Actisense explores the advantages of transitioning from NMEA 0183 to NMEA 2000, a crucial upgrade for boaters seeking improved connectivity and performance.
NMEA 2000 is a robust, plug-and-play marine networking standard, offering superior data transfer speeds and simplified installation compared to the older NMEA 0183 protocol.
Key benefits include:
- Ease of Installation: Less cabling and simpler connections using M12 connectors.
- Faster Data Transfer: Higher bandwidth for more data exchange.
- Enhanced Compatibility: Supports a wider range of instrument data.
Product highlights:
- NGW-1: Converts NMEA 0183 data for NMEA 2000 networks.
- PRO-NDC-1E: Combines multiple NMEA 0183 outputs for seamless integration.
- W2K-1 Wireless Gateway: Enables wireless data transfer from NMEA 2000 networks to phones or tablets.
