Actisense
Installing small NMEA 2000 networks is quicker and easier than it’s ever been with the Self-contained Boat Network (SBN) from Actisense. The equivalent of eight T-pieces in a single case provides a significant time and space saving with no more connecting multiple T-pieces together. Termination resistors are built in which increases the saving on time and space.
