Standard tee-mounted terminators work well on most trunks, but when a device sits at the end of the network in a tight location (the top of a mast, inside an instrument pod, within a mounting pipe), there's often no room for a separate tee. The IT-CM-CF solves that: it plugs directly into the device's Micro-C female port, and the network cable connects to the other end via a screw terminal for a secure, waterproof termination point with no tee required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUse\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInstall one at each end of the NMEA 2000 trunk — exactly two per network, no more, no less. The female end (CF) connects to the device's Micro male port; the male end (CM) connects to the network trunk cable via screw terminals. Polarity note: normally a male terminator is used where the male pins point back toward the power source; this inline version's gender reversal is specifically for situations where the standard orientation doesn't work — confirm gender against your specific installation before ordering. Note: this product has been updated from blue to black housing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maretron","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45225936650422,"sku":"MAR\/IT-CM-CF","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0642\/6584\/6966\/files\/MARITCMCF_001.jpg?v=1783524983","url":"https:\/\/ampedupmarine.com\/products\/maretron-it-cm-cf","provider":"Amped Up Marine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
