A BMV-712 Smart normally includes a 10-meter \/ 33-foot RJ12 UTP cable. The ASS030066050 is the shorter 5-meter \/ 16.4-foot Victron option for installations where the supplied cable is longer than needed.\n        \u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n      \u003cdetails style=\"background:#FFFFFF; border:1px solid #E2E8F0; border-left:5px solid #2E91E5; border-radius:10px; padding:18px;\"\u003e\n        \u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer; color:#1A202C; font-weight:700; font-size:16px;\"\u003e\n          What is the difference between RJ12, RJ45, and VE.Direct cables?\n        \u003c\/summary\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"margin:13px 0 0 0;\"\u003e\n          This six-conductor RJ12 UTP cable connects a BMV shunt to its BMV display. RJ45 cables are wider eight-conductor cables used for documented VE.Bus and VE.Can connections. VE.Direct uses a smaller proprietary connector for links such as a BMV-to-GX connection.

Use a pre-manufactured RJ12 UTP cable specified for the Victron monitor.\n        \u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n      \u003cdetails style=\"background:#FFFFFF; border:1px solid #E2E8F0; border-left:5px solid #ED1B4A; border-radius:10px; padding:18px;\"\u003e\n        \u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer; color:#1A202C; font-weight:700; font-size:16px;\"\u003e\n          Can I cut the 5m cable and crimp a new RJ12 end?\n        \u003c\/summary\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"margin:13px 0 0 0;\"\u003e\n          Cutting and re-terminating the cable is not recommended. Victron advises using pre-manufactured RJ12 cables because a poor modular-connector crimp can cause intermittent, difficult-to-diagnose monitor behavior. Choose the closest factory length and manage any small amount of excess cable with a protected service loop.\n        \u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n      \u003cdetails style=\"background:#FFFFFF; border:1px solid #E2E8F0; border-left:5px solid #2E91E5; border-radius:10px; padding:18px;\"\u003e\n        \u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer; color:#1A202C; font-weight:700; font-size:16px;\"\u003e\n          Does this cable connect my BMV monitor to a Cerbo GX?\n        \u003c\/summary\u003e\n        \u003cp style=\"margin:13px 0 0 0;\"\u003e\n          No. The RJ12 cable connects the BMV shunt to the BMV head unit.
