The MiniPlex-3Wi-N2K is an advanced multiplexer designed to integrate and manage data from various marine electronic devices, facilitating seamless communication across your vessel's navigation network. This device combines NMEA 0183 data from multiple sources into a unified stream and serves as a gateway between NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 networks. Additionally, it features a bidirectional SeaTalk interface, enabling conversion between SeaTalk data and NMEA 0183 sentences.
- NMEA 0183 Integration: Supports four NMEA 0183 inputs and two outputs, allowing flexible routing and filtering of data between devices.
- NMEA 2000 Gateway: Facilitates bidirectional communication between NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 networks, enabling seamless data exchange across different marine electronic systems.
- SeaTalk Compatibility: Input 1 can be configured as a bidirectional SeaTalk port, converting SeaTalk data to NMEA 0183 and vice versa, ensuring compatibility with Raymarine instruments.
- WiFi Connectivity: Functions as both an access point and client, allowing direct device connections or integration into existing WiFi networks.
- USB Interface: Provides a galvanically isolated USB port for connection to computers, facilitating data transfer and configuration.
- Advanced Data Routing and Filtering: Offers comprehensive routing and filtering capabilities, including sentence conversions and prioritization, to manage data flow effectively.
