Pytes Power Cable, 2 m – Amphenol 5.7 mm to M8
The Pytes connection cable with the manufacturer's part number 161412100244 Connects a male Amphenol 5.7-mm connector to an M8 screw terminal. The 2-meter-long orange DC cable is pre-assembled with an Amphenol plug and an M8 ring terminal.
When connecting a Victron Multi RS19 The Amphenol connector is connected to the inverter's positive battery terminal. The M8 ring terminal leads to the battery, battery fuse, busbar, or DC distribution panel with a matching M8 connection.
Advantages of the pre-assembled Plus cable
- Compatible with the Victron Multi RS19: Amphenol 5.7-mm connector for the device's positive battery terminal.
- M8 ring terminal: For a suitable battery, fuse, busbar, or DC distribution connection.
- 2 m cable length: Provides flexibility for clear cable routing within the power system.
- Unambiguous polarity: The orange color identifies the cable as the positive DC wire.
- Pre-assembled: The Amphenol connector and M8 ring terminal are already installed.
Connection to the Victron Multi RS19
The Victron Multi RS19 features Amphenol SurLok Plus connectors for connecting to the battery. The The orange Amphenol 5.7-mm plug on this cable connects to the positive battery terminal of the Multi RS19 used.
The M8 ring terminal at the other end of the cable is connected to the positive M8 terminal of the designated battery or to an intermediate DC fuse or busbar. Together with the corresponding black negative wire, this forms a pre-assembled cable pair for connecting the Multi RS19 to the battery.
Compatibility with Pytes E-BOX
The connection cable is designed for DC system configurations with the Pytes E-BOX 48100R and the Pytes E-BOX 4850 Suitable, provided there is a matching M8 connection point on the designated connection side.
Since Pytes batteries may use different power connectors depending on the model, revision, and installation type, the specific connector type must be verified before placing an order. For a battery model with an Amphenol connector, a suitable Amphenol-to-Amphenol connector is required for a direct connection to the Multi RS19, which is also equipped with an Amphenol connector.
How to Correctly Distinguish Between Amphenol 5.7 mm and 4 AWG
The specification "5.7 mm" refers to the size of the Amphenol connector. It does not describe the conductor cross-sectional area. The cable itself is supplied by Pytes as UL10269, 4 AWG specified. 4 AWG corresponds to approximately 21.15 mm² (nominal).
This cable should not be confused with Pytes cables for Amphenol 8.0 mm or with versions designed for M10 mounting studs. Both cable connectors are always relevant when making a selection.

Applications
The positive cable is suitable for 48-V battery systems in which a 5.7-mm Amphenol connector must be connected to an M8 connector. These include appropriately configured stationary solar storage systems, off-grid systems, emergency power systems, and grid-connected ESS systems.
What matters is not just the product names of the connected components, but the actual connection configuration and the proper electrical design of the entire system.
Installation Instructions
Installation may only be performed when the system is de-energized and protected against accidental re-energization. Before connecting, the positive and negative terminals must be clearly identified and checked with a suitable measuring device.
Fuse protection, maximum system current, the number of batteries in parallel, wiring, and connection torque must be determined based on the current documentation from Victron, Pytes, and the other components used. Work on battery storage systems must be performed by appropriately qualified professionals.
Conclusion
The Pytes Plus Cable 161412100244 features a pre-assembled Amphenol 2-meter connector, 5.7 mm to M8. With the Victron Multi RS19, the Amphenol connector is connected to the inverter, while the M8 ring terminal leads to the battery or DC distribution panel. The orange marking ensures clear identification of the positive DC line.
