Adding an Axiom MFD(s) to a network featuring C/E-Series Widescreen MFDs

Unfortunately, C/E-Series Widescreen MFDs (C90W, C120W, E90W, E120W, E140W) may not be interfaced to an Ethernet (SeaTalkhs/RayNet) network which also features an Axiom MFD(s). While it is possible to interface the Axiom MFD(s) to a common SeaTalkng backbone to which the C/E-Series Widescreen MFDs have also been interfaced, communications between the Axiom MFDs and C/E-Series would be limited to alphanumeric, GPS, instrument, navigational, and system status data between these systems. Correspondingly, it is not possible for C/E-Series Widescreen MFDs to share graphical data such as cartography, radar, fishfinder, or Sirius Marine Weather with an Axiom MFD.

Should full functionality dual station or multi-station capability be desired, then it would be necessary to replace the C/E-Series Widescreen MFDs with a complete suite of Axiom MFDs/Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFDs or complete suite of a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFD. Any combination Axiom/Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFDs may be installed within an Ethernet network to permit sharing of all data an resources among the networked MFDs. Similarly, any combination ofa/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFDs may be installed within an Ethernet network to permit sharing of all data an resources (except NTSC/PAL video) among the networked MFDs.
