These Mix and Match base models must be combined with a Mix and Match cable for installation. The suffix '-MM' in the Gemeco part number designates a Mix and Match base model.
This transducer uses the Mix and Match system. Installation requires two parts - a base model plus one of the Mix and Match 600W cables (MM) listed below.
Each base model has a 2 meter pigtail cable permanently attached. This cable ends in an Airmar 5-pin female connector. The Mix and Match cables
are 9 meters long and have a male Airmar 5-pin connector at one end (to connect to the transducer pigtail) and a brand-specific connector at the other end
(to connect to the sounder or fishfinder). If an owner changes their fishfinder or sounder, a different MM cable can be installed without disturbing the transducer itself.
Gemeco sells kits containing a base model and a Mix and Match cable. For example, the P79-8G kit contains a base transducer and an MM-8G cable.
