Victron VE.Direct Cable 0.9m Right Angle - ASS030531209
Genuine Victron space-saving data cable
Victron VE.Direct Cable 0.9m (3ft) | Right Angle (ASS030531209)
The low-profile solution for clean VE.Direct connections behind shallow panels and inside compact RV, marine, and off-grid electrical compartments.
The Victron VE.Direct cable 0.9m right angle is a genuine Victron Energy data cable for installers who need dependable communication without forcing a straight connector into a tight space. Part ASS030531209 combines a 0.9-meter cable with one 90-degree VE.Direct connector and one straight connector, helping protect device ports and keep SmartShunt, BMV, MPPT, and compatible GX wiring neat.
Built for clean Victron installations
The Perfect Solution for Tight Clearances
Reduce bend stress when a straight cable would project too far from the device.
RV walls, marine consoles, battery cabinets, and compact electrical boards rarely provide generous connector clearance. A standard straight cable can be forced into a sharp bend when a panel closes, placing unnecessary stress on the cable and the VE.Direct port. The right-angle end of this cable turns the wire immediately along the device surface for a lower-profile installation.
Space-Saving 90-Degree Connector
One end uses Victron’s right-angle VE.Direct connector to minimize required depth behind a panel or inside a shallow cabinet. Use it at the device with the tightest clearance and route the cable along a protected surface.
Protects Delicate Data Ports
Reducing sharp cable bends can lower mechanical stress on both the molded connector and the VE.Direct port. Add strain relief and test-fit the connector orientation before permanently mounting the device or closing the panel.
Flawless System Networking in a Short 0.9m Run
Approximately 2.95 feet of factory-made VE.Direct cabling for components mounted close together.
The 0.9-meter length is ideal for a SmartShunt, BMV monitor, MPPT controller, supported charger, or VE.Direct inverter located on the same electrical board as a Cerbo GX or another compatible GX device. It provides useful routing flexibility without leaving large coils of excess cable inside the compartment.
Compatible VE.Direct applications
Confirm a VE.Direct port on both devices before ordering.
- ✓ Shallow-wall or recessed GX-device installations where a straight plug would require excessive rear clearance.
- ✓ SmartShunt or BMV battery-monitor links to a nearby Cerbo GX or other compatible GX device.
- ✓ Compatible BlueSolar and SmartSolar MPPT controllers with VE.Direct ports.
- ✓ Supported Orion XS and Smart IP43 charger connections to a compatible GX device.
- ✓ Compatible VE.Direct Phoenix inverter connections where the product manual calls for VE.Direct.
- ✓ Compact RV, marine, van, off-grid, and professional electrical boards with tight cable-routing space.
Genuine Victron Reliability
Exact part-number matching and factory termination for professional installations.
Clean installation guidance
Test the connector orientation before mounting your equipment.
- ✓ Place the right-angle end at the device with the tightest rear or side clearance.
- ✓ Confirm the molded cable-exit direction does not interfere with adjacent ports or mounting hardware.
- ✓ Maintain a gentle bend radius and add strain relief near both connected devices.
- ✓ Route the data cable away from sharp edges, moving parts, standing water, and high-temperature surfaces.
- ✓ Do not cut, splice, or daisy-chain VE.Direct extension cables.

Choose the connector family and length that match your actual ports and routing distance.
Check the port before you order
VE.Direct, VE.Bus, VE.Can, RJ12, and USB interfaces are different cable families.
Match the cable to the labels and connector shape on both devices. A cable that physically resembles another communication cable may use a different connector, pinout, or protocol. Review both product manuals when designing a Victron or Epoch-integrated system.
Victron VE.Direct Right-Angle Cable FAQs
Common questions about connector orientation, compatibility, cable length, and tight-clearance installation.
Are both ends of this cable right-angled?
No. Part ASS030531209 has one standard straight VE.Direct connector and one right-angle connector. Place the angled end at the device where rear or side clearance is most limited.
Does it matter which end plugs into the Cerbo GX, SmartShunt, or MPPT?
For a normal point-to-point VE.Direct connection, the cable can be oriented to suit the installation. Use the right-angle end at the device that needs the lowest-profile cable exit and the straight end where more space is available.
Will the right-angle connector block the port next to it?
The right-angle design is intended to reduce installation depth, but adjacent-port clearance depends on the specific Victron device, connector orientation, and mounting position. Test-fit the connector before permanently mounting a Cerbo GX, BMV display, MPPT, or other component.
What is the difference between VE.Direct and VE.Bus or VE.Can?
VE.Direct uses Victron's smaller four-core data connection for supported battery monitors, solar chargers, chargers, Orion XS units, and VE.Direct inverters. VE.Bus and VE.Can use RJ45-style network cables for different product families, including MultiPlus or Quattro systems and CAN networks. The cable types are not interchangeable.
Can I use this cable to connect an Epoch battery directly to a Cerbo GX?
No, not as a universal battery communication cable. Epoch batteries with Victron or CANbus communication normally require the battery model's specified CAN-BMS cable or harness connected to a VE.Can or BMS-Can port. This product is a VE.Direct cable for devices that actually have VE.Direct ports.
Which Victron products can use this cable?
It can be used between compatible devices that have VE.Direct ports. Common examples include supported BMV battery monitors, SmartShunts, BlueSolar or SmartSolar MPPT controllers, Orion XS units, Smart IP43 chargers, certain Phoenix inverters, and compatible GX devices. Always confirm both devices have VE.Direct ports.
Is 0.9 meters long enough for my installation?
The 0.9-meter length is approximately 2.95 feet and is intended for short runs on the same electrical board, inside a nearby cabinet, or behind a shallow wall panel. Choose a longer factory cable when devices are located in separate compartments.
Can I cut, splice, or extend this VE.Direct cable?
Victron states that VE.Direct cables cannot be extended and supports direct cable lengths up to 10 meters. Do not cut or splice this cable. Select a longer factory-made VE.Direct cable or use a VE.Direct-to-USB interface with an appropriate active USB extension for longer routes.
Is this a power cable?
No. This is a low-voltage data and communication cable. It does not carry battery charging current, inverter power, or solar-array power and should not be used as a substitute for correctly sized electrical wiring.
What warranty applies to this Victron accessory?
Victron currently provides a standard five-year warranty on its power-product range, subject to its warranty terms and the original dealer support process. Keep your proof of purchase and contact the selling dealer for warranty assistance.
