Overview

The Garmin 010-12067-01 is a 48 ft (15 m) 12 AWG power cable used to feed DC power to compatible Garmin xHD2 and Fantom radar systems. It is the run between the radar pedestal or dome and your boat’s power distribution, which is especially handy when the radar is mounted up on a hardtop, arch, or mast and the wiring route is long.

The 12 AWG conductors help when you need to carry radar current over distance, but proper circuit protection and clean connections still matter. When this cable is used with a 12 kW xHD2 series radar, a voltage converter is required.

Key features

• 48 ft (15 m) length for routing from radar mounting location down to the DC distribution area
• 12 AWG power cable for longer runs where conductor size matters
• Used to power 4 kW, 6 kW, or 12 kW xHD2 series radar systems
• Voltage converter required when used with a 12 kW xHD2 series radar
• Compatible with selected Garmin radar models including GMR 424 xHD2, GMR 426 xHD2, GMR 624 xHD2, GMR 626 xHD2, and GMR Fantom 4, 6, 18, and Fantom 18x/24x dome radars

Installation and setup

Plan the routing before pulling the cable: follow existing chases where possible, avoid sharp bends, and support the run so vibration does not work the conductors against fiberglass edges or metal cutouts. Use chafe protection anywhere the cable passes through bulkheads, hardtops, or radar masts, and leave enough service loop at the radar end to allow future removal without re-pulling the entire run.

Keep the cable away from high-heat engine room surfaces and moving parts, and build in a drip loop if the run enters lockers or electronics bays where water can track along wiring.

Electrical and system integration

Connect to a properly sized breaker or fuse as specified for your radar system and verify the supply voltage at the radar end under load after installation. On boats with long cable runs and busy DC panels, taking the time to confirm voltage drop and connection quality helps prevent nuisance resets when the radar is transmitting.

Compatibility and fit

This is a power cable for compatible Garmin radar installations, not a Garmin Marine Network (Ethernet) cable. It fits situations where you need a 48 ft power run to a radar pedestal or dome; confirm you have the correct cable length for your mounting location and that your specific radar model is in the compatible xHD2 or Fantom families listed above.

It is a good match for refits where the original power lead was cut, corroded, or too short, and for new installs where the radar is mounted high and the clean routing path ends up longer than expected.
