B&G N2K-T-RD NMEA 2000 T-Connector

B&G NMEA 2000 T-Connector (Black Architecture)

The B&G N2K-T-RD (Simrad/Lowrance/Navico SKU 000-0119-79) is a standardized, marine-grade NMEA 2000 T-Connector used to tap an additional device or drop cable into an established NMEA 2000 (N2K) network backbone. Designed for plug-and-play integration across B&G chartplotters, Triton displays, Wind sensors, Autopilot computers, and general marine CAN bus networks, it forms the physical interconnect backbone for vessel-wide sensor sharing.

Featuring industry-standard 5-pin Micro-C male and female threaded connectors, the N2K-T-RD provides two inline connections for the primary network backbone and one perpendicular drop branch connection for a device or power node. Constructed with gold-plated copper contacts and a rugged, IPX7 waterproof molded housing, it protects digital data communication and 12V DC power lines against corrosion, continuous vibration, and environmental moisture.

Key Features

• Standard Micro-C 5-Pin Interface: Fully compatible with all NMEA 2000 Micro-C compliant devices across B&G, Simrad, Lowrance, Garmin, and Raymarine networks.

• Low-Loss Gold-Plated Contacts: Pin contacts feature gold plating over high-conductivity copper alloy to ensure low contact resistance and prevent signal degradation.

• IPX7 Waterproof Protection: Fully sealed overmolded housing with threaded knurled coupling nuts prevents water ingress under harsh deck or bilge conditions.

• Keyed Connectors: Internal indexing prevents misaligned pin mating, guarding against reverse polarity or damaged network pins during installation.
