Replacing GP-320B with Scx 20

[sdonx]

With all the excitement over the SCX im looking into adding on.
I have a MFDBB and a Tzt16. Running a NEMA2000 between them now.
Question is can i use the wire from the GP for the SCX?
I’m done fishing wires this year.

It would take some custom splicing because the GP connection at the antenna is not Device Net and will not fit the SCX20 directly.

Thanks for your previous answer. I just sent a follow up question on this subject to tech support. It seems there are non proprietary connector options available. I cannot pull the GP320B cable out to make room for the scx20 cable. Is the scx20 cable a standard 5pin nmea cable that is permanently afixed to the sensor without a plug connector to the unit? And is the distal end of the cable a 5 pin connector? Is it possible to splice both ends of the GP320B cable to attach to the scx20 at the proximal end and then splice the distal end with another similar NMEA 2000 adaptor plug? Thank you….
