NMEA 0183 is a widely used marine communication standard. Onboard equipment shares data such as position, course, speed, depth, wind and AIS using recognizable text strings.

You'll primarily find NMEA 0183 in existing installations, refits, and systems where older and newer equipment need to work together. With the right interfaces, buffers, or converters, you can properly distribute, amplify, or convert data.

NMEA 2000 is often the more modern choice for new installations, but NMEA 0183 remains important because much reliable equipment still uses it. Therefore, here you will find components to keep NMEA 0183 stable or to cleverly connect it to a larger system.
