Meet the Digital Yacht iKonvert NMEA 2000/0183 Gateway Converter — a compact, ISO-certified bridge that lets legacy NMEA0183 devices communicate on modern NMEA2000 networks. Designed for real-life marine installations, it delivers reliable, bi-directional data conversions with full galvanic isolation for safety and reliability.
-
Bi-directional NMEA0183 to NMEA2000 conversion: Connect older sensors, displays, and instruments to modern NMEA2000 networks, or feed GPS and navigation data to legacy VHF/Autopilot.
-
Real Life data modes: predefined modes mirror common marine setups (Heading, AIS, GPS, Wind, Sounder, Instruments) plus an all‑data gateway mode for flexibility.
-
Simple mode configuration with DIP switches: remove two screws, flip the switches to select a mode, and on the next power‑up the device auto‑configures the conversions and baud rates.
-
Integrated cabling and power: includes integral NMEA0183 cable and NMEA2000 Micro (Male) drop cable; powers directly from the NMEA2000 bus for clean integration.
-
Full galvanic isolation: isolates NMEA0183 from NMEA2000 to protect gear and reduce electrical interference, ensuring reliable data exchange across networks.
-
Compact, rugged design: easy to mount on any vessel while maintaining flexibility for future upgrades.
-
Versatile gateway for mixed-brand systems: ideal for connecting multiple brands and models, letting new MFDs and older gear communicate effortlessly.
-
Model: ZDIGIKVT — an intelligent, flexible gateway designed to satisfy diverse installation needs.
This gateway simplifies integrating legacy hardware with modern navigation ecosystems, enabling seamless data sharing, reducing wiring complexity, and enhancing overall onboard reliability across mixed-brand installations. By providing galvanic isolation and auto‑configuration, it protects gear from electrical interference while easing upgrades—so you can upgrade MFDs or distribute GPS/navigation data to older equipment without rewiring the ship.
