This cable connects a PC (standard RS232 serial port)to a Garmin eTrex, eMap, and geko for data transfer. You can upload and download data to your GPS including system updates, waypoints, tracks, routes, NMEA data, etc.
  • Features ePlug , a custom 9-pin D connector, and very flexible cable.
  • You can also supply power via pin 8! Optionally connect a P3M6F power inserting cable to supply both power and data to your Garmin. The two cables together we call The eMax! It's a combo power data cable team.
  • Molded on ferrite bead to address EMI radio interference.
  • 4 conductor cable with all 4 wires connected to all 4 ePlug pins with power connected to pin #8
ePlug -------color-------DB9F

(1) <------ Red --------<(8) optional 3V power to Garmin (not from PC)
(2) <------ White ------<(3) Tx data to Garmin from PC
(3) >------ Brown ------>(2) Rx data from Garmin to PC
(4) ------- Black ------ (5) Ground reference for above signals

Note: A standard PC RS232 serial port does not have enough current available to power a GPS. The signal lines have 1/100th the power needed. The USB bus has 5V with enough power though it's very non-standard to use it in this way -- it works. See our USB-G4 adapter. Also we make "power inserting" products that supply power via pin 8.

List Price: $14.98 (In the USA)
