Actisense A2K-GCF-0M25 NMEA 2000 Gender Changer Cable

Actisense NMEA 2000 Female-to-Female Gender Changer Cable Assembly (A2K-GCF-0M25)

The Actisense A2K-GCF-0M25 is a specialized, high-grade NMEA 2000 Micro Gender Changer Cable Assembly measuring 0.25 meters (∼ 0.82 feet) in length. Designed with straight female M12 connectors on both ends, it allows marine installers to change the connector gender of a drop or backbone cable segment, bridge mismatched cabling ends, or adapt custom-terminated field attachable runs within an NMEA 2000 network.

Constructed using UL-certified bulk Micro cable with heavy shielding, gold-plated contacts, and overmolded IP67 connectors, the A2K-GCF-0M25 prevents ground loops and signal interference across the CAN-bus data lines. Its flexible 0.25m cable length relieves strain on adjacent device sockets and panel connectors compared to rigid one-piece gender adaptors.

Key Features

• Female-to-Female Conversion: Reverses connector polarity to bridge mismatched male connector terminations or extend backbone runs.

• Strain-Relieved Cable Design: The 0.25m flexible lead prevents physical mechanical leverage stress on instrument ports and bulkhead connectors.

• Complete EMI/RFI Shielding: Foil shielding and outer braid isolate CAN-bus data signals from high-power engine noise and radio interference.

• Gold-Plated Brass Pin Contacts: Delivers minimal contact resistance and long-term corrosion resistance in marine environments.

• IP67 Waterproof Overmolding: Sealed connector bodies and threaded lock rings resist fuel, oil, saltwater spray, and deck immersion.
