Obudowa black box GPSMAP® 8700

The GPSMAP 8700 Black Box is a high-performance central processing unit designed for complex marine navigation systems. Unlike chartplotters with integrated displays, this unit has no screen and serves as the central hub for managing data, video, and other advanced features. It offers maximum flexibility to connect multiple external displays and centralize the management of your entire navigation and monitoring system.

The GPSMAP 8700 Black Box supports integration with various cameras:

Garmin network cameras, such as the Garmin GC 14 and GC 200 models.FLIR M and MD series network cameras.Other compatible third-party network cameras.It allows video streams to be displayed on all Garmin Marine network displays.

For optimal network performance, Garmin recommends not transmitting more than five video sources simultaneously. You can configure combined displays to show multiple videos at once.

Yes, using a Garmin PoE isolation coupler (part number 010-10580-10) is required to connect any standard Ethernet device (such as a network camera, network switch, or PoE injector) to a Garmin marine network. This prevents damage to the chartplotter.

The GPSMAP 8700 Black Box supports several camera tracking features, provided the appropriate sensors and cameras are connected:

Compass Lock: keeps the camera fixed on a heading relative to the compass.Vessel Lock: locks the camera at a fixed angle relative to the vessel.Slew-to-cue (AIS, MARPA or waypoint tracking): allows the camera to follow specific targets.

To support compass and vessel lock functions, you must connect the following to the Garmin Marine or NMEA 2000 network:

A marine camera compatible with tracking (e.g., a recent FLIR IP video camera). A GPS antenna. A heading sensor (a 9-axis heading sensor providing yaw, pitch, and roll data is recommended for optimal performance). For AIS and MARPA target tracking, a compatible AIS receiver and a compatible radar device are also required.

Connecting a PoE device directly to a Garmin marine chartplotter without using a Garmin PoE isolation coupler (part number 010-10580-10) will damage the Garmin chartplotter and may also damage the PoE device itself. The isolation coupler is essential for protecting your equipment.
