LANLink NMEA 0183 To Ethernet Gateway

More and more boats now have a wireless router fitted or utilize services like Digital Yacht 4G Connect for internet connectivity. LANLink is an NMEA to ethernet gateway that enables the boats NMEA data to integrate into the router network -allowing connected devices and apps to take advantage of the data.

LANLinkis available in two versions suitable for NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 respectively. It features an easy-to-use web interface allowing any device with a browser to configure NMEA baud rates and IP/Port information.

It can support multiple TCP/IP connections and is bi-directional. Once connected to the onboard network via a simple CAT 5/6 patch cable, users can set apps like TZ iBoat, iNavX, NavLink, iSailor, Imray, Weather 4D, etc., by simply entering the IP address and port for streaming NMEA data.

Features:

• NMEA 0183 to ethernet gateway version


• 12/24v DC low power operation


• Connects to router or devices via simple RJ45 Cat 5/6 patch cable connection


• The web user interface for easy setup from the connected device via the browser


• TCP/IP or UDP connection modes support for up to 5 connected devices with TCP/IP
