Victron Energy VE.Can RJ45 Terminator, 2pk

Overview

The Victron Energy ASS030700000 is a VE.Can RJ45 terminator set supplied as a bag of two for completing a Victron VE.Can communication network. These small RJ45 plugs sit at the ends of the VE.Can bus, where they help keep CAN communication stable by terminating the line rather than leaving the network open.

On a boat, this is the kind of part that matters most when several Victron devices are linked through a GX device, CANUSB interface, Lynx Shunt VE.Can, or other VE.Can equipment. A properly terminated network helps avoid communication errors that can be hard to trace later, especially in electrical spaces where vibration, long cable runs, and service access are all part of the installation.

Key features

• Bag includes two VE.Can RJ45 terminators, enough to terminate both ends of a typical VE.Can bus.
• RJ45 plug format matches Victron VE.Can ports and VE.Can cabling layouts.
• Used at the end points of a CAN bus to reduce signal reflections and support stable device communication.
• Useful as a replacement set or spare set for Victron installations where terminators were not included, were misplaced, or need to stay on board for service work.
• Suitable for Victron marine power systems that use VE.Can communication between compatible chargers, battery monitors, shunts, GX devices, and network accessories.

Compatibility and fit

This terminator is for Victron VE.Can networks that use RJ45 VE.Can connections. It should not be treated as a general Ethernet networking accessory, even though it uses an RJ45-style plug. It is also not intended for unused VE.Bus ports, which should be handled according to the installation requirements of the connected Victron equipment.

For a standard VE.Can layout, one terminator is normally fitted at each physical end of the bus. The rest of the devices sit between those two end points using the appropriate VE.Can cabling and connection order.

Installation and setup

Installation is straightforward: plug a terminator into the open VE.Can socket at one end of the network, then use the second terminator at the other end of the same VE.Can run. It is a low-profile part, but it should still be placed where the RJ45 connection is protected from being pulled, crushed, or soaked during normal service access.

This set is a practical match for installers, boat owners, and technicians maintaining Victron-based electrical systems on cruising boats, fishing boats, and other vessels where VE.Can communication is part of the power system.
