This 5-metre cable is essential for enabling real-time battery monitoring, state-of-charge reporting, and automated charge control within a Victron Energy ecosystem. Without this connection, the battery management system cannot communicate with the inverter\/charger, leading to incomplete system data and potential unexpected shutdowns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for professional installers and system integrators, this cable ensures reliable data exchange over a CAN-bus protocol at 500 kbit\/s. It is specifically engineered for Type A pin-out configurations, making it compatible with a range of popular lithium battery brands including Pylontech US2000C, US3000C, UP5000, Force-L series, BYD B-Box, and Hubble Lithium via CloudLink. The 5-metre length offers flexibility in positioning components within an enclosure or across a battery rack, reducing the need for extension couplers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy a Dedicated BMS Communication Cable Matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGeneric RJ45 cables may physically fit, but they often lack the correct pin-out mapping required for CAN-bus communication. Using an incorrect cable can result in no data transmission, intermittent faults, or even damage to sensitive electronics. The Victron Type A cable is pre-wired to match the specific CAN-H, CAN-L, and ground connections between the VE.Can port on a GX device (such as a Cerbo GX or Color Control GX) and the CAN port on the battery BMS. Each end is clearly labelled \"VE.Can\" and \"Battery BMS\" to prevent installation errors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cable is not a standard Ethernet patch lead; it is a purpose-built CAN-bus communication cable with a defined impedance and twisted-pair construction to maintain signal integrity over the full 5-metre length. This reduces the risk of data corruption in electrically noisy environments typical of off-grid power systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-configured Type A pin-out for Pylontech US2000C\/US3000C\/UP5000\/Force-L, BYD B-Box, and Hubble Lithium via CloudLink\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-metre length provides installation flexibility without signal degradation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClearly labelled RJ45 connectors eliminate guesswork during setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with Victron GX devices featuring VE.Can or BMS-Can ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnables automatic battery detection, SOC reporting, and charge parameter control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwisted-pair construction ensures reliable CAN-bus communication at 500 kbit\/s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Simplicity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConnect the end labelled \"Battery BMS\" to the CAN port on the master battery module. Plug the end labelled \"VE.Can\" into an available VE.Can or dedicated BMS-Can port on your GX device. If using a VE.Can port, configure its profile to \"CAN-bus BMS (500 kbit\/s)\" via the GX device menu. Terminate the second VE.Can port with the included terminator. Once connected, the battery will appear on the GX device display, providing critical data such as voltage, current, temperature, and state of charge. This visibility is vital for system diagnostics and ensuring the battery does not disconnect unexpectedly during firmware updates or configuration changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor larger battery banks, multiple modules can be linked using the manufacturer's supplied RJ-45 cables via their link ports. The master battery then communicates with the GX device through this single Type A cable. Always refer to the battery manufacturer's documentation for parallel configuration limits and any additional hardware requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications at a Glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart Number: ASS030710050\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCable Length: 5 metres\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnector Type: RJ45 (8P8C) both ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePin-out: Type A (CAN-H on pin 7 VE.Can to pin 4 Battery; CAN-L on pin 8 VE.Can to pin 5 Battery; GND on pin 3 VE.Can to pin 6 Battery)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible Battery Models: Pylontech US2000C, US3000C, UP5000, Force-L; BYD B-Box; Hubble Lithium via CloudLink\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eComplete Your Victron Energy System\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnsure your lithium battery bank communicates flawlessly with your Victron GX device.
