The Mercury 84-879171T23 Extension Cable adds 9.8 feet to the GPS line used with the 8M0024918 kit, giving you enough length to route the antenna cleanly across larger consoles or more spread-out rigging paths. Built for CAN P GPS systems without an Auto Pilot module, it extends the signal without adding noise or setup steps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"519\" data-end=\"522\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"524\" data-end=\"540\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"524\" data-end=\"540\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"544\" data-end=\"649\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"544\" data-end=\"568\"\u003e9.8-Foot Extension –\u003c\/strong\u003e Offers generous extra length for long rigging runs or distant mounting points.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"652\" data-end=\"744\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"652\" data-end=\"674\"\u003eCAN P GPS Signal –\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed for the dedicated GPS feed used on non-Auto Pilot systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"747\" data-end=\"824\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"747\" data-end=\"771\"\u003eGPS Kit Compatible –\u003c\/strong\u003e Intended for use with Mercury’s 8M0024918 GPS Kit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"827\" data-end=\"916\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"827\" data-end=\"847\"\u003eOEM Connectors –\u003c\/strong\u003e Uses factory plug-in ends for a secure, no-guesswork installation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"919\" data-end=\"1003\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"919\" data-end=\"944\"\u003eClean Data Transfer –\u003c\/strong\u003e Maintains a steady GPS signal across the added distance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1006\" data-end=\"1110\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1006\" data-end=\"1028\"\u003eFlexible Routing –\u003c\/strong\u003e Slim, easy-to-run cable for clean paths through tight or complex rigging areas.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1112\" data-end=\"1115\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1117\" data-end=\"1134\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1117\" data-end=\"1134\"\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1138\" data-end=\"1157\"\u003eGPS Kit 8M0024918\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1160\" data-end=\"1179\"\u003eCAN P GPS systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1182\" data-end=\"1216\"\u003eBoats without Auto Pilot modules\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr data-start=\"1218\" data-end=\"1221\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1223\" data-end=\"1259\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1223\" data-end=\"1259\"\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Practical Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1261\" data-end=\"1668\"\u003eThis extension cable makes it easier to place the GPS antenna where it performs best—usually high, open, and away from metal or electronics that cause interference.
