Raymarine E85001 Interface Box: Dimensions?

[nigelmercier]

Does anyone have a Raymarine E85001 PC/SeaTalk/NMEA Interface Box handy, and can measure the dimensions for me? I want to tidy up my SeaTalk & NMEA connections by the chart table, and ideally want to fit all of it into a box.

13x10x5 roughly.

You're not interested in buying one are you?

Have one for sale in the classifieds.

Thanks, Ben

Thanks, but the depth is more critical than "roughly". Nearest mm would be fine.

 

[sailorbenji]

50-51mm

Many thanks.

I've been thinking about this, I'm sure there is no need for the box to be so deep so I'm considering removing the PCB from the case. There are plenty of images of the top of the PCB available, but not the bottom. Has anyone had a look at the underside?

I think that the space 'above' the board was to provide all the room needed for the waterproof grommets (3 on each side). It can get a bit crowded when all 6 connections are being used!

Plus the connectors of course. However, it looks like there may be some bulky components on the underside:

If the PCB will fit in a 25mm deep box, then I have far more choice.
