Cable Type
C16* DC power cable
The DC power cable from the WBT power supply to the transceiver is provided with the
power supply. The Wide Band Transceiver (WBT) can be powered by a large capacity
battery. The battery must be placed close to the Wide Band Transceiver (WBT) to
minimize power loss in the cable.
C17* AC power cable
C18 Synchronization
cable
If you use more than one Wide Band Transceiver (WBT) in your EK80 system, all
synchronization input signals to the Auxiliary ports must be provided by the same
source.
C19 Not used
C20** Transducer cable
The transducer cable is provided with the transducer.
C21* AC power cable
C22-24 Not used
C25* AC power cable
The power cable on the Ethernet switch may comprise a separate power supply.
C26–29 Not used
EC150-3C cables
Cable Type
C8 Ethernet cable
It is very important that a high-quality Ethernet cable is used. You must use CAT-5E
STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) quality or better. If you use a cable with lower bandwidth
capacity you will reduce the EK80 performance.
C30* AC power cable
C31 Synchronization
cable
Synchronization is an optional feature. We strongly recommend that each signal cable
is equipped with galvanic isolation. Galvanic isolation reduces the risk of noise.
C32 Ground cable
