Raymarine A62360 RayNet (F) to RJ45 (M) Network Cable — 1 m

Raymarine A62360 RayNet (F) to RJ45 (M) Network Cable — 1 m

The Raymarine A62360 is a 1-metre network cable with a RayNet female connector at the display end and a standard RJ45 male connector at the device end. It bridges Raymarine’s waterproof RayNet Ethernet port — found on Axiom, Element, HybridTouch, and compatible Raymarine displays and accessories — to any standard Ethernet device: a laptop, a router, an Ethernet switch, or other RJ45-equipped marine electronics.

The 1 m length is suited for short runs at the helm, such as connecting an MFD directly to an adjacent network switch or a PC for software updates and chart loading.

Key Features

• RayNet female connector (display/device end) — waterproof, locking Raymarine Ethernet port
• RJ45 male connector (network/PC end) — standard Ethernet interface
• 1 m (3.3 ft) length — ideal for short helm runs and direct device-to-switch connections
• Allows connection of RayNet-equipped Raymarine devices to standard Ethernet networks, switches, and computers
• OEM Raymarine cable — correct connector type and pinout for RayNet-equipped displays

Specifications

• Part Number: A62360
• Connector A: RayNet female (waterproof, locking)
• Connector B: RJ45 male (standard Ethernet)
• Length: 1 m (3.3 ft)
• Cable Type: Shielded network cable
• Weight: approx. 120 g (0.26 lb)

Understanding RayNet vs. RJ45

RayNet is Raymarine’s waterproof Ethernet connector standard. RayNet ports on Raymarine displays look similar to standard Ethernet ports but use a locking, weatherproof connector housing that cannot accept a standard RJ45 plug directly. This cable bridges the two standards: the RayNet end locks securely into the display or accessory, while the RJ45 end connects to any standard Ethernet port on a switch, router, or computer.

Compatible Applications

• Raymarine Axiom, Axiom+, and Axiom 2 Pro MFDs with RayNet network ports
• Raymarine Element series chartplotters with RayNet connectivity
• Raymarine HybridTouch MFDs (e Series, gS series) with RayNet ports
• Connecting a Raymarine MFD to a standard Ethernet network switch at the helm
• Connecting a Raymarine MFD to a laptop or PC for chart updates, software updates, or Lighthouse chart transfers
• Connecting Raymarine radar units or modules with RayNet output to a display or network switch
• Short-run MFD-to-switch connections where a 1 m cable is sufficient

Technical Notes

• Which end connects to the display? The RayNet female end connects to the RayNet port on the Raymarine display or device. The RJ45 male end connects to the Ethernet switch, router, or computer.
• Can I use a standard Ethernet cable instead? No. RayNet ports on Raymarine displays require the RayNet connector — a standard RJ45 plug will not seat or lock into a RayNet port. This cable is required for that connection.
• Is 1 m long enough? This cable is designed for short, direct connections at the helm. For longer runs between an MFD and a network switch in a different location, see the RayNet (F) to RJ45 (M) Cable — 10 m (RAY-A80159).
• What if I need to connect two RayNet devices together? Use a RayNet-to-RayNet cable instead: the A62361 RayNet to RayNet Cable — 2 m or the A62362 RayNet to RayNet Cable — 10 m.
• Does this cable work with a RayNet (M) port? No. This cable has a RayNet female connector and is designed for RayNet female ports on displays and accessories. For a RayNet male to RJ45 connection, see the A80513 RayNet (M) to RJ45 (M) Adaptor Cable.

Parts Desk Insights

Best Use Case: The A62360 at 1 m is the right cable when connecting a Raymarine MFD directly to a helm-mounted Ethernet switch or when attaching a laptop for a Lighthouse OS update or chart transfer. It’s also the correct cable for direct MFD-to-radar connections at the helm where the devices are mounted close together. For any run longer than arm’s reach at the helm, the 10 m version is a better choice — you can always coil and secure excess cable, but you cannot add length to a cable that’s too short.

Common Issues: The most common mistake is attempting to plug a standard RJ45 cable directly into the RayNet port on the display — it won’t seat or lock, and forcing it can damage the port housing. Confirm which end of the RayNet port is male vs. female before ordering, as using the wrong gender will require an additional adaptor. If you need to connect to a RayNet male port (found on some older accessories and modules), the A80513 adaptor is the correct part rather than this cable.
