The Victron VE.Net GMDSS panel is a remote monitoring panel for the VE.Net network on marine vessels. It gives at-a-glance status information for onboard electrical systems where GMDSS compliance is required, and is aimed at professional marine installers and commercial vessel operators.

Key features

• GMDSS compliance, designed for GMDSS-compliant marine electrical installations.
• VE.Net network, connects directly into the VE.Net network to communicate with compatible Victron devices.
• Remote monitoring, provides remote panel monitoring without needing a separate display unit.
• Weight, 157 g, suited to space-constrained helm or navigation areas.
• VE.Net ecosystem, compatible with other VE.Net-enabled components.

Product overview

The panel connects to the VE.Net network bus and displays status information from Victron inverters, chargers and other VE.Net-compatible devices. GMDSS installations need reliable power monitoring for emergency communication equipment, and this panel gives a dedicated monitoring point within the VE.Net architecture.

VE.Net is Victron's proprietary network protocol, letting multiple devices communicate over a single bus. The GMDSS panel works as a remote display node on that bus. It can be positioned at the navigation station or wherever the GMDSS equipment sits, without running extra wiring back to each individual device.

Applications

• Commercial vessels needing GMDSS-compliant power monitoring at the navigation station.
• Workboats, fishing vessels and passenger craft with Victron VE.Net electrical systems.
• Marine installations needing a remote VE.Net panel at a GMDSS equipment station.
• Professional marine electrical installations needing dedicated remote monitoring points.

Installation notes

Installation should be carried out by a qualified marine electrician familiar with VE.Net network wiring and GMDSS regulatory requirements. Check that all connected VE.Net devices are compatible before commissioning, and confirm the installation meets the relevant maritime authority requirements for GMDSS power monitoring on the vessel class concerned.
