Plug and Play harness system
Jump to the Analog/Digital Harness system
CAN bus Harness
The plug and play CAN bus harness system lets you easily connect CAN bus devices to your RaceCapture or PodiumConnect system, without the need to splice, crimp, or heat-shrink connections. Multiple-length extension cables lets you build a harness that perfectly matches your installation needs.
- Note The inline CAN terminator only needs to be added once, near the last device connected to the end of the network

Analog harness
The plug and play Analog/Digital harness system lets you easily connect individual sensors to your RaceCapture system, without the need to splice, crimp, or heat shrink connections. Multiple-length extension cables for each level lets you build a harness that perfectly matches your installation needs.
- Note: The same 8 channel connector (and downstream connectors) can plug into an M12-12P analog port or the M12-12P digital port of the system.

CAN bus harness components
Dual CAN splitter
M8-6P male to dual M8-4P female splits CAN1/CAN2 into individual CAN1 and CAN2 connections.
Limited power (1A @ 12v) is provided to devices connected to CAN1 and CAN2. For higher power requirements, please use the Powered Dual CAN Hub
- A connection: connects to CAN1
- B connection: connects to CAN2
Dual CAN interconnect
M8-6P male to M8-6P male link cable for connecting two CAN bus networks to our Powered Dual CAN Hub. 1 meter length.
Powered dual CAN hub
Powered CAN hub featuring 8 ports (4 ports for CAN1 and 4 ports for CAN2). Use with the Dual CAN interconnect cable to link to your RaceCapture or PodiumConnect system.
CAN extension
M8-4P male to M8-4P female cable extends a CAN bus network. Available in 0.5, 1, 2, 3, and 4 meter lengths.
- Power rated at 1A (12watts at 12v)
CAN splitter
M8-4P male to dual M8-4P splits a single CAN bus so a device can be inserted in the middle of a CAN bus network.
- Note: stub length to devices should be about 300mm maximum, including length of Y adapter branch.
The Y adapter includes a 15cm feed connection with a M8 4P male connector, with two 10cm connections with M8 4P female connectors on each end, wired in parallel.
Inline CAN terminator
M8-4P male to M8-4P female inline 120 ohm CAN terminator - place one near end of the CAN bus network to ensure signal integrity.
- Note: Only one terminator should be used at the end of the network/cable-run.
