A2K-4WD NMEA 2000 4-Way Instrument Drop
Reduce your NMEA 2000 cabling requirements, saving time, space and money.
The Actisense 4-way drop makes it easier to reach up to four devices with a single cable.

Typically, when four devices need to be connected to an NMEA 2000 backbone, a T-piece and individual cable is required for each one. This can either mean excessive cabling demands or moving the backbone closer to your devices.

The 4-way drop makes it possible to shorten the length of each cable needed before reaching a T-piece.

Description

A2K-4WD ACTISENSE NMEA 2000 4-Way Drop Cable Hub

The A2K-4WD ACTISENSE is a heavy-duty NMEA 2000 4-way instrument drop cable hub designed to simplify multi-device connections at crowded helm stations, engine rooms, and instrument panels. Combining a consolidated 4-port Micro-C junction block with an integrated 6-meter backbone drop cable, the A2K-4WD ACTISENSE enables installers to connect up to four NMEA 2000 instruments to a main backbone line using a single backbone drop connection.

Constructed with premium overmoulded strain relief, continuous internal shield foil, and nickel-plated metal M12 coupling nuts, the A2K-4WD ACTISENSE delivers superior IP67 water ingress protection and high resistance to engine vibration and electromagnetic interference (EMI). It provides a clean, space-saving alternative to stringing multiple standard T-pieces together behind tight console spaces.

Key Features of the A2K-4WD ACTISENSE

  • Integrated 6-Meter Drop Backbone Cable: Built-in heavy-duty cable connects directly to the primary NMEA 2000 backbone line, saving installation time and reducing connection points.

  • Consolidated 4-Port Junction Block: Expands a single backbone drop location to four female Micro-C drop ports for chartplotters, gauges, VHF radios, and transducers.

  • Space-Saving Console Architecture: Replaces bulky chains of individual T-connectors behind dashboard instrument clusters.

  • IP67 Sealed & Fully Shielded: Continuous internal foil-and-braid shielding protects CAN-bus telemetry against power fluctuations and RF noise.

  • Rugged Metal Coupling Threads: Corrosion-resistant nickel-plated brass M12 rings ensure secure, vibration-proof locking on commercial and recreational vessels.

  • Universal Micro-C Compatibility: 100% NMEA 2000 certified for seamless plug-and-play operation with Simrad, Lowrance, Garmin, Raymarine, Furuno, and B&G devices.

Primary Applications

  • Helm Console Dashboard Hubs: Grouping multifunction displays (MFDs), autopilots, AIS receivers, and marine VHF units at a central instrument panel

  • Flybridge & Second Station Wiring: Extending four NMEA 2000 device drops to an upper deck or secondary steering station via a single backbone run

  • Engine Monitoring & Sensor Networks: Connecting multiple engine telemetry sensors, fuel tank senders, and flow meters in engine spaces back to the main vessel network
