NBE¹ solves bus errors and other electrical problems caused by exceeding any of these limits, and makes the design of large networks easier. Maretron's NBE100 (Network Bus Extender) allows you to expand the maximum number of nodes, network trunk length and cumulative tap length of any NMEA 2000 network. Message routing based on high priority ensures that high priority messages are always given priority over low priority messages, thereby achieving predictable and reliable network operation. NBE⁰⁰ will transparently route NMEA messages between two network segments, making them a single logical NMEA network. This will divide the network into two electrical parts, each of which can contain up to 1/3 nodes, and a total of ¹ nodes on the logical network. If your network exceeds any of these specifications, you can simply disconnect the network trunk in the middle and connect both ends with additional terminating resistors to NBE¹. The NMEA⁰⁰⁰ network allows up to ⁵⁰ nodes on a single network, the maximum network trunk length is ⁰⁰m, and the maximum cumulative discard length is ⁷⁸m.

Optically isolates network segments, increasing signal integrity and network reliability.Priority-based message routing ensures higher-priority messages get through the bus extender first.Allows all NMEA 2000 devices to operate as if they were still on a single NMEA 2000 network.Allows you to exceed the 78m cumulative drop length limitation on a NMEA 2000 network.Allows you to exceed the 200m trunk length limitation on a NMEA 2000 network.Allows you to exceed the 50 node limitation on a NMEA 2000 network.Segments a single large NMEA 2000 network into two smaller electrical segments.Advanced priority-based message routing ensures that higher-priority messages are always prioritized over lower-priority messages, enabling predictable and reliable network operation. The NBE100 will transparently route NMEA 2000 messages between the two network segments, making them work as a single logical NMEA 2000 network. This will split the network into two electrical segments, each of which can have up to 50 nodes, for a total of 100 nodes on the logical network. If you have a network that exceeds any of these specifications, you can simply disconnect the network trunk in the middle and connect the ends to the NBE100, along with additional termination resistors. NMEA 2000 networks have a maximum of 50 nodes allowed on a single network, a maximum network trunk length of 200m and a maximum cumulative drop length of 78m. The NBE100 solves bus errors and other electrical issues caused by exceeding any of these limitations and makes design of large networks easier. Maretron's NBE100 (Network Bus Extender) allows you to extend the maximum node count, network trunk length and cumulative drop length of any NMEA 2000 network.
