Using a Garmin Transducer Y-Cable

12-Pin Transducer Y-Cable Part Number 010-12225-00/10

Y-cable for splitting out left and right SideVü™ sonar from two SideVü™ transducers to avoid engine lower unit or keel shadowing.

This Y-Cable works great with all 12-pin GT transducers – transom mount or thru-hull. Pair up to two GT3x's, 4x's, or 5x's. The Y-Cable divides the signals out. 

• From the right-side transducer, it uses the traditional disc, Clearvü™ technology, Right-SideVü, temperature sensor and Garmin ID

• From the left-side transducer, it uses only the Left-SideVü

• The -00 cable is rather long, ~30’, so keep that in mind when routing cables

• The new -10 version is only 2m long and more suited for transom mount mount transducers

• Both cables have “PORT” and “STARBOARD” stickers on the ends to make it easy to connect up for each side

• No software setup required

It is possible to use a mix of transducers, but, only certain combinations will work as described. 

Examples:

• GT30 on starboard (right) side with GT30 on port (left) side

• GT34 on starboard side with GT34 on port side

• GT36 on starboard (right) side with GT36 on port (left) side

• GT40 on starboard side with GT 30, GT40, or GT50 on port side. All use the same SideVü elements

• GT50 on starboard side with GT 30, GT40, or GT50 on port side. all use the same SideVü elements

• GT51 on starboard side with GT41 or GT51 on port side. Both use the same SideVü elements

• GT52 on starboard side with GT52 on port side

• GT54 on starboard side with GT54 on port side

• GT56 on starboard (right) side with GT56 or GT36 on port (left) side. Both use the same SideVü elements

12-Pin Transducer + 8-Pin Transducer to 12-Pin Sounder Part Number 010-12445-33

Y-cable to connect an 8-pin 2-D-only transducer along with a 12-pin SideVü / Clearvü -only transducer into a single 12-pin (orange) port on a Garmin SideVü equipped sonar.

• This cable only works with specific SideVü / Clearvü transducers. There are currently only three of those; the GT30, GT34, and the GT36UHD 

• This cable also only works with specific 2-D transducers. There are currently only 7 of those; GT8HW-IH, GT15M-IH, G12M-THF, GT15M-THF, Airmar P72, Airmar B60,  And Airmar P79

• Software setup is automatic with the GT8 and GT15. The Airmar transducers require a manual transducer selection

NOTE: This Y-Cable will not work with any GT or CV all-in-one transducer like GT40, GT41, GT50M, GT51M, GT52HW, GT54HW and GT56UHD. 

NOTE: When using the 12-Pin + 8-Pin to 12-Pin sounder cable, user must manually select the transducer type they intend to use.
