing specific cabling solutions.

Case External Dimensions 

 
The dimensions of the VR2C case can be useful when designing a mooring plan or mooring equipment.  The 
dimensions, in inches, are shown in the drawings below.
