yeah i looked it up, nmea 2000 is using CAN (controller area network).
it's basically a juiced up rs-232 type of interface, a serial interface
capable of higher speeds and has some addressing in it. from a
development point of view circuits just replace their serial UART with
a CAN interface device and go about their business, with some added
software complexity. anyway ... whatever ... it's still a very simple
interface with simple wiring, TX and RX, and you're still going to have
pay attention to RFI, same as rs-232.

The above should be ignored because it is utter nonsense. Sorry to say it
this way but that's how it is.
