Actisense USG-2 Serial Adaptor Cable

Advanced technology for safe, reliable and simple connection of your NMEA 0183 devices to your PC’s USB port

The USG-2 converts a USB port into a bi-directional serial port suitable for connecting to a marine standard NMEA 0183 data bus.

Electrical isolation is provided by the ISO-DriveTM output and OPTO-isolated input making installation simple and free from ground loops and far safer connection when compared to standard USB to serial converters.

Multiple LEDs make diagnosing connection issues quick and easy. The blue power LED Illuminates solid blue when the USB driver has successfully loaded and the USG-2 is powered, while a green (receive) LED and an orange (transmit) LED indicate whether data is present.

The pluggable screwless connector makes installation quick and easy, and the specifically designed DIN rail mount option ensures a reliable secure bulkhead mount for the USG-2.
