The 879968T6 is specifically designed as a non-terminated data-link section. Termination for the CAN P network must be provided by other components (such as a terminated harness or junction box) elsewhere in the network — not by this cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can I use a longer version if my routing needs more length?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe 879968 family is available in multiple lengths (T10 through T50). Verify routing requirements against your SmartCraft network layout and use the appropriate length — do not coil excess cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How do I tell if my system is CAN P vs. another SmartCraft network type?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nConsult the Mercury SmartCraft installation guide for your engine and instrument model. The blue 10-pin connector and non-DTS designation are key identifiers for the CAN P network used with this harness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eParts Desk Insights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe critical detail with 879968T6 is not just its length — it is a \u003cstrong\u003enon-terminated CAN P harness\u003c\/strong\u003e. It carries no resistor, so it is intended for installations where termination is already provided elsewhere in the network. A visually similar 879981- or 879982-series harness changes the termination configuration and should never be substituted by appearance alone. The most common ordering mistake is selecting a SmartCraft harness by length or connector appearance without confirming the termination type — incorrect termination causes persistent CAN network faults that can be difficult to diagnose after installation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MERC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43563900272676,"sku":"879968T6","price":64.75,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/5799\/7604\/files\/f44e6bbb-1853-41c2-8d8b-2cdf00cc13dd.png?v=1787268837","url":"https:\/\/marisolmarine.com\/products\/mercury-quicksilver-smartcraft-can-p-data-harness-879968t6","provider":"Marisol Marine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
