Overview

The Garmin 010-10781-00 is a replacement power/data cable for the GSD 22 remote sounder module, with a 7-pin plug on the module end and bare-wire leads for hardwiring. It is used when you are replacing a damaged harness, re-routing wiring after a refit, or cleaning up an installation where splices and corrosion have started to cause trouble.

This cable is intended for a DC system that matches the GSD 22 power requirements of 10 to 35 Vdc and the recommended 3.0 A AGC/3AG fuse on the positive feed. The bare-wire termination makes it easy to land on a fused distribution panel, breaker, or an existing junction point inside a console or electronics box.

Key features

• 7-pin connector to bare-wire termination for a direct replacement on GSD 22 installations
• Supports the GSD 22 power input range of 10 to 35 Vdc with a recommended 3.0 A AGC/3AG fuse on the positive lead
• Locking-ring style connection helps keep the plug seated on the module in a high-vibration marine environment
• Power wiring can be extended up to 100 ft (30 m) total length using 18 AWG wire when the mounting location is far from the DC distribution
• CANet wiring in the harness can be extended up to 80 ft (24.38 m) total length when used with a CANet Connections Kit

Compatibility and fit

Compatible device: GSD 22. The keyed 7-pin connector mates with the POWER port on the GSD 22, while the bare-wire end is meant to be terminated on your boat wiring and any required network wiring method used by the installation.

Installation and setup

At the module, align the connector notch and the locking ring tab, press the plug in until it is fully seated, then turn the locking ring clockwise until it stops. Route the cable so it is supported along the run and has strain relief near the module, with enough slack to avoid pulling on the connector when the boat is pounding or the service access panel is opened.

Cable routing and extensions

For longer runs, extend the power conductors with 18 AWG wire up to a total length of 100 ft (30 m). Keep splices in a dry, serviceable spot and protect connections from moisture and corrosion, especially in saltwater boats where bilge humidity and spray can migrate into wiring chases.
