Marine cable assembly
Marine cables are available in two versions - normal (terminated with connectors at both ends) and pigtail (connector on one end only) - and can be supplied in various lengths.
Normal
Cable assembly overview
For marine normal cables with connectors at both ends, the assembly consists of three parts:
Connector A: Marine straight plug, 16-pin (male or female). Connects to the MRU.
Connector B: Marine straight plug, 16-pin (male or female). Connects to the system output (e.g., the junction box).
Cable (C): 4 × twisted pairs (AWG24) + 6 × single cores (AWG24) + 2 × single cores (AWG22), length = 2-100m. For more information about the cable, see here.
Supported cable lengths and associated product numbers for marine normal cables are given below. For complete cable product list, see here.

Cable assembly overview
For marine pigtail cables with connectors on one end only, the assembly consists of two parts:
Connector A: Marine straight plug, 16-pin (male or female). Connects to the MRU.
Cable (C): 4 × twisted pairs (AWG24) + 6 × single cores (AWG24) + 2 × single cores (AWG22), length = 3-20m. For more information about the cable, see here.

Junction box signal diagram
To find the associated junction box diagram compatible with marine normal and pigtail cables, check out the signal diagrams for junction box 2.0/3.0 here.
Connector compatibility
Both connector A and connector B can be either male or female, and they share the same internal pinout arrangement. Hence, they are mutually compatible. This applies to both normal and pigtail cable assemblies.
