Garmin Marine Network RJ45 Cable Connector, O-Ring Seal, 2pk

Overview

The Garmin 010-10603-00 is a 2-pack of marinized RJ45 connector kits for terminating or repairing Garmin Marine Network Ethernet cables on a boat. Each kit includes an RJ45 modular plug, a connector housing with strain relief, an O-ring, and copper tape for the cable shield and drain wire.

This is the part you reach for when you need to pull a network cable through tight conduits, rigging tubes, or a hardtop before the plug can be installed, or when a damaged end needs to be re-terminated without replacing the whole run. Garmin Marine Network cabling uses a crossover arrangement and the cable run between devices should not exceed 100 m.

Key features

• Field-terminable RJ45 connection for Garmin Marine Network cabling, useful after routing cable through chases and tight pass-throughs
• Connector housing with strain relief and an O-ring to help keep the termination sealed at the plug end
• Supplied copper tape supports proper shield and drain wire termination on shielded Ethernet cable
• Supports the side A and side B terminations used to create the required crossover cable for Garmin Marine Network
• Intended for Garmin Marine Network runs up to 100 m between devices

Installation and setup

Plan the cable route first, then terminate once the cable is in place. Installation requires a standard RJ45 modular plug crimping tool, plus a 15 mm wrench to snug the strain-relief nut.

Garmin Marine Network terminations are not the same on both ends. Match the wire order to the correct side A or side B arrangement, then crimp the plug, seat it into the housing, tighten the strain-relief nut without overtightening, and fit the O-ring onto the housing.

Compatibility and fit

This connector kit is for Garmin Marine Network connections that use a sealed RJ45-style termination. It is meant to become the cable end, not a coupler or adapter for standard office Ethernet hardware.

When building custom cables from bulk wire, use shielded Ethernet cable with a drain wire so the copper tape and housing can terminate the shield correctly. Leave enough clearance behind the connected device to tighten the strain relief and avoid sharp bends at the plug.

Use cases on board

Common uses include adding a radar scanner on a hardtop, rerouting a network cable between helm electronics and a remote module, or repairing a connector after a pull-through that nicked the plug. Keeping a spare pair onboard can help get radar or sonar data sharing back online without waiting for a replacement cable run.

This is a good match for DIY installers and technicians who are building custom Garmin Marine Network cable runs, cleaning up cable routing, or maintaining service spares for offshore and coastal boats.

What’s included

• 2 x marinized RJ45 connector housings with strain relief
• 2 x RJ45 modular plugs
• O-rings
• Copper tape strips for shield and drain wire termination

Many products sold by Apollo Lighting include a manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials or workmanship. Warranty terms vary by brand, product category, and model, so eligibility, coverage duration, exclusions, and available remedies are determined by the applicable manufacturer. We recommend reviewing the warranty information provided with your product before installation or use, especially for marine electronics, navigation equipment, lighting, electrical systems, pumps, safety equipment, and other specialized marine products.

If you need warranty service, the claim must follow the process established by the manufacturer, authorized service center, or designated warranty provider. You may be asked for proof of purchase, a serial number, product registration, photos, maintenance or installation records, or other documentation. Apollo Lighting does not determine or modify a manufacturer's warranty coverage or final claim decision, but we are happy to help provide purchase information and direct you to the appropriate manufacturer or warranty resource.

Keep your receipt, product documentation, serial number information, and original packaging when practical. Damage caused by normal wear, misuse, improper installation, insufficient maintenance, corrosion, impact, unauthorized modifications, electrical issues, or operation outside the manufacturer's specifications may not be covered. Warranty claims are separate from standard returns, so a product that has been installed, used, or exposed to marine conditions may no longer qualify for return while still remaining eligible for evaluation under the manufacturer's applicable warranty.
