Wired VHF handset in cockpit

I would like to connect a WIRED handset from my radio at the nav station up to the cockpit
Has anyone done it?
How / where do you find a cable long enough?

Thx!

Depends if your VHF radio has extension mic/speaker capability, what model is it? Look up the installation manual on-line.

My Icom M510 is connected via command mic cable 10 meter to a CommandMic at the helm. If you want longer you can daisychain those cables.
Since I have this, I never used a portable VHF anymore. Just keep it for emergency.

We use Icom Command Mics, one attached to an M400BB and one attached to an M510. Not sure about cable lengths; not much required, in our case.
