NGX-1-ISO - Actisense NGX-1 NMEA 0183 to NMEA 2000 Gateway

NGX-1 NMEA 0183 to NMEA 2000 Gateway with PC Interface

The Actisense NGX-1 is a sophisticated gateway designed to convert NMEA 0183 data to NMEA 2000 and vice versa. This enables seamless communication between devices that utilize both standards, allowing vessel owners to upgrade their electronics incrementally. By integrating new NMEA 2000 devices while maintaining existing NMEA 0183 devices, users can minimize initial investment costs associated with modernization.

This ISO version of the NGX-1 connects effortlessly to NMEA 0183 devices using a dedicated pair of data wires for sending and receiving information, ensuring bi-directional data sharing when needed. The device features OPTOIsolation for safe input connections and utilizes groundbreaking ISO-Drive technology on the output to safeguard your devices against ground loops.

Furthermore, the NGX-1 requires no independent power supply as it draws power directly from the NMEA 2000 network, making installation simpler. It also facilitates the sending and receiving of NMEA 2000 data between a PC and the NMEA 2000 network, allowing software applications to enhance or complement existing hardware like Multifunction Displays (MFDs) or Chart Plotters.

In its role as an NMEA 2000 to PC Gateway, the NGX-1 acts as a rule-enforcing firewall, providing users with complete control over the data that flows between their PC and the network, while fully supporting the transfer of all currently available NMEA 2000 PGN data.

The Actisense NGX-1 NMEA 0183 to NMEA 2000 Gateway facilitates data conversion between NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 networks. This device is designed for IT professionals and vessel owners who need to integrate marine electronic systems operating on different communication standards. It enables the connection of newer NMEA 2000 devices with existing NMEA 0183 equipment, supporting incremental upgrades and potentially reducing immediate investment in full system overhauls. The NGX-1-ISO model offers bi-directional data sharing via dedicated data wires for NMEA 0183 connections, incorporating OPTO-Isolation for input safety and ISO-Drive technology on the output to mitigate ground loop issues. It draws power directly from the NMEA 2000 network, simplifying installation. Additionally, it functions as a PC interface, allowing software applications to interact with the NMEA 2000 network and providing control over data flow.
