SIMRAD - RF40 Rudder Feedback Unit w/15M Cable

The RF40 is designed for direct connection to NAC-1 and NAC-2 autopilot computers, with variable voltage output and an attached 15 metre (49 foot) cable with plug-and-play connector. The connector can be easily removed for use in other applications. Its extended cable and direct connection make the RF40 an ideal alternative to NMEA 2000® connected sensors, such as the RF25, in situations where it is impractical or otherwise unnecessary to extend a vessel’s NMEA 2000® network within reach of the rudder.
