Actisense 0183 to N2K Gateway w/PC Interface, USB [NGX-1-USB]

0183 to N2K Gateway with PC Interface, USBThe NGX-1 is an intelligent gateway that converts NMEA 0183 data to NMEA 2000 (and vice versa), allowing you to share information between devices from the two standards. This creates the possibility of upgrading some of the vessel’s electronics to NMEA 2000 and keeping the remaining NMEA 0183 devices. This can help spread the cost of transitioning to NMEA 2000, reducing the initial upgrade cost to accommodate a new NMEA 2000 device. The ISO variant connects easily to NMEA 0183 devices with a dedicated pair of data wires for transmit and receive, allowing the NGX-1 to share data bi-directionally if required. OPTOIsolation is included on the input and groundbreaking ISO-DriveTM technology is on the output to keep your devices safe from hazardous ground loops. The USB Variant allows for quick and easy connectivity to a PC running software that requires NMEA 0183 data.Thanks to the device being low power, it is powered directly from the NMEA 2000
