Product details
Description and Specifications
A2K-TDC-3M NMEA2000 Micro Cable Assembly - 3M
Available in various lengths, the cable assemblies can be used as either a drop cable from a NMEA 2000 backbone or to extend the length of the backbone cable.
Actisense Lite cable assemblies allow quick installation and come with quality reassurance as only the Actisense UL-certified cable is used.
NMEA 2000 cable includes five wires within a single waterproof cable: power and ground wires, two signal (data) wires, and a drain wire. The drain wire connects to the cable shield, which protects the signal, power, and ground wires from external Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) and helps reduce RFI emission from the cable.
NMEA 2000 Lite cable can be used to create a backbone up to 100 meters in length. If the backbone length required exceeds 100 meters, the center of the bus can be extended with an NMEA 2000 mini cable to keep the outer Lite sections to the 100-meter maximum.
The maximum length of a drop cable (distance from the backbone) is 6 meters. It is important to limit each drop length to the minimum required, as the total of all drop lengths must not exceed 72 meters.
The Actisense range of NMEA 2000 connectors and cables has been designed using our specialist interconnect and NMEA knowledge.

FAQs
Please read our FAQs page to find out more.
When will my order ship?
For in-stock items, orders placed by 4:00 PM EST are eligible to ship the same day. If any item in the order is not currently in stock, shipment timing will depend on availability.
What is your return window?
Eligible merchandise may be returned within 30 days from the date of receipt. All returns require a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number before anything is sent back. For the smoothest experience, we ask customers to contact Salina Vita first so we can coordinate the request properly. Returned merchandise must be complete, in its original packaging, and in resalable condition. Items that arrive incomplete, improperly packed, or not suitable for resale may not qualify for return approval.
Are restocking fees possible?
Yes. Approved returns may be subject to a restocking fee of up to 15%. Non-stock items may not be returned. In addition, opened or unsealed DVDs, CDs, and cartography products are non-returnable unless defective. If the product falls into CWR’s excluded media categories—such as opened or unsealed cartography, DVDs, or CDs—it is not returnable unless defective.
If my unit needs warranty service, should I send it back to Salina Vita?
No. Units requiring service, whether under warranty or otherwise, should be returned directly to the appropriate manufacturer, not to Salina Vita. We are always happy to help guide you to the correct manufacturer support path. Absolutely. While the service destination is the manufacturer, we can help you identify the proper support channel and make the process feel more straightforward and well-managed. Units that require service themselves, however, should go directly to the manufacturer under CWR’s policy.
I still have more Questions, can we contact you?
At Salina Vita, we believe premium marine commerce should feel measured, transparent, and reassuring. If you have a question about a shipment, return eligibility, or manufacturer service, contact us before taking the next step and we will guide you with the discretion and clarity your vessel deserves.
