In this review of the 720073-3 20 Feet Ethernet Cable AS EC 20E from Bzumperyz, the bottom line is simple: this is a practical replacement cable for anglers and boaters who need a dependable Ethernet link between Humminbird units. The cable is designed to connect two Ethernet-capable devices or to tie a Humminbird control head into an accessory 5-port Ethernet switch, and it delivers stable data transfer with a moisture-resistant jacket. For anyone building a multi-unit network on a boat, the single biggest reason to buy is dependable, corrosion-resistant cabling that matches Humminbird models without fuss.
Key Features
- Compatibility: Works with HELIX 15/12/10/9/8/7 (G2N, G3N, G4N) and a broad range of 11xxci, 9xxci, 8xxci and 7xxci HD units, plus APEX, SOLIX and ONIX models, so it fits common Humminbird setups.
- Length: The 20 ft cable gives flexibility for routing between transducers, control heads and switches aboard a boat without tight bends.
- Use case: Designed specifically to connect two Ethernet-capable units or to join a control head to an AS ETH 5PXG 5-port switch as part of a larger network.
- Durability: Finished with moisture- and solvent-resistant material to resist water and corrosion and extend service life in marine environments.
- Extension option: Can be extended using the compatible AS ECX 30E cable when longer runs are required for larger installations.
- Support: Backed by a 30-day full refund policy and a 12-month warranty to provide buyer confidence.
Who It's For
This cable is aimed at boaters and anglers who use Humminbird multi-unit networks and need a straightforward replacement or additional run for their sonar and navigation electronics. It suits users who prefer OEM-style connectivity and who value corrosion-resistant materials for marine use.
It is not aimed at someone needing ultra-high-speed commercial networking beyond the intended marine electronics use, nor for users who require custom-terminated or nonstandard connector types; those buyers should seek a specialized data-cabling solution.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Good functionality as a purpose-built link between Humminbird units for reliable data sharing.
- High-quality construction with moisture and solvent resistance enhances longevity in saltwater environments.
- Generous 20 ft length covers typical routing needs and can be extended with the AS ECX 30E.
- Value-oriented price point noted by customers who report strong performance for the cost.
Cons
- Limited to devices compatible with Humminbird Ethernet standards, so it is not a universal enterprise Ethernet cable.
- Source does not specify exact bandwidth or wire gauge, so advanced network diagnostics are not documented here.
