It runs on 10 to 35 Vdc and uses a sealed housing rated to IPX7, so it can live at the helm where spray, washdowns, and vibration are part of the routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCards inserted in the reader are shared across compatible Garmin devices on the same Garmin Marine Network, which keeps chart and software updates from turning into a behind-the-console project. It is not compatible with Garmin chartplotters prior to the GPSMAP 8000 Series and GPSMAP 8500.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor planning the mounting spot, the unit measures 54.3 x 124.1 x 81.2 mm and the compass-safe distance is 915 mm (36 in). Operating temperature range is -15 to 70 C.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo SD card slots behind a magnetic door, with mounting that works in horizontal or vertical orientation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIPX7-rated, fully gasketed high-impact plastic housing for wet helms and washdowns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGarmin Marine Network integration so card data is available to compatible devices on the network\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide input range of 10 to 35 Vdc for 12V and 24V systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow power draw for continuous installation: typical 80 mA at 12 Vdc, max 240 mA at 12 Vdc, 2.4 W max at 10 Vdc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecified 7.5 A fast-acting fuse requirement and 915 mm (36 in) compass-safe distance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eWhat’s included\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGarmin Card Reader\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNetwork cable (6 ft)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDocumentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reader is meant for flush mounting, so it fits cleanly into a dash panel, electronics box face, or nav station bulkhead where you want quick card access. Plan for cable routing behind the mounting surface and keep the door area clear so you can insert and remove cards without fighting a steering wheel or companionway trim.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause it is a sealed unit, installation quality still matters. Use marine sealant where appropriate for your panel material and keep the gasketed door area free of burrs, dust, and panel flex that can keep the door from closing flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and system integration\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe card reader connects into a Garmin Marine Network using a Garmin Marine Network cable and should be powered from the same source as other devices on that network when possible. It supports 10 to 35 Vdc, which covers typical 12V and 24V onboard electrical systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFit-wise, it is a practical add-on when your compatible Garmin display is mounted where the built-in card slots are hard to reach, or when you want a second access point for chart cards and updates at a different station.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis setup makes the most sense on boats running a Garmin Marine Network with compatible GPSMAP systems where chart updates, software updates, or data transfers happen regularly. It is also a clean way to keep SD card access at the helm while the main display stays fully secured in a glass dash.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and care\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the door and sealing surfaces clean so the magnetic closure can sit flush. After salt spray or washdowns, a fresh-water rinse and a quick wipe around the door opening helps prevent salt buildup from working its way into the seal over time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garmin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52269656637621,"sku":"QBP111110","price":209.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1300893_qbp111110.webp?v=1771545085","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp111110","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
