Garmin 8-Pin Power Cable
The Garmin 010-11970-00 is an 8-pin power cable built for compatible GPSMAP® and echoMAP™ marine displays. It delivers power and data connection to the unit while also supporting a lamp or horn for visible or audible alerts. The cable is supplied new and ready for installation on a boat.
Boaters wiring supported Garmin chartplotters
This cable suits owners of GPSMAP or echoMAP devices that accept the 8-pin connector and who want a single cable for power, NMEA 0183 data, and alert signalling. It will not work with units that require a different pin arrangement, a proprietary connector, or a network backbone other than NMEA 0183.
8-pin connector for power and NMEA 0183
The defining specification is the 8-pin interface that carries supply voltage, NMEA 0183 sentences, and the lamp or horn trigger in one harness. Matching this pin count and protocol to the display’s port is the only check needed before purchase.

Questions about this item
What connectors does the 8-pin cable need to reach the GPSMAP or echoMAP unit?
The cable has an 8-pin plug that mates directly with the compatible Garmin chartplotter or fishfinder; the open leads connect to power, NMEA 0183 data and a lamp or horn for alerts.
Which step do installers most often miss when fitting the 010-11970-00?
Wiring the lamp or horn leads to a fused circuit is frequently overlooked, so the audible or visible alert function stays inactive even though power and data work.
What part of the 010-11970-00 will need replacement first on a saltwater boat?
The bare wire ends and crimp terminals corrode fastest; inspect and re-crimp or heat-shrink them each season to keep power and NMEA 0183 signals reliable.
