Description
xVE.Can to CAN-bus BMS Type A Cable 5 m
The VE.Can to CAN-bus BMS Type A Cable connects a Victron GX device or VE.Can-equipped product to a compatible CAN-bus BMS battery system. At 5 metres in length, it gives installers practical routing flexibility in battery enclosures, van conversions, and off-grid cabinet builds where the GX device and BMS are not in close proximity.
Key Features
- 5 m cable length provides flexibility for installations where the GX device and BMS are mounted apart.
- Connects VE.Can port on Victron GX devices to CAN-bus BMS Type A compatible battery systems.
- Plug-and-play wiring with correctly pinned connectors for Type A CAN-bus BMS communication.
- Lightweight at 0.22 kg, suitable for space-constrained installations.
- Victron OEM cable (SKU: ASS030710150) designed to ensure correct pin mapping and signal integrity.
Product Overview
CAN-bus communication between a GX device and a battery BMS allows the system to exchange real-time data including state of charge, cell voltages, charge and discharge limits, and alarm states. Using the correct cable type matters: Type A CAN-bus BMS wiring uses a specific pin assignment that differs from Type B. Using the wrong cable will result in no communication or incorrect data. This Victron-supplied cable removes that ambiguity.
The 5 m length is the longer of the standard options Victron offers for this connection, making it suited to larger enclosures, separate battery and inverter cabinets, or installations where cable routing adds distance. The cable terminates in the appropriate connectors for direct connection without adapters or field wiring.

Installation Notes
Verify that your BMS uses CAN-bus Type A pin assignment before ordering. Type A and Type B cables are not interchangeable. This cable should be connected with the system powered down. For installations involving lithium battery systems, grid-tied inverters, or high-voltage DC equipment, connection and commissioning should be carried out by a qualified installer familiar with Victron system configuration.
