NBDP Modems - Navigation and Communication
NBDP modems are marine narrow-band direct-printing terminals used with MF/HF radiotelephone equipment for text-based ship-to-ship and ship-to-shore communication. They support radiotelex services, particularly on GMDSS-equipped vessels where available.
ProShipWorks provides end-to-end support to source and supply NBDP Modems for marine vessels, ship operators, industrial facilities, maintenance teams and procurement departments.
