Which Victron devices work with this interface cable?
It works with any Victron hardware featuring a VE.Direct port, including SmartSolar & BlueSolar MPPT Chargers, BMV-700/702/712 Battery Monitors, SmartShunt units, and Phoenix Inverters with VE.Direct ports.
Can I use this cable to connect to an Android phone or tablet?
Yes. By using a standard USB OTG (On-The-Go) adapter suitable for your Android device, you can connect this cable directly to access the VictronConnect app.
Why use this instead of a standard VE.Direct cable?
