The PRO-MUX-2 is rugged, with a stainless steel housing, and provides isolation on all inputs and outputs. With eight NMEA 0183 inputs, six NMEA 0183 outputs, a bi-directional serial port and an Ethernet port, the PRO-MUX-2 is a perfect solution for larger leisure vessels, commercial shipping and is a great addition for systems that require type-approved devices.

The PRO-MUX-2 is designed to suit the majority of NMEA 0183 systems, from leisure through to class vessels.

Features:

  • 8 OPTO-isolated NMEA 0183 inputs
  • 6 ISO-Drive NMEA 0183 outputs
  • Bi-directional isolated serial port (can be used for additional NMEA 0183 input/ output)
  • 0183 streaming via Ethernet
  • Alarm output (N/O and N/C contacts)
  • Designed for 12- and 24-Volt supply
  • Isolation to battery supply
  • Configurable input and output baud rates for rate conversion
  • Data combining from any input to any output
  • 2 independent Autoswitch virtual inputs with priority
  • Advanced sentence-based filtering / routing
  • Diagnostic LEDs on all inputs and outputs
  • Alarm, mode and Bi-colour Status LED’s
  • 2-part pluggable connector system supports both screw and screwless terminals
  • DIN rail or Panel mountable
  • Advanced statistics are available via a Web Browser
