What is BS EN 61162-2 - Maritime navigation and radiocommunication equipment and systems about?
BS EN 61162 discusses maritime navigation and radiocommunication equipment and systems. The intention of BS EN 61162 series is to facilitate safe inter-operability and support the functionality required by modern systems and equipment, thereby satisfying the needs of ship owners, operators, manufacturers, yards and regulatory bodies.
BS EN 61162-2 is second part of BS EN 61162 series of the standards that contains the requirements for data communication between maritime electronic instruments, navigation and radiocommunication equipment when interconnected via an appropriate interface.
The electrical definitions in BS EN 61162-2 are intended to accommodate higher data rates than are specified in IEC 61162-1. Since there is no provision for guaranteed delivery of messages and only limited error-checking capability, this standard should be used with caution in all safety applications.
