5 m

This is a Victron RJ45 UTP cable, 5 m long. It links VE.Bus devices to one another, and it can hook a GX device to VE.Bus or VE.Can. It also connects the Digital Multi Control, the Inverter Control and the Interface MK3-USB. Victron lists this length under part number ASS030065001, and also as ASS030065000.

Our take

The 5 m length sets how far apart two VE.Bus devices, or a VE.Bus device and a GX device, can sit, so measure the run before choosing it. The same cable also serves the Digital Multi Control and the Inverter Control.

From our buying guide

On a boat subpart I covers, an electrical component must not ignite fuel vapor around it unless it is isolated from gasoline fuel sources. Ignition protection is the maker's statement.

Check before you buy:

  • 33 CFR 183 subpart I applies to boats that have a gasoline engine, except an outboard, so a gasoline generator counts.
  • On a boat subpart I covers, each ungrounded output conductor from a battery needs a manually reset, trip-free circuit breaker or fuse within 72 inches of the battery.
