    OPTO-4 NMEA® 0183 PC Opto-Isolator Cable

    Isolate an RS232 (PC) port to protect against ground loops

    Introduction
    The Actisense NMEA 0183 PC Opto-Isolator Cable (OPTO-4) is an easy way to link an NMEA 0183 device to an RS232
    (PC) serial port. The OPTO-4 isolation ensures the connected PC (or any other device with a standard full RS232 9-pin
    port) meets the latest NMEA 0183 input specification.

    Features
    • NMEA 0183 & RS232 compliant • Opto-isolation providing 2000 volt protection on the PC
    • Full duplex (two-way) communication input line
    • All baud rates up to 115200 Baud • Reverse voltage protection on the PC input line
    • Overmoulded case with a narrow profile for installing in • Current limited to protect against cable faults
    small spaces • Port-powered; takes power from the PC port
    • Transient protection on the PC output line • Fully shielded for superior noise rejection
