- The NMEA Buffer has ISO-Drive™ technology on the outputs and OPTO-isolation on the input, enabling safe connections with peace of mind.
- The stainless steel housing provides durability and acts as an RF Shield, making it suitable for commercial installations.
- Quick installation with 2-part pluggable connectors, screw terminals, and professional DIN Rail mounting system (DIN Rail not included).
- Optional strain relief brackets ensure reliable cable management.
- Helpful LEDs indicate power, input, and output operation.
- Features:
- One Opto-Isolated Input
- Six ISO-Drive™ outputs
- Outputs automatically track the input baud rate
- RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 Listener compatible
- Benefits:
- ISO-Drive separates the Listener from the Talker to protect both the NBF-3 and connected devices
- Wide compatibility simplifies installation
- Simple installation saves time, money, and ensures peace of mind
- Type Approved (RINA)
