Using Trolling Motor Ethernet Connection

Ethernet networking refers to the ability of an Ethernet-compatible Humminbird Fish Finder to connect and share information with compatible Minn Kota Trolling Motors with Advanced GPS Navigation or i-Pilot Link-Bluetooth.

Creating an Ethernet network with compatible Humminbird Fish Finder(s) and a Minn Kota trolling motor featuring Advanced GPS Navigation or i-Pilot Link, makes it easy to access the information and boat control features you want from anywhere in the boat. With an Ethernet-networked boat, anglers can enjoy a more efficient, and convenient fishing experience.

NOTE: Built-In Sonar/Transducer Trolling Motor connections are not required to use an Ethernet connection from Minn Kota Trolling motor to a Networking Capable Humminbird Fish Finder.
