Bluewater NMEA 2000 2-Way Marine Network Tee

The Bluewater 2-way network tee expands an NMEA 2000 system by providing additional connection points between the backbone and connected electronics. Its compact format is useful when a network needs to add devices without creating a loose group of adapters and short cable sections. The molded five-pin interfaces are designed for secure marine connections in locations exposed to moisture and vibration. It can be used when adding a display, sensor, power feed, or other compatible network component.

The tee follows NMEA 2000 networking conventions so it can be incorporated into a properly built backbone alongside equipment from different compatible manufacturers. Water-resistant connector construction helps protect the data path at each connection point. The two-way layout keeps a small expansion organized while preserving access to the individual connectors for service. That is especially useful behind consoles where space is limited and network wiring can quickly become crowded.

• Two connection branches in one compact fitting
• Five-pin molded connector interfaces
• Supports clean expansion of an existing marine network
• Helps reduce loose adapters behind electronics panels

Install the tee where connected cables can be supported without placing strain on the connector bodies. Network termination and backbone power still need to follow the requirements of the existing system. For additional tees, drop cables, backbone components, and gateways, browse Marine Networking.
