1. YAKKER Single input port NMEA in wi-fi out  A single input port (wired) NMEA 0183 to wi-fi converter by Australian manufacturer YakBitz with a two year warranty. Ideal for sending AIS targets to a Navionics Boating App on a phone or tablet.
This very small device measures just 54mm x 34mm x 15mm and is the perfect answer to converting NMEA0183 data to wi-fi for sending to another device. Examples of the possible use could be, sending AIS from an AIS device to a wi-fi enabled chart plotter, a phone, tablet or PC. Using this device together with a phone or iPad with a Navionics or C-Map chart download or an Open CPN chart will enable AIS targets to be overlaid on the chart. current drain is just 80 m/a

Single port NMEA to Wi-Fi device

2. Dual port version of the device above. The two input ports provide a way to send two NMEA devices to a wi-fi device/network. Each port is configurable for baud rate e.g. send AIS & GPS @38400 baud for an AIS application and GPS@4800 to other 4800 devices.

Dual port NMEA0183 to Wi-Fi out

3. Bi Directional NMEA to Wi-Fi device. Can convert NMEA 0183 data to wi-fi output and wi-fi to NMEA0183 back to the YakBack

 Bi-Directional NMEA to wi-fi




4. YakMux, 3 port NMEA0183 combiner (multiplexer) 3 input and 3 output ports + USB

Multiplexor 3 inputs 3 outputs + USB, all ports configurable

Combine any input to any output or/and the USB connection. Port in and port out baud rate can be individually defined.

Set up is by USB connection to a PC using a serial interface program such as PuTTY. Full user instructions sent with the Mux.
Need the Mux set up? no problem, just describe how you want the set-up and we do it for you at no cost. Tell us which input port to which output you want connected and at what baud rate.


The Mux default setting is:

USB PORT speed fixed at 115200

USB IN(From Computer) mapped to PORT 2 OUT,

PORT 1 IN and PORT 1 OUT speed = 38400

PORT 1 IN mapped to USB OUT (To Computer), PORT 1 OUT,

PORT 2 IN and PORT 2 OUT speed = 4800

PORT 2 IN mapped to USB OUT (To Computer), PORT 1 OUT, PORT 3 OUT,

PORT 3 IN and PORT 3 OUT speed = 4800

PORT 3 IN mapped to USB OUT (To Computer), PORT 1 OUT, PORT 3 OUT,

SeaTalk Devices: Convert Raymarine SeaTalk1 GPS to NMEA0183 @4800 baud. 

NOTE// Seatalk1 does not provide AIS @ 38400 baud so these devices cannot be used to send AIS to a phone/tablet. For Raymarine SeaTalk1 equipment ONLY- not SeaTalk ng.  You can think of ST as Raymarine's version of NMEA0183 and ng as Raymarine's version of NMEA2000 

If your Raymarine equipment is  2019 or later, it is likely to be ng and these converters will not work - please check.



5. SeaTalk1 to NMEA Bridge Connect SeaTalk to an NMEA device via wired connections input and output  

ST1 to NMEA converter with wired in and out connections

6. SeaTalk1 to NMEA wi-fi Bridge as for 5 but using wi-fi for the NMEA output side

ST1 to NMEA wi-fi

7. Seatalk1 to NMEA USB Bridge as for 5 but using a miniature USB connection to send NMEA 0183 (4800 baud only) to a PC 

ST1 to a wired connection, NMEA0183 (4800 baud) to miniature USB out

NOTE.....

If you need to covert NMEA2000 to wi-fi or need water protection, take a look at our ONWA KC-2W, a bi-directional 0183 to 2000 converter with wi-fi.
