NMEA 2000 to Ethernet Gateway
As boats increasingly adopt wireless routers and internet connectivity solutions like Digital Yacht 4G Connect, the NMEA 2000 Ethernet Gateway allows seamless integration of NMEA data into the onboard network. This gateway enables connected devices and applications to access real-time data from the boat's systems.
Available in two versions for NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000, it features a user-friendly web interface for easy configuration of NMEA baud rates and IP/Port settings through any web browser.
This device supports multiple TCP/IP connections and is bi-directional. Users can easily configure applications such as TZ iBoat, iNavX, NavLink, iSailor, Imray, and Weather 4D by entering the designated IP address and port for NMEA data streaming.

The Digital Yacht NMEA 2000 to Ethernet Gateway provides a solution for integrating marine NMEA 2000 data into an onboard Ethernet network. This device, part number ZDIGLANLN2K, is designed for IT professionals and marine system integrators managing vessel networks that require real-time data access for connected applications and devices. It facilitates the transfer of NMEA 2000 data to an IP network, enabling compatibility with various marine navigation and monitoring software. The gateway includes an iKonvert NMEA Certified gateway for direct connection to an NMEA 2000 backbone. Configuration is managed through a web interface, accessible via any web browser, allowing for settings like IP/Port and baud rates. It supports both TCP/IP and UDP modes, with TCP/IP mode accommodating up to five simultaneous device connections. The unit operates on 10-35V DC, offering bi-directional communication and status indicators for system diagnostics.
This gateway is designed for NMEA 2000 integration via the included iKonvert NMEA Certified gateway. It also supports NMEA 0183 input, configurable at 4800 or 38400 baud, and offers an RS232 port for additional PC applications.
The product ships with an iKonvert NMEA Certified gateway, which facilitates effortless connection to an NMEA 2000 backbone. Other necessary cables, such as an RJ45 Cat 5/6 patch cable for network connection, are not specified as included.
Configuration is performed through a menu-driven web user interface, accessible via any web browser on a client device. This eliminates the need for complex software installations and allows for setting NMEA data rates, IP modes (static or DHCP), and TCP/IP or UDP modes.
The gateway operates on a 10-35V DC power supply. Its approximate power consumption is 50mA at 12V DC, making it suitable for 12V or 24V DC marine electrical systems.
