Victron 500 smart shunt.What type of plug(White 4 pin connector) is on this shunt. Trying to make an extended cord for the bluetooth extender.Thanks Pat
 
The 4pin cables are for VE.Direct cables. Usually going to a GX Device- such as a Cerbo.

There is a VE.Direct Bluetooth dongle that they say does much better Bluetooth range. Look on the data sheet for the Smartshunt- bottom of second page.

Looked on data sheet doesn't show what type plug. Im just going to cut the male plug off and extend the cord to desired length.Thanks Rocketman for reply.

It would probably be the easiest since attempting to find the exact plug will be difficult. I don't think it will cause any issues to extend the wire.
 
The 4-pin plugs are available on Amazon and it looks like a USB pin out (but not sure about the communication protocol used by Victron). You can either make your own or just buy it from Signature Solar in many lengths.




Here is more info on the plug:
