NMEA over WiFi Make your NMEA data available to all your devices

More and more people are using OpenCPN and other apps on their laptop and mobile devices. One way or the other, you will have to connect your device to the NMEA data. One way of doing that is via the USB-port. But the disadvantage is that it can create ground loops and that you can connect only ONE device, and that device needs an USB port.

NMEA2WiFi is a small device that can put your NMEA data on a WiFi data stream, usable by multiple devices at the same time.
