and properly terminated. Such a bus provides network connection
nodes at various locations around your boat.
This is similar to the telephone wiring in a house. If you pick up a
phone in your living room, you can hear someone talking into the phone
in the bedroom.
Network Nodes
A network bus is built of network nodes spread along a backbone.
Network nodes are made by fitting T-shaped connectors into the
backbone (using the sockets on the sides), and attaching a display unit or
sensor at the bottom of the T.
Using our telephone example, the T connectors are similar to telephone
jacks. The backbone is like the phone wiring running through a house.
Phones in a house must be connected to each other to communicate, and
in the same way only sensors and display units plugged into the NMEA
network can share information.
Connections found in the middle of the bus will have one or more of these
T-shaped connectors with the backbone cables plugged into both sides.
Connections at the end of a network will have the backbone plugged into
one side, and a terminator plugged into the other, as shown in the
following figure.

Adding a Network Node
You can add a node anywhere along the network backbone where a
connection already exists. This connection could be at the end of the
network (between a T connector and a terminator), between two T
connectors, between a T connector and a backbone extension cable, or
between two extension cables. Wherever you want to add the new node,
simply separate the sockets of the old connection and attach your new T
connector between them.
