Actisense NBF-3 NMEA 0183 Buffer

• Galvanic opto-isolation on the NMEA 0183 input.
• ISO-Drive NMEA 0183 outputs provide galvanic isolation to prevent ground loops.
• Compatible with all NMEA 0183 versions without requiring configuration.
• NMEA 0183 outputs compatible with RS422, RS232 and RS485 type Listeners.
• NMEA 0183 input compatible with RS422 and RS232 type Talkers.
• Pluggable screw terminals for quick and easy installation and diagnostics.
• Power and input indicator LEDs.
• Works automatically up to 115200 Baud.
• Amplification of weak input signals.
• Power feed for single cable installation to the NMEA Talker.

The Actisense NMEA 0183 Buffer isolates and buffers NMEA 0183 data, with the power to drive multiple devices.

Ground breaking ISO-Drive technology from Actisense means you can safely connect to 6 NMEA 0183 Listeners to the NBF-3 with complete peace of mind that your devices are safe from hazardous ground loops. The OPTO-isolated input also protects the connected Talker.

The NBF-3 can distribute up to six identical, amplified streams of data from one source. The NMEA signals are buffered to ensure that each Listener receives the data at the required voltage levels, providing consistent data quality.

The NBF-3 has the addition of power distribution for the NMEA Talker. By having power and data from the same source, cabling requirements are reduced and installation is simple.
