It is JST-PH
I went for a look too, curiosity eh.. http://beta.ivc.no/wiki/index.php/Victron_VE_Direct_DIY_Cable
That Wiki keeps referring to RS232. There is no RS232 around VE.Direct, it's 5V TTL for the MPPT's and 3.3V TTL for the BMV's.
I've had to put a number of people straight around here. They shove +-12V RS232 signals up their poor little BMV and wonder why it's protesting,
Besides the Voltage, TTL signals are inverted in comparison to RS232.
Yeh ok. I won't delete it, so your protest can stay registered. :)
Both of the cables in the wiki use a TTL-232 adapter; one is a module, the other is a raw board.
Found it. Two connectors per cable!
