Transducer Cable

A 30 ft (10m) cable is supplied with the transducer. The transducer
cable may be extended up to a maximum of 60 ft (20 m) using
optional extension cables.
The transducer cable connector has a nut that has been removed to aid
installation. To allow you to complete the installation without cutting
the cable, ensure that any holes you drill are large enough to accept
the connector, with the nut removed.
After the cable has been run through the holes, this nut must be
attached before the cable can be connected, as described in
Transducer Cable Connections on page 39.
CAUTION:
Do not cut the transducer cable or remove the connector. Do not
try to shorten or splice the cable. If the cable is cut, it cannot be
repaired. Cutting the cable will also void the warranty.
