- 6-pin connector matches Icom radio power sockets perfectly
- Heavy-gauge wire minimises voltage drop during high-current transmit
- Compatible with IC-706, IC-718, IC-746 and IC-756 models
- Reinforced strain relief resists wear from repeated plugging and vibration
- Insulated jacket withstands abrasion and temperature swings in shack or vehicle
Icom 6-pin DC power cable
This heavy-duty 6-pin DC power cable is built for Icom IC-706, IC-718, IC-746 and IC-756 shortwave transceivers. Thick-gauge conductors minimise voltage drop during high-current transmit cycles. The moulded plug seats tightly to resist vibration in mobile installations. Reinforced strain relief withstands repeated connection cycles.
Sustained high-current delivery
Heavy-gauge wire keeps voltage stable when the radio keys down at full power for long periods. Insulated jacket tolerates temperature swings inside a vehicle or shack without degrading. Strain-relief joint prevents conductor fatigue from cable movement during extended mobile sessions. Polarity must be verified before each permanent installation.
6-pin Icom interface limits
The dedicated 6-pin connector fits only the listed Icom models; other radios need a different plug. Cable carries DC power only and does not pass audio, data or control signals. No inline fuse or voltage regulation is included, so the supply must provide correct voltage and protection. Length is fixed and cannot be extended without adding resistance.

Questions about this item
Will the heavy-gauge wire and strain relief handle continuous high-current transmit cycles without overheating?
The thick-gauge conductors minimise voltage drop during high-power transmission, and the reinforced strain relief is built to withstand repeated plugging and vibration in mobile use.
What power source must I already have to use this cable with my IC-706?
You need a regulated DC supply or a vehicle power system that matches the radio’s voltage and polarity requirements.
Does the 6-pin plug fit the IC-756 without any adapter or pin rearrangement?
Yes, the moulded 6-pin connector is made to match the Icom power socket on the IC-706, IC-718, IC-746 and IC-756 series directly.
