Keep an Eye on Course, Data, and Security

Navigation and communication are critical for safety and overview. Interfaces like NMEA 2000/0183, suitable transducers, and correct voltage are crucial.

Many systems can be expanded step-by-step – from a simple display to a fully networked system.

This way, you get technology that truly supports you and proves itself at sea.

Discover variants, materials, and designs built for maritime use. This way, you'll find equipment that remains reliable on board – season after season.

Deine Fragen / Unsere Antworte

What minimum IP rating should an outdoor Wi-Fi antenna for a boat have?
For use on the mast or in the cockpit, at least IP66 is recommended so that splash water and rain are not a problem. Devices for purely indoor use can manage with IP54.
Can I connect my chartplotter to my tablet via Wi-Fi?
Yes, many modern chartplotters have an integrated Wi-Fi function or can be integrated via a marine router. Check if your plotter uses its own hotspot protocol – some manufacturers rely on proprietary apps that require a direct peer-to-peer link.
Do marine Wi-Fi routers work directly on the 12V onboard electrical system?
Most models in this category are designed for 12V and 24V and are connected directly to the onboard battery or a fused line. Pay attention to the specified voltage range in the data sheet, as some devices require an additional power supply unit.
How do I lay the antenna cable to minimize signal loss?
Keep the cable run between the antenna and the router as short as possible and use coaxial cables with low attenuation. Avoid tight bending radii and check all plug connections for corrosion after the season – damp or oxidized plugs are the most common cause of signal loss.
