Product overview

Many Victron inverters, chargers, battery monitors and system panels use RJ45 ports with standard UTP cabling. This cable gives a direct plug-and-play connection between those ports, so there is no need to crimp a custom lead or gamble on a generic patch cable with the wrong pinout.

The 1.8 m length works for most rack, cabinet or wall-panel jobs where the devices are mounted near each other. Victron also offers longer lengths for runs between separate enclosures or rooms. Because this is a low-voltage signal cable, it should be routed away from high-current DC or AC conductors where practical.

Applications

• Connecting a MultiPlus or Quattro inverter/charger to a Color Control GX or Cerbo GX
• Linking a BMV battery monitor to a system display panel
• Communication links within a VE.Bus network in off-grid systems
• Replacing a lost or damaged cable in an existing Victron installation
• Short-run connections in marine, motorhome and vehicle power systems

What's in the box

Installation notes

This cable carries low-voltage communication signals only, not mains or high-voltage DC power. It can be fitted or removed without specialist electrical qualifications. Keep it clear of high-current cabling where you can, and check the correct port and pinout on each device against the Victron manual before connecting.
