Actisense Pro NMEA 0183 Multiplexer – 5 Inputs, 2 ISO-Drive Outputs, Ethernet & Serial Connections - PRO-NDC-1E

Actisense Pro NMEA 0183 Multiplexer – 5 Inputs, 2 ISO-Drive Outputs, Ethernet & Serial Connections

The Actisense Pro NMEA 0183 Multiplexer (Part Number: PRO-NDC-1E) is a rugged and reliable device designed for seamless data integration in marine and industrial applications. Featuring five isolated NMEA 0183 input ports and two ISO-Drive NMEA 0183 outputs, this multiplexer ensures protected and accurate data transmission across multiple instruments. Its robust construction and type approval from RINA make it suitable for leisure, commercial, and class/type installations, providing versatility and compliance for a variety of operational needs. The device supports baud rates from 4800 to 38400, allowing compatibility with a wide range of NMEA devices, and offers advanced features such as auto-switching between primary, secondary, and tertiary inputs to optimize data flow and prioritize critical information. Sentence filtering capabilities help reduce bandwidth consumption by blocking unwanted sentences, and configuration is simplified through a web-based interface, eliminating the need for complex manual setup. Diagnostic LEDs provide quick operational status checks, ensuring system health at a glance. The multiplexer also offers NMEA data streaming over Ethernet, enabling integration with existing Ethernet-based systems and devices for enhanced connectivity. Its serial port, fully isolated using ISO-Drive technology, supports RS-422, RS-232, and RS-485 protocols at speeds up to 115200 bps, accommodating a variety of legacy and modern communication standards. The Ethernet port supports 10/100BaseT connections with automatic polarity detection, and the device includes multiple protection features, such as transient overvoltage, reverse polarity, and ESD protection, ensuring durability and safety in demanding environments. Constructed with 316 stainless steel housing, it offers durability and corrosion resistance, with mounting options including bulkhead and DIN rail. Power is supplied via a 9 to 35 V DC connection, with input protections to prevent damage. Additional features include configurable baud rates, data combining, rate conversion, and the ability to update firmware easily for future-proof operation. Certified according to IEC 60945 and DNVGL standards, the Actisense PRO-NDC-1E provides a comprehensive solution for reliable NMEA data management in marine and industrial applications, backed by a 3-year warranty (extended to 5 years with registration).
