Plan and install an NMEA 2000 network
An NMEA 2000 network consists of a powered backbone from
which drop cables connect to NMEA 2000 devices. The backbone
needs to run within 6 m (20 ft) of the locations of all products to be
connected, typically in a bow to stern layout.
The following guidelines apply:
• The total length of the backbone should not exceed 100 meters
(328 ft).
• A single drop cable has a maximum length of 6 meters (20 ft).
The total length of all drop cables combined should not exceed
78 meters (256 ft).
• A terminator must be installed at each end of the backbone. The
terminator can be a terminator plug or a unit with a built-in
terminator.
