Kenwood CA-EX7MR 7m Marine Remote Extension Cable

The Kenwood CA-EX7MR is a 7-meter extension cable designed for compatible Kenwood wired marine remote-control installations. It adds distance between the remote control and the compatible marine receiver, helping accommodate larger or more complex boat layouts. This is a system-expansion accessory rather than an audio source, amplifier, speaker, or receiver.

It is intended for boat owners who need to place a compatible wired remote away from the stereo’s mounting location. The cable can help route remote control access toward a helm, lounge area, swim platform, or another practical operating position. Its approximately 23-foot length provides substantially more reach than a short attached remote lead.

The CA-EX7MR carries remote-control connectivity; it does not add power, change speaker output, or process the sound of the audio system. Audio character and playback performance remain determined by the connected Kenwood receiver and the rest of the system. Its role is to preserve practical remote operation across a longer cable run.

A proprietary 8-pin connection arrangement is used, with a male connector at one end and a female connector at the other. This configuration places the extension inline between the compatible marine receiver and the attached cable from a compatible wired remote. The purpose-built connection avoids the need to splice the remote cable for an extended installation.

Use the CA-EX7MR as part of a compatible Kenwood marine audio setup when the remote’s existing cable does not reach the desired location. Verify receiver and remote compatibility before purchase, particularly when combining older KCA-RC107MR equipment with other Kenwood marine components. It is a straightforward upgrade path for extending wired remote access without replacing the main receiver.

Key Features

• 7-Meter Length: Adds approximately 23 feet of remote-cable reach.
• Marine Remote Extension: Designed for Kenwood wired marine remote installations.
• 8-Pin Male End: Connects to a compatible Kenwood receiver.
• 8-Pin Female End: Accepts the compatible remote’s attached cable.
• Inline Connection: Extends the remote cable without splicing.
• System Accessory: Supports remote placement away from the stereo.

Design & Installation

The CA-EX7MR uses a black cable assembly with proprietary 8-pin male and female end connections. Its design is focused on creating an inline extension for Kenwood marine remote-control wiring. The cable is a dedicated accessory and is not a universal audio, RCA, antenna, USB, or speaker-wire extension.

Install the cable between a compatible Kenwood marine receiver and the attached lead from the compatible wired remote, with the male end connected at the receiver side and the female end joined to the remote cable. Plan the route before installation so the 7-meter length reaches the desired control location without strain on either connector. Confirm the remote and receiver model compatibility before routing or securing the cable.
