GME LE102 5 Metre Microphone Extension Cable for GME GX400 and GX700 Marine Radios Suits MK012 Flush-Mount Socket
The GME LE102 is a 5-metre microphone extension cable for the GX400 and GX700 marine radio series, designed for use with the MK012 flush-mount microphone socket. It extends the standard microphone connection by 5 metres, enabling the microphone to be positioned at a remote location from the radio head unit without the cable running from the radio's front panel.
Product overview
The LE102 is suited to hard-top vessel installations and any setup where the radio is mounted away from the helm or preferred microphone position. In combination with the MK012 flush-mount socket, the LE102 creates a clean remote microphone connection point at the desired helm or panel location. The extension cable runs from the radio to the MK012 socket, and the microphone plugs into the MK012 at the remote location.
The LE102 is a genuine GME accessory confirmed for the GX400 and GX700 marine radio series. It is not interchangeable with microphone extension leads for other GME radio families such as the LE040, which suits a different radio system with a different connector type.

Frequently asked questions
What does the LE102 allow in a marine radio installation? The LE102 extends the microphone connection from the radio by 5 metres, allowing the microphone to be plugged in and used at a location remote from the radio head unit. Used with the MK012 flush-mount socket, it creates a clean remote microphone position suited to hard-top vessels and installations where the radio and helm are in separate locations.
What is the MK012 socket? The MK012 is a flush-mount microphone socket installed at the desired helm or panel location on the vessel. The LE102 extension cable runs from the radio's microphone input to the MK012, and the microphone then plugs into the MK012 at the remote location.
What is the difference between the LE102 and the LE040? Both are microphone extension leads for different GME radio systems. The LE040 is an 8-pin microphone extension for GME fixed mount radios with LCD microphones. The LE102 is a 5-metre extension for the GX400 and GX700 marine radio series specifically. The two are not interchangeable ensure you select the correct extension lead for your specific radio model.
Can the LE102 be used with other GME marine radio models? The LE102 is confirmed for the GX400 and GX700 series. Compatibility with other GME marine radio models depends on whether they use the same connector and MK012 socket. Contact us to confirm compatibility before purchasing for any radio other than the GX400 or GX700.
Can multiple LE102 cables be connected for a longer run? Whether LE102 leads can be chained for a run longer than 5 metres is not confirmed in the available product data. Contact us if a longer cable run is required for your installation.
