Raymarine Raynet to RJ45 Female Adapter 100mm

The Raymarine Raynet to RJ45 Female Adapter 100mm (Part Number A80247) is a specialized marine networking connector that bridges legacy RJ45 digital radar systems with modern Raymarine Raynet-compatible equipment. This adapter features a Raynet Female connector on one end and a waterproof RJ45 Female Gland connector on the other, enabling seamless integration between different generations of marine electronics without sacrificing reliability in saltwater environments.

The 100mm cable length and integrated gland design create a compact, weatherproof connection point that resists corrosion—critical for offshore and coastal operations where salt spray accelerates connector degradation. The RJ45 Female Gland specifically provides a watertight seal at the connection interface, preventing moisture intrusion that could compromise radar signal integrity or introduce electrical faults. This adapter is engineered for direct connection to modern Raymarine systems including the HS-5 Network Switch and ACE/gS Series multifunction displays, making it an essential compatibility solution for vessels upgrading navigation suites without complete system replacement.

Marine operators managing mixed-generation radar installations—particularly those transitioning from older RJ45-based digital radar cables to Raynet topology—rely on this adapter to maintain operational continuity. The adapter eliminates the need for full cable replacement, reducing downtime and cost during system modernization. Weighing 0.2 pounds with minimal footprint, it installs cleanly at the display or switch interface without creating cable management complications in the pilothouse or below-deck electronics compartments typical of commercial and recreational vessels.
