What's included

• One Lumishore MFD Conversion Cable for Garmin (RJ-45 to Garmin Marine Network connector)

Best fit

Required for any Lumishore EOS-LUX or ECLIPSE Command Center installation on a vessel with a Garmin chartplotter on the Lumi-Link compatibility list — this cable is the physical network adapter that makes MFD lighting control possible.

Why choose this cable

• Plug-and-play Garmin integration: converts the Command Center's standard RJ-45 Ethernet port to the Garmin Marine Network connector format — no additional adapters needed.
• Compatible with both ECLIPSE and EOS-LUX Command Centers: a single cable type serves both Lumishore control platforms on Garmin networks.
• Enables Garmin OneHelm: once connected, the Lumishore lighting app appears within the Garmin OneHelm environment for intuitive touchscreen control of all connected lights.
• Required for all Garmin MFD installations: a standard Garmin network cable alone is not sufficient — the Garmin Marine Network connector format requires this specific adapter.
• Authorized dealer support: buy from MyGreenOutdoors with Garmin- and Lumishore-focused product help and fast shipping on qualifying orders.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need this cable if I already have a standard Garmin network cable?
Yes. Garmin uses a proprietary Marine Network connector that is not the same as a standard RJ-45 patch cable. This Lumishore Conversion Cable adapts the Command Center's RJ-45 port to the Garmin Marine Network connector. Both are needed: this cable on the Garmin network side, and a standard network cable between Command Center ports if daisy-chaining additional devices.

Does this cable work with the ECLIPSE Command Center as well as the EOS-LUX Command Center?
Yes. This cable is compatible with both the ECLIPSE Command Center and the EOS-LUX Command Center (60-0366) for Garmin MFD integration.

My Garmin MFD isn't on the list above — will this cable still work?
The Lumi-Link compatibility list is the official supported list. If your Garmin model is not listed, MFD integration is not guaranteed. Contact us for the latest compatibility information as Garmin may add models via firmware updates.

Is a software update required on my Garmin MFD?
Possibly. Garmin recommends updating the MFD software to the latest version before adding Lumishore to the network to ensure full Lumi-Link functionality.

What's the warranty?
Lumishore covers this cable with a 3-year warranty. MyGreenOutdoors is a Garmin and Lumishore authorized dealer and can assist with warranty claims.
