What Is the GE 2021701-001 Compatible Temperature Adapter Cable?

The GE Healthcare 2021701-001 compatible temperature adapter cable is a reusable, aftermarket interconnect cable that links a 400-series temperature probe to the temperature input on GE Marquette patient monitors and modules. It lets facilities use standard reusable or disposable 400-series probes with their GE monitoring fleet. 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 cable is confirmed for use with Marquette Dash and Eagle monitors, the Tram 451 and PDM modules, the GE Procare B40, and the GE CARESCAPE B650. It can also be used with the Contec MS400 patient simulator for temperature channel testing. Confirm that your monitor’s temperature input accepts 400-series probes before ordering.

Design and Construction

The 9.8 ft (3.0 m) cable provides reach from the monitor or module to the patient, so the probe lead stays short and manageable at the bedside, in the OR, or in the ICU. It works with reusable and disposable 400-series probes, including general-purpose oral/rectal, esophageal, 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 cable when the monitor shows “temp probe off,” “no probe,” or out-of-range readings with a known-good probe, when readings drop out as the cable is moved, or when you find a cracked jacket, a loose probe receptacle, or bent or corroded pins at the monitor connector. Long adapter cables are easily pinched in bed rails and stretcher frames, so inspect them regularly. Testing with a known-good probe or a temperature simulator quickly shows whether the cable or the probe is at fault.
