Use 6-pin remote control extension cable already fitted to connect a Clarion, Kicker or JL Audio 5-pin digital receiver to matching 5-pin remote control.
Have you already or have plans to install the newest Clarion, Kicker or JL Audio 5-pin threaded digital marine receiver (e.g.CMM-30, MM55 etc.) and also install a matching 5-pin threaded wired remote control (e.g. CMR-30, KRC55, MMR-20 etc.) to the swim platform, transom etc.; if so, the CMRR-C5 installation kit is for you!!! Connecting these wired remote controls to these new 5-pin digital radios requires routing/installing a new 5-pin extension cable (e.g. CMC-RC-25, MMC-25, KRCEXT25 etc.) which could be daunting, expensive and (in most instances); virtually impossible! but if replacing an older Clarion system, then your boat should have a 6-pin extension cable already fitted; which means connecting a 5-pin threaded remote (on swim platform, transom etc.) to matching 5-pin digital receiver (in cockpit, helm etc.) becomes a "breeze" thanks to the CMRR-C5 conversion cable kit. One cable connects between the 5-pin digital receiver (e.g. CMM-30, KMC5 etc.) and the 6-pin extension cable (cockpit, helm etc.) and the other cable connects the matching 5-pin remote control (e.g. CMR-30, MMR-20 etc.) to the other end of the extension cable thus eliminating the need to install yet another extension cable (e.g. CMC-RC-25, MMC-25 etc.). Please take a minute to review the install diagram prior to ordering.
Note: If the vessel is wired for multiple remotes (up to 3); you may purchase one CMRR-C2 cable per each additional 5-pin remote.
» Connect Clarion 2020-Up 5-pin threaded digital remote controls (e.g. CMR-10, CMR-30 etc.) to Clarion digital media receivers (e.g. CMM-30 etc.) in any boat with a 6-pin extension cable already fitted.
» Connect Kicker digital remote controls: (e.g. KRC55 etc.) to Kicker digital media receivers (e.g. KMC6 etc.) in any boat with a 6-pin extension cable already fitted.

» Includes matching 5-pin non-NMEA 2000® (male/female) connector/plug (fits 5-pin remote control /digital media receiver)
» includes matching 6-pin plug/connector. Fits 6-pin "extension cable" (M101RC) or 6-pin splitter cable (M101RYC) already fitted.
» To install these new 5-pin threaded receivers/remotes; the boat owner is required to run/install a new extension cable (e.g. CMC-RC-25, MMC-25, KRCEXT25 CMC-RC-25, MMC-6 etc.).
» The CMRR-C5 is a two part kit and each cable is approximately 6 inches long.
» Not applicable to JL Audio MMR-40 NMEA 2000 with Micro-C connector
» Not applicable to connecting Clarion 6 or 8-pin radios/remotes to Clarion 5-pin digital radios/remotes (these are not interchangeable)
1. This kit applies only if a 6-pin extension cable (e.g. M101RXC-RET, MW-RXC-RET etc.) is already fitted.
2. Use when installing Clarion 3rd Gen. 5-pin remote control to matching receiver in any vessel with a 6-pin extension cable (e.g. M101RXC-RET, MW-RXC-RET etc.) already fitted.
3. Use when Installing JL Audio 5-pin threaded remote control to matching receiver in any vessel with a 6-pin extension cable (e.g. M101RXC-RET, MW-RXC-RET etc.) already fitted.
4. Use when installing Kicker 5-pin threaded remote control to matching receiver in any vessel with a 6-pin extension cable (e.g. M101RXC-RET, MW-RXC-RET etc.) already fitted.
5. Not applicable to Clarion 8-pin radios or 6-pin remotes. Both units (remote & radio) must have 5-pin screw-on type connection and boat must have a remote control extension cable
INSTALLATION (Only applicable if the boat has a 6-pin extension cable already fitted)
1. Locate 6-pin extension cable behind radio cavity.
2. Locate the 5-pin screw-on remote cable on the digital receiver
3. Align and screw-on the CMRR-C5 5-Pin male plug to the 5-pin radio remote cable connector.
4. Connect the CMRR-C5 6-pin connector to the 6-pin plug on the extension cable.
5. Go to the remote location and locate the other end of the 6-pin extension cable
6. Connect CMRR-C5 6-pin male plug to the 6-pin connector on the extension cable
7. Align and screw-on the CMRR-C5 5-pin connector to the 5-pin remote control (e.g. CMR-10) plug.
8. Install the 5-pin remote control as per the included instructions.
See INSTALL DIAGRAM prior to ordering.
