The \u003cstrong\u003eVictron M8 Circular Connector Male\/Female 3 Pole Cable Pair\u003c\/strong\u003e provides a purpose-built solution to extend BMS communication cables, ensuring uninterrupted data transfer across your installation. Supplied as a bag of two cables, this pair allows you to bridge longer distances between battery modules or between the battery bank and a Smart BMS or NG BMS without compromising signal quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEngineered for Demanding Off-Grid and Mobile Installations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you're installing a \u003cstrong\u003ecaravan solar system\u003c\/strong\u003e, a \u003cstrong\u003emarine battery bank\u003c\/strong\u003e, or a remote off-grid power setup, physical space and cable management can be challenging. This cable pair, available in a 2m length, offers the flexibility to position components optimally while maintaining a clean, professional layout. The durable black insulation and moulded connector bodies provide excellent resistance to oil, UV exposure, and moisture, making them suitable for engine rooms, exterior compartments, and harsh Australian conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecure M8 circular connectors\u003c\/strong\u003e with screw-locking for vibration-proof connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3-pole configuration\u003c\/strong\u003e matched to Victron BMS communication requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMale-to-female extension design\u003c\/strong\u003e for simple plug-and-play installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBag of two cables\u003c\/strong\u003e provides a spare or enables dual extensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlexible, durable jacket\u003c\/strong\u003e rated for the temperature ranges found in battery compartments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy BMS Communication Reliability Matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a Victron lithium battery system, the BMS continuously monitors cell voltages, temperatures, and state of charge. Any interruption or corruption of this data can trigger unnecessary protection modes, reduce charging efficiency, or, in extreme cases, lead to cell imbalance. By using cables designed and tested for this specific application, you minimise the risk of intermittent connections that can be difficult to diagnose. The gold-plated contacts inside each M8 connector maintain low contact resistance over thousands of mating cycles, preserving signal integrity for the long term.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSimple Integration with Victron Smart and NG Battery Systems\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese cables are compatible with \u003cstrong\u003eVictron Lithium Smart batteries\u003c\/strong\u003e when used with a Smart BMS, and with \u003cstrong\u003eVictron Lithium NG batteries\u003c\/strong\u003e when used with an NG BMS. Installation is straightforward: connect the male end of the extension cable to the existing communication port, and the female end to the next battery or BMS unit. No special tools or crimping are required, reducing setup time and the potential for wiring errors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor larger battery banks where multiple modules are spaced apart, using these extension cables helps maintain a tidy installation without straining the original wiring harnesses. The 2m length is ideal for bridging gaps between batteries or between the battery bank and BMS, giving you the reach needed without excessive slack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBuilt to Last in Australian Conditions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the corrosive salt air of coastal marine installations to the vibration and dust of outback tracks, these cables are built to endure. The overmoulded connector bodies seal out moisture and contaminants, while the flexible cable jacket resists cracking even after repeated flexing. This durability translates to fewer maintenance visits and greater confidence in your system's uptime.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eComplete Your Victron Energy System with Confidence\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen extending the communication backbone of your Victron lithium battery system, trust components that are engineered to work together seamlessly. \u003cstrong\u003eOrder the Victron M8 Circular Connector Male\/Female 3 Pole Cable Pair today\u003c\/strong\u003e and ensure your BMS has the reliable connection it needs to protect your investment and maximise performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"product-specifications\" style=\"width:100%; border-collapse:collapse; border:1px solid #d9d9d9; table-layout:auto;\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border:1px solid #d9d9d9; padding:8px; text-align:left; width:35%; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eVictron Article Number\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #d9d9d9; padding:8px; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eASS030560200\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border:1px solid #d9d9d9; padding:8px; text-align:left; width:35%; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eCategory\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #d9d9d9; padding:8px; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eCables with M8 Circular Connector (For Li-ion Batteries)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border:1px solid #d9d9d9; padding:8px; text-align:left; width:35%; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eConnector Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #d9d9d9; padding:8px; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eM8 Circular Connector\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border:1px solid #d9d9d9; padding:8px; text-align:left; width:35%; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eConnector Configuration\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #d9d9d9; padding:8px; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eMale\/Female 3 Pole\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border:1px solid #d9d9d9; padding:8px; text-align:left; width:35%; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eCable Length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #d9d9d9; padding:8px; vertical-align:top;\"\u003e2 m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border:1px solid #d9d9d9; padding:8px; text-align:left; width:35%; vertical-align:top;\"\u003ePackaging\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #d9d9d9; padding:8px; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eBag of 2 Pieces\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border:1px solid #d9d9d9; padding:8px; text-align:left; width:35%; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eApplication\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #d9d9d9; padding:8px; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eExtend the BMS Communication Cables\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border:1px solid #d9d9d9; padding:8px; text-align:left; width:35%; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #d9d9d9; padding:8px; vertical-align:top;\"\u003eLithium Smart Batteries in Combination with a Smart BMS; Lithium NG Batteries in Combination with a NG BMS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Victron","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52364373033243,"sku":"VIC-ASS030560200","price":55.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0854\/3354\/9083\/files\/VIC-ASS030560200-01.jpg?v=1781657452","url":"https:\/\/www.nbcampingequipment.com.au\/products\/victron-m8-circular-connector-male-female-3-pole-c","provider":"NB Camping Equipment","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
