A short VE.Direct cable built for tight installations, with one straight connector and one right angle connector so the lead can exit a device port at 90 degrees instead of straight out. At 0.3m long, it is meant for connecting two Victron devices mounted right next to each other, not for running cable across a panel.

Key features

• Length, 0.3m
• Connectors, one straight, one right angle
• Interface, VE.Direct, for Victron devices with a VE.Direct port
• Weight, 0.015kg (15g)
• SKU, ASS030531203
• GTIN, 8719076019657

Product overview

VE.Direct is Victron's point-to-point serial protocol used to pass data between devices such as MPPT charge controllers, BMV battery monitors, Phoenix inverters and colour control displays. This is the shortest cable in the VE.Direct range, meant for two devices mounted directly alongside one another where a longer cable would only create slack.

The right angle end suits a device mounted flush against a wall, inside a cabinet, or on a DIN rail, where a straight-exit cable would either not fit or would put strain on the port. Keeping the exit at 90 degrees holds the cable profile low and avoids bending stress at the connector body.

Applications

• Connecting an MPPT charge controller to a Cerbo GX or Colour Control GX in the same enclosure
• Linking a BMV battery monitor to a display or GX device in a compact panel
• Short data runs in van conversions, narrowboats and marine builds where space behind devices is limited
• Any VE.Direct setup where a straight connector would protrude into restricted clearance

What's in the box

• 1x VE.Direct cable, 0.3m, one right angle connector and one straight connector

Installation notes

Power down both devices before connecting or disconnecting VE.Direct cables. This cable carries data only, not power. Check that both devices have a VE.Direct port before ordering, as the interface does not interchange with VE.Bus or VE.Can.
