N2K Micro 4 Way T-Piece Connector
This Actisense 4 Way T-Piece Connector is designed for applications requiring multiple drops or 'ports' from the NMEA 2000 backbone. It simplifies installation—offering the convenience of a single T-Piece while utilizing less space and being more cost-effective than multiple individual T-pieces.
Developed with extensive expertise in interconnect technology and NMEA standards, the Actisense range ensures reliable and efficient connections.
Specifications:
The Actisense N2K Micro 4 Way T-Piece Connector, part number A2K-4WT, is an NMEA 2000 approved component designed to expand network connectivity. This unit is suitable for IT professionals and integrators managing marine or industrial NMEA 2000 networks that require multiple device connections from a single backbone point. It facilitates the creation of up to four drop connections, streamlining installation by consolidating multiple ports into one T-piece. This approach helps optimize space utilization and can be more cost-effective compared to deploying several individual T-pieces. The connector features gold-plated brass and phosphor bronze contacts, a PA66 contact carrier, and an M12 mating thread. Its TPU housing is flame retardant to UL94V-0 and halogen-free, offering IP67 protection when mated. It operates within a temperature range of -20�C to +70�C.
This connector is designed for NMEA 2000 networks where multiple devices or 'drops' need to connect to the backbone from a single point. It simplifies installation and can save space compared to using individual T-pieces for each connection.
The connector has a rated current of 4A and a rated voltage of 60V DC. It features gold-plated brass male contacts and gold-plated phosphor bronze female contacts.
The Actisense N2K Micro 4 Way T-Piece Connector offers IP67 protection when fully mated. Its housing is made from flame-retardant, halogen-free TPU.
Yes, this product is NMEA 2000 Approved and utilizes standard M12 'A' polarization for its contacts, ensuring compatibility with NMEA 2000 backbone and drop cables.
