Raymarine Digital Radar Cable, RayNet Connector, For HD Radar Antennas

Overview

The Raymarine A802 Radar Cable With RayNet Connector is a digital radar cable range for linking compatible Raymarine radar antennas to a multifunction display through a RayNet connection. It is available in 5 m, 10 m, 15 m, and 25 m lengths, giving installers practical options for short runs on small consoles or longer routes from a mast, arch, hardtop, or radar mount back to the helm.

This cable is made for Raymarine digital radar installations where the cable run needs to carry radar data cleanly between the scanner and the display system. The RayNet connector helps keep the network side of the installation consistent with Raymarine displays and network components that use the RayNet format.

Key features

• Digital radar cable range for compatible Raymarine radar antenna installations.
• RayNet connector supports integration with Raymarine displays and network hardware that use RayNet connections.
• Length options of 5 m, 10 m, 15 m, and 25 m help match the cable run to the vessel layout.
• Useful for routing from radar locations such as a mast, radar arch, hardtop, or pilothouse roof back to the helm electronics area.
• Helps avoid unnecessary cable slack when a shorter route is available, while still offering longer options for larger boats.

Variants

This product is offered in multiple cable lengths so the installation can be matched to the distance between the radar scanner and the display or network connection point.

The length is the changing attribute across the range. The RayNet radar cable format remains consistent across these configurations.

• A80227: Length 5M. This shorter length suits compact helm layouts or installations where the radar is mounted close to the display or network entry point.
• A80228: Length 10M. This length fits many center consoles, pilothouse boats, and hardtop installations with a moderate cable route.
• A80229: Length 15M. This option gives extra routing distance for taller mounting points, overhead runs, or vessels where the cable path is not direct.
• A80230: Length 25M. This long run is suited to larger boats or installations where the radar cable must travel from a mast, arch, or upper structure to a lower helm electronics area.

Compatibility and fit

This cable is intended for Raymarine radar systems that use a RayNet radar cable connection. Before ordering, match the cable length to the actual route on the boat, including service loops, bends, drip loops, and the path through cable glands or conduits.

It is not a universal Ethernet cable for every radar system. The radar, display, and network layout should all be checked for RayNet compatibility before installation.

Installation and routing

Plan the route before pulling the cable through the boat. Radar cable runs often pass through hardtops, arches, masts, liners, or helm cavities, so the selected length should allow a clean path without stretching the cable or forcing tight bends at the connector.

For a cleaner marine installation, keep the cable away from sharp edges, high-heat areas, and moving hardware. Leave enough access at both ends for future service, especially behind multifunction displays and near the radar mount.

Use on board

This cable range is a practical match for boat owners and installers adding or replacing a Raymarine digital radar connection on cruising boats, fishing boats, and pilothouse or hardtop-equipped vessels. The key buying decision is the cable length, since the connection type is intended to stay consistent across the A802 radar cable range.
