Lowrance N2K-EXP-RD-2 Network Starter Kit For HDS Series

The Lowrance N2K-EXP-RD-2 Network Starter Kit For HDS Series is designed to establish a complete NMEA 2000 (N2K) network foundation for compatible Lowrance marine electronics. This kit is ideal for anglers, boaters, and marine professionals who operate HDS Series chartplotters and sonar units, simplifying the process of sourcing individual network components.

The kit includes one dual terminating resistor each for the network backbone, two T-connectors for branch networking, a 2-foot extension cable for short-distance connections, a 15-foot extension cable for longer runs, and a single dedicated power node to supply network power. All components feature red connectors and cabling specific to the N2K Red network architecture, ensuring compatibility across the entire Lowrance Red device ecosystem.

This starter kit is particularly beneficial for boat owners upgrading from standalone units to integrated networked systems, as it provides the essential hardware required to connect multiple HDS Series devices—such as primary chartplotters, backup displays, and sonar modules—into a single synchronized network.
