Shallow water cable assembly
Shallow water 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 shallow water normal cables with connectors at both ends, the assembly consists of three parts:
Connector A: SubConn straight plug, 8-pin. Female (MCIL8F) or male (MCIL8M). Connects to the MRU.
Connector B: SubConn straight plug, 8-pin. Female (MCIL8F) or male (MCIL8M). Connects to the system output.
Cable (C): 4 × twisted pairs, length = 2-50m. For more information about the cable, see here.
Supported cable lengths and associated product numbers for shallow water normal cables are given below. For complete cable product list, see here.

Pigtail
Cable assembly overview
For shallow water pigtail cables with connectors on one end only, the assembly consists of two parts:
Connector A: SubConn straight plug, 8-pin. Female (MCIL8F) or male (MCIL8M). Connects to the MRU.
Cable (C): For more information about the cable, see 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.
