What Is the GE 2016998-001 Compatible Temperature Adapter Cable?

The GE Healthcare 2016998-001 compatible temperature adapter cable is a reusable, aftermarket dual-channel adapter that connects two 400-series temperature probes to the temperature input on GE Marquette and CARESCAPE patient monitors. It lets clinicians monitor two temperature sites at once, such as core and skin, from a single monitor port. It is a compatible replacement, not an original GE part, and it is built to OEM fit, form, and function.

Compatible Monitor Models

This compatible adapter is confirmed for use with GE CARESCAPE B450, B650, and B850 monitors and the GE B40, as well as Marquette Dash and Solar monitors, Eagle monitors, Tram and Tram 451 modules, the PDM module, and Cath-Lab and MAC-Lab hemodynamic systems. It also fits the Datex-Ohmeda E-PRESTN parameter module and the GE Aestiva/5 anesthesia system with compatible monitoring. Confirm that your monitor’s temperature input accepts 400-series probes before ordering.

Design and Construction

The adapter uses a short 1 ft (0.3 m) cable that splits the monitor’s temperature connector into two 400-series probe receptacles, keeping the connection compact at the monitor or module. It works with reusable and disposable 400-series probes, including general-purpose oral/rectal probes, esophageal probes, and skin-surface probes. The cable is reusable after cleaning according to facility protocol and ships one per bag.

When to Replace Your GE Temperature Adapter Cable

Replace the adapter when the monitor shows “temp probe off,” “no probe,” or out-of-range readings on one or both channels with known-good probes, when readings drop out as the adapter is moved, or when you find cracked housings, loose probe receptacles, or bent or corroded pins at the monitor connector. Testing each channel with a known-good probe or a temperature simulator quickly shows whether the adapter or a probe is at fault.
