Maretron Mini/Micro Tee

The Maretron Mini/Micro Tee connector is designed to tap into a backbone network trunk line and add a drop connection with precision and reliability. This specialized tee-connector features Mini connectors on the trunk lines and a Micro connector on the drop line, making it the ideal solution for expanding networked marine systems where space constraints and connection density demand compact, error-free solutions.

Gold contacts throughout the connector eliminate oxidation and ensure the lowest signal loss at each junction point—critical for marine environments where salt spray and moisture accelerate corrosion of base-metal connections. The keyed connector design prevents reversed insertions and wiring errors, reducing installation troubleshooting time on vessels where system diagnostics can be costly and time-sensitive. The compact 2 x 2 x 3 inch form factor integrates seamlessly into tight panel spaces typical of modern marine instrument clusters.

This connector serves marine electronics installers, vessel systems integrators, and boat owners expanding integrated navigation and monitoring networks. It is essential for multi-sensor configurations where NMEA backbone architecture requires bridging between different connector scales. The Mini/Micro Tee reduces wiring complexity and panel port congestion while maintaining the galvanic isolation and signal integrity that mission-critical marine systems demand.

Maretron is known for backward compatibility and modular network design, allowing this tee to integrate into existing single-network or multi-network topologies without requiring full system replacement. The lightweight aluminum or composite construction (0.2 lbs) adds negligible weight to panel assemblies.
