Upgrade your boat's navigation system without replacing all your trusted gear. The Raymarine SeaTalk^ng converter kit bridges the gap between older SeaTalk¹ instruments and modern SeaTalk^ng networks, keeping your ST40 bidata units, ST60+ instruments, Raystar 125 GPS sensors, and LifeTag man-overboard systems fully operational alongside newer Raymarine multifunction displays and autopilots.

Seamless Integration for Legacy Marine Electronics

This compact inline converter ensures smooth data sharing across your vessel's network. SeaTalk¹ devices transmit essential info like heading, speed, depth, and GPS position directly to SeaTalk^ng backbone, which uses NMEA 2000 protocols for faster, more reliable communication. No more isolated instruments—everything talks to everything, enhancing situational awareness whether you're cruising coastal waters or tackling offshore passages.

Key Advantages for Boaters

• Rugged Marine Build: Engineered to withstand saltwater corrosion, vibration, and extreme temperatures, just like all Raymarine gear.
• Plug-and-Play Simplicity: Minimal wiring means quick setup, even for DIY installers, saving time and professional fees.
• Network Expansion Ready: Start with basic connectivity and add spurs for radars, AIS, thermal cameras, or digital switching as your setup grows.
• Proven Reliability: Backed by Raymarine's decades of innovation in marine tech, trusted by professional anglers, yacht owners, and commercial operators.

Complete Kit for Instant Connectivity

Everything you need arrives in one box, eliminating guesswork and extra purchases. Connect your SeaTalk¹ devices to the SeaTalk^ng backbone effortlessly:

• SeaTalk¹ to SeaTalk^ng converter unit
• Two SeaTalk^ng terminators for secure network ends
• Two blanking plugs to seal unused ports
• 400mm (15-inch) SeaTalk¹-to-converter cable
• SeaTalk^ng power cable for stable 12V supply
• 1-meter SeaTalk^ng spur cable for flexible routing

These components create a foundational SeaTalk^ng backbone, ready for immediate use or future expansions with Raymarine cables and tees.

Easy Step-by-Step Installation Tips

1. Power down your boat's electrical system for safety.
2. Mount the converter near your SeaTalk¹ devices, ideally in a dry console area.
3. Connect the short 400mm cable from SeaTalk¹ yellow data wire to the converter's input.
4. Attach the spur cable to the converter's output and run it to your SeaTalk^ng backbone.
5. Install terminators at both ends of the backbone and power up—watch data flow instantly.

Pro tip: Use backbone cable clips for tidy runs, and always check polarity on power connections to avoid issues.

Why Choose This Converter for Your Vessel?

Modernizing electronics piecemeal is common on boats with mixed-age gear. This kit avoids the expense and hassle of full replacements, preserving your investment in reliable legacy sensors. SeaTalk^ng delivers drop-resistant cabling and higher data rates, reducing latency for real-time autopilot adjustments or radar overlays. Boaters report fewer glitches and easier troubleshooting compared to mixed-protocol hacks.

Integrate the past and future of your marine electronics today—reliable performance awaits on every voyage.
