If your radio has a different connector style, this is not the correct harness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe data breakout is for NMEA 0183 wiring. It is not a NMEA 2000 drop cable and it does not connect directly into a NMEA 2000 backbone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlan the route from the radio to your power distribution and any terminal strips before terminating the leads. The 6.5 ft (2 m) length works well for many helm consoles, but measure the actual path and leave a small service loop so the radio can be removed later without stressing the connector.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse quality crimp connectors with adhesive-lined heat shrink on terminations and secure the harness so vibration does not pull on the 8-pin plug. Route it away from sharp edges and high-heat areas, and avoid bundling it tightly with high-current wiring when possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eOn-board use notes\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse the NMEA 0183 leads when you want the VHF to exchange serial data with older plotters and GPS sources, such as position information for DSC functions. Use the hailer leads only when you are wiring the radio to a hailer horn or PA speaker circuit that matches the radio’s hailer output requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis harness is a good match for refits where the boat already has NMEA 0183 wiring at the helm, or for straightforward VHF 315 or VHF 315i replacements where you want a clean single-cable run behind the console.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garmin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52269244186805,"sku":"QBP821265","price":79.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1299259_qbp821265.jpg?v=1771542746","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp821265","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
