Does anyone have the 5 port interlink and if so where did you install it on your boat?
Are you meaning the 5-Port Ethernet Switch (AS-ETH-5PS)? AS ETH 5PS :: Humminbird
This is not the same thing as the InterLink accessory.
Sorry, yes the ethernet switch.
Kosmo has one...maybe he will see this soon...

I have one, I placed it in my back battery compartment. I have a Skeeterboat.
You can put it anywhere you want as long as you can get power and the Ethernet cables to it. If you have devices on the bow and console, it would make sense to put it at the console.
I guess my big question is does it have to be protected. Mine would work better if I put it at the bow right under the trolling motor. In this spot it will be exposed to weather.
Is advertises waterproof...

5-Port Ethernet Switch
This waterproof switch allows you to quickly and easily connect up to five Ethernet items. Use it to link multiple Humminbird head units, share transducers, add an NMEA 2000 network or step up to the Humminbird Radar. With so many options and even more to come, the possibilities are endless. The purchase of Ethernet cables is required depending on the number of devices you plan to add to this switch.
