Cradlepoint 170864-000 GPIO and Power Cable, 2x2 Molex to Bare Wire, 3 m, 20 AWG

The Cradlepoint 170864-000 is the manufacturer's GPIO and power cable for hardwired installations. One end has a 2x2 Molex connector that plugs into the device. The other end is bare (direct) wire, ready to terminate into a vehicle harness, fuse block, terminal strip or control circuit. The black cable is 3 meters (9.84 ft) long with 20 AWG wire. That leaves room to route it from a router mounted under a seat, in a trunk or inside an enclosure to its power source.

Cradlepoint lists the cable as compatible with the R1900, R980, R920, S700, S400 and RC1250. It also appears as the 2x2, 3-meter, 20 AWG GPIO cable in the Ericsson Cradlepoint R1900 and R2100 data sheets. Cradlepoint lists the part for North America, Latin America, Europe, Africa and the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.

For fleet, public-safety and industrial deployments, a direct-wire cable is the standard way to give a router permanent power and access to its GPIO lines, without relying on a plug-in adapter. Using the genuine Cradlepoint cable keeps the connector matched to the device and your installs consistent with the manufacturer's accessory list. The 170864-000 ships as the cable only, and Cradlepoint lists the part as active.
