The Victron VE.Direct Cable 1.8m (ASS030530218) is the essential data link between your Victron Energy devices and your monitoring or control system, delivering reliable serial communication over a 4-pin proprietary connector. Spanning a practical 1.8 metres, this cable carries the full VE.Direct protocol — transmitting real-time voltage, current, state-of-charge, and fault data between compatible Victron products including MPPT solar charge controllers, BMV battery monitors, Phoenix inverters, and SmartSolar units. The cable uses a compact, keyed RJ12-style connector at each end, ensuring a secure, interference-free connection that holds firm even on corrugated outback tracks and rough off-road terrain.
Designed for Australian caravanners, RV travellers, and 4WD adventurers who rely on Victron's ecosystem to manage their off-grid power, this cable is the backbone of any van or camper monitoring setup. Connect your MPPT controller to a Color Control GX, a Raspberry Pi running Venus OS, or the VE.Direct to USB interface to read live data in VictronConnect on your phone or tablet. Whether you're fine-tuning your solar harvest on a remote station run, monitoring battery state of charge from the comfort of your camp chair, or integrating your Victron system with a GX device in a full-time touring rig, the 1.8m length gives you the reach to route the cable cleanly through cabinetry and around battery boxes without strain on the connectors.
