VE.Can to CAN-bus BMS Type B Cable 1.8 m

The VE.Can to CAN-bus BMS Type B Cable connects a Victron VE.Can port to a compatible CAN-bus BMS using the Type B pinout. It is designed for installers integrating third-party battery management systems with Victron equipment where a Type B CAN-bus interface is required.

Key Features

• 1.8 m cable length, providing practical reach for panel and cabinet installations.
• Type B CAN-bus pinout, compatible with BMS units that use this interface standard.
• Connects directly from a Victron VE.Can port to a CAN-bus BMS without additional adapters.
• Lightweight at 75 g, adding minimal weight to an installation.
• Victron part number ASS030720118, ensuring correct identification when ordering for specific system builds.

Product Overview

Victron Energy produces two CAN-bus BMS cable types to accommodate different BMS manufacturers. Type A and Type B differ in their RJ45 pinout assignments. Using the wrong cable type will prevent communication between the BMS and the Victron system, so confirming the BMS manufacturer's required pinout before ordering is essential. This cable covers the Type B variant.

The cable terminates in RJ45 connectors and carries the CAN-bus communication signals between the VE.Can interface on Victron devices (such as the MultiPlus-II, Quattro, or compatible GX devices) and the battery BMS. Correct BMS communication allows the inverter/charger to receive charge and discharge limits, state of charge data, and protection signals directly from the battery.

Installation Notes

Confirm that your BMS uses the Type B CAN-bus pinout before fitting this cable. Connecting a Type B cable to a Type A BMS will not establish communication and may cause system faults. This cable should be installed as part of a complete Victron system configured by a qualified installer familiar with Victron VE.Can network requirements and the specific BMS being integrated.
