{"product_id":"qbp874609","title":"Garmin GMS 10 Network Port Expander, 5-Port, 100 Mbps, IPX7","description":"\u003ch6\u003eOverview\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Garmin 010-00351-00 is a GMS 10 network port expander that connects multiple chartplotters and Garmin Marine Network devices so they can share data across a switched 10\/100 Mbps network. It adds five Garmin Marine Network ports in one enclosure, which helps when a helm system has outgrown the available NETWORK ports on the displays.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePower is 10 to 35 Vdc for typical 12 V and 24 V boats, with 2.75 W maximum draw and an inline AGC\/3AG 2.0 amp fuse on the power lead. The case is fully gasketed with an IPX7 waterproof rating, and weather caps protect unused network ports from spray and washdowns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 3.5 in W x 2.3 in H x 11.8 in D (89.0 x 57.2 x 300.8 mm) and about 1.2 lb, it mounts easily near other network electronics. It also passes control signals so networked sensors can power on and off with a connected chartplotter, reducing the need to switch each sensor circuit separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive Garmin Marine Network ports for expanding a system beyond two networked devices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10\/100 Mbps switch with per-port LED indicators for link\/activity, duplex\/collision status, and 100 Mbps operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShares data between compatible network devices, including mapping and sounder data as well as position information\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePasses control signals so connected sensors can power on and off with a chartplotter on the same expander\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10 to 35 Vdc input for 12 V and 24 V systems; 2.75 W maximum draw; inline AGC\/3AG 2.0 amp fuse on the power cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully gasketed case with IPX7 waterproof rating and threaded, capped connectors to help resist vibration and spray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range of -15 C to 70 C for typical helm and electronics-compartment installs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eWhat’s included\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGMS 10 network port expander\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGarmin marine network cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7-pin power cable with inline 2.0 amp fuse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrommet for cable pass-through\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting hardware kit with brackets and screws\/nuts for installs that cannot use the factory-drilled mounting holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eMount the unit where network cables can reach your displays and other network devices without tight bends, and leave room for the cable heads and locking rings at each port. A location away from heavy foot traffic helps protect the connectors and reduces the chance of cables being snagged in rough water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNetwork connections use Garmin Marine Network cables that lock in place with a threaded cap. Keep the weather caps installed on any unused ports. When routing cables through bulkheads, use the included grommet to finish the hole and reduce chafe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe power lead uses a red positive wire and a black negative wire for connection to a battery or fuse block. Keep the inline 2.0 amp fuse in place. If you use the brackets, note that fasteners for securing the unit to the boat are separate from the bracket hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and system integration\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis expander is for systems that use Garmin Marine Network ports labeled NETWORK on compatible chartplotters and network accessories. It is not a NMEA 2000 backbone component, and it is not intended for standard computer Ethernet connections. Plan your network around Garmin Marine Network cables and the physical connector style used on your equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor larger installs, multiple expanders can be mounted near each other to grow the number of available network ports while keeping cable runs short and serviceable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse cases on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a practical fit when you are running more than two networked Garmin displays, or when you are adding multiple network sensors and want them available across the helm. It is commonly mounted behind the helm, inside an electronics locker, or in a protected console area where cable routing stays clean and dry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garmin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52269017071797,"sku":"QBP874609","price":269.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1298704_qbp874609.jpg?v=1771541479","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp874609","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
