Purchase Ethernet Cables and Equipment

The shape of the Ethernet ports determines the cable(s) you need to purchase for direct control head-to-control head connection.
Use the table below to determine your cable needs.
To network more than two control heads, you will need to purchase the Humminbird AS ETH 5PGL Ethernet Switch. For each APEX
or SOLIX control head you want to connect to the switch, you will need 1 AS EC [length]E cable. For each HELIX control head you
want to connect to the switch, you will need 1 AS EC [length]E cable and 1 AS EC QDE cable.
Control Heads
(2) HELIX Units (Hourglass-shaped Ethernet Ports)
(1) HELIX Unit (Hourglass-Shaped Port) and
(1) APEX or SOLIX Unit (Round Ethernet Port)
(2) APEX or SOLIX Units (Round Ethernet Ports)
NOTE: The AS EC [length]E cable is available in a variety of lengths. To purchase the Ethernet Cables and extension cables, visit our
Web site at humminbird.johnsonoutdoors.com.
NOTE: A 5PGL switch is compatible with HELIX G3N and G4N control heads and all SOLIX and APEX control heads. A network of
exclusively 5PGL switches and compatible control heads can contain 4+ Ethernet Switches, 5+ Humminbird control heads, and one
of each type of accessory. Networks that include at least one 5PXG switch can only support three Ethernet Switches and four
Humminbird control heads.
NOTE: For a 5PGL switch and a 5PXG switch to be compatible on the same network, all control heads on the network must be
compatible with the 5PGL. Non-CHIRP control heads are not compatible with a network containing a 5PGL switch.
