Ok, referencing my above post. When I add the 898 into the mix, all I need to run to it is an Ethernet cable and power since it will share the ducer/temp from the 998?

Hi. I am considering adding an 1199 to the bow of my boat. I currently have an 898 at the helm with DI/SI and a shoot through hull transducer connected to it. I also have a 788 (not sure exactly what model 788) at the bow. This unit uses the transducer in my fortrex. Both units currently are connected, I believe through Ethernet? What do I need to do (buy as well) to make the 1199 talk to both units? And, how do I hook it all up. Its on a 2012 ZX21 Skeeter if that makes any difference.
I just pulled the bow panel off, the 788 ci HD and the 898 are joined up via Ethernet cable right now. I found a spare Ethernet adapter in my box of goodies. So all I need is the hub right? Maybe a short cable to go from the adapter to the hub?

Do a search online I found several stores that show them in-stock. I searched Humminbird Ethernet Switch part number is AS ETH 5PXG

Just bought near-new (14 hrs) 998 from BBC member. Who's the best on Guntersville to install, set up for me?
Can you pull wires and connect power? Drill a couple holes? Pretty simple to install. Fishfood is over by Pickwick and does installs. PM him.

Thanks.
Doug, Am going to try to take your advice and install myself. Looking at your videos, which thru-hull transducer and Y-cable should I order? Video shows XP-9-20, HB catalog shows XPTH-9-HDSI-180-T for the 998cSI;is the cable still AS-SIDB-Y or AS-14SIDB-Y ? Thanks, Jim
The shoot-thru 2D transducer is the XP 9 20.
The XPTH 9 HDSI 180 T is a replacement for the transom XHS 9 HDSI 180 T IF you want to do a thru-hull installation under the transom extension on your Ranger.
With either of those transducers, you still use the shoot-thru 2D transducer and the AS SIDB Y cable.
Look through the Ranger installation pictures in this topic, it shows both SI transducer types:

Thanks Wayne.
One other question: believe I will remove the old flasher from the dash and mount the RAM on a plate there. Am going to buy the stronger 2.25". Anything you'd caution about mounting there vs on the surface outside the windshield, like so many show?
Jim
Your issue is if you will have room to do that. The RAM takes up space as well as the unit.

I'm installing a 998cSi on my '96 461VS. Do I need the heavy 2.5" D-111U or can I use the lighter 1.5" 111U?
thank you.
Another question...installing a shoot through in the '96 461VS. Can I install at the low point, just in front of the drain in the transom extension (fantail?, not JP), or should I drop down lower at the back of the bilge, where drain plug, livewell intake, etc. are?
