Maretron MBB200C Black Box
The Black Box (MBB200C), from Seawork exhibitor Maretron, is a dedicated processing unit that includes Maretron’s N2KView vessel monitoring and control software.
The MBB200C runs only N2KView software making it extremely stable and dedicated to monitoring and controlling vessels.
It has been developed for marine use and includes a solid state disk drive to withstand the pounding of waves and since the MBB200C dissipates less than 25W, there is no need for noisy internal cooling fans.
The MBB200C connects to a monitor through a VGA connector and associated touch screen through a USB or serial port connection. Alternatives to controlling the N2KView software through a touch screen include keyboards, mice or track balls connected through USB.
In addition to the two completely isolated CAN bus connectors for simple connection to single or redundant NMEA 2000 networks, the MBB200C has an Ethernet port for connecting Internet Protocol (IP) cameras for viewing within the N2KView software.
