Product Details
Product Details
The Victron VE.Direct Cable 10 m (SKU ASS030530310) provides a reliable 10‑metre data communication link between Victron devices that support the VE.Direct protocol. It is particularly useful for connecting battery monitors, charge controllers, or GX units when devices are spaced apart, allowing clean, flexible system layout.
Both ends of the cable use the same VE.Direct connector, which simplifies installation by eliminating concerns about connector orientation. This uniform connector design also helps avoid confusion and reduces the risk of mismatches. The cable is manufactured to Victron’s strict quality standards, ensuring data integrity even across longer runs.
Typical applications include linking BMV battery monitors, SmartSolar or BlueSolar MPPT controllers, or GX monitoring devices via their VE.Direct ports. The 10 m length allows system designers and installers to place devices in optimal positions without being constrained by proximity.
The cable is designed to operate in battery-backed systems with a voltage range of approximately 6.5 V to 95 V DC, making it suitable for many common off-grid and hybrid installations. It supports Victron’s communication protocols reliably over this distance, and is built to withstand standard installation environments without special protection.
Weighing around 0.34 kg, this cable is both lightweight for easier handling and solid enough to maintain signal stability. It also comes with a 5‑year warranty, offering trade customers peace of mind when specifying it into critical energy systems.
For system integrators and installers, this cable supports robust remote monitoring and control strategies. By using this 10 m VE.Direct link, you can separate your charge controller or battery monitor physically from your GX controller or display, resulting in cleaner installations and more flexible wiring routes.

Technical Specifications
- SKU / Part Number: ASS030530310
- Cable Length: 10.0 meters (1000 cm)
- Connector Style: Straight to straight (both ends feature straight connectors, not right-angle)
- Primary Purpose: Digital data and system communications (carries data, not operating power)
- Official Product Family: Victron VE.Direct Cable Family
- Warranty: Backed by Victron Energy’s standard 5-year warranty
Typical Applications & Compatibility Designed to connect compatible VE.Direct-equipped Victron devices to a GX communication center (such as the Cerbo GX, Ekrano GX, or Color Control GX) to expose performance data to the system. Supported hardware includes:
- SmartSolar and BlueSolar MPPT solar charge controllers
- BMV-700 Series Battery Monitors and SmartShunt
- VE.Direct-compatible Phoenix Inverters
- Peak Power Pack Batteries
- Orion XS DC-DC Battery Chargers
Supported Data Transmission (by Connected Device) The exact telemetry and configuration data transmitted depends entirely on the specific hardware being connected:
- From an MPPT Solar Charger: PV voltage, PV current, PV power, battery voltage, charging current, charging state, accumulated solar yield, charger status, historical/operational logs, and configuration settings.
- From a BMV / SmartShunt Battery Monitor: Battery voltage, current, state of charge, consumed Amp-hours, remaining runtime, instantaneous power, historical data, and active alarm/status notifications.
- From a VE.Direct Inverter: DC voltage, DC current, output power, inverter state, active alarms, and basic operating information.
Important Installation & Compatibility Notes
- Straight vs. Right-Angle: This is the straight-connector version. If your installation is in a cramped cabinet or space is highly restricted, you may require the right-angle version (part number ASS030531310) to prevent the cable from sticking straight out from the device port.
- Not a Generic Cable: VE.Direct is a proprietary digital communications interface. Although the plugs look similar to standard modular telephone or network cables, they are not electrically compatible; standard network or telephone cables must not be used.
- No Integrated Bluetooth: This is a passive digital cable. It does not add Bluetooth capabilities. To add Bluetooth to compatible older VE.Direct products, you will need the VE.Direct Smart Dongle.
- Device-to-Device Constraints: Having a VE.Direct port on two devices does not guarantee direct communication between them (for example, connecting an MPPT directly to an inverter with this cable will not allow the devices to exchange system information).
- Computer Connectivity: To connect a VE.Direct device directly to a PC or laptop for configuration, you must use a dedicated VE.Direct-to-USB Interface (ASS030530010) or VE.Direct-to-USB-C Interface (ASS030530030) rather than this cable.
Quality & Standards
- Manufacturing Quality: Produced in ISO 9001 certified manufacturing facilities
