- 8 NMEA 0183 interfaces (inputs and outputs) IEC 61162 Ed.1-4
- NMEA 0183 ports can be switched as input and output; thus 16 ports
- Multiplexer and buffer / distributor / converter in one device
- Automatic bidirectional conversion between IEC 61162 Ed1-4 and the new Ethernet standard IEC 61162-450
- Automatic grouping (multisentence messages)
- Tagblock configuration; data logging
- Configuration for proprietary multisentence messages possible
- Optional real time – time Server (NTP); time synchronization with GPS time
- Bidirectional conversion to UDP / TCP-IP / Multicast
- Cluster capability (several devices in a network); reduced cabling and installation costs
- In a cluster, all NMEA inputs are available at each device
- Fully configurable with included PC software
- Inputs and outputs are galvanically and optically isolated
- Intelligent data management prevents data errors
- Data filter dynamically adjustable for high performance
