ACTISENSE PRO-NBF-1 Type-Approved NMEA 0183 Buffer, 1 Input/6 Outputs – PRO-NBF-1

Description

ACTISENSE PRO-NBF-1 Type-Approved NMEA 0183 Buffer, 1 Input/6 Outputs – PRO-NBF-1

The Actisense PRO-NBF-1 safely distributes one NMEA 0183 data source to as many as six listener devices. Its optically isolated input and six ISO-Drive outputs protect the connected talker and listeners while restoring each output to the proper signal level for consistent data delivery.

• One OPTO-isolated NMEA 0183 input and six individually isolated ISO-Drive outputs
• Automatically follows the input baud rate from 4,800 to 115,200 baud
• Compatible with NMEA 0183, RS422 and RS232 sources; RS485 listener compatible
• 316 stainless-steel housing provides durability and useful RF shielding
• RINA type approval and IEC 60945/IACS E10 compliance suit professional installations

Use the PRO-NBF-1 where a single GPS, heading sensor or other talker must feed multiple displays, radios or ECDIS stations without loading the source or creating ground loops. It repeats the incoming data transparently and does not filter or validate sentences.
