The Connect 50 DCM is a more compact version of the NXT™ DCM unit, designed for small and less complex installations of the EmpirBus digital switching system. The Connect 50 unit has the durability and competence of the NXT DCM unit and delivers an excellent price/channel ratio without compromising on important features. The Connect 50 can also be integrated to work with other DCMs or main controllers in larger system installations if desired.

The outputs have been equipped with high accuracy current feedback, enabling real-time readings of the current consumption per channel. A new design of the NMEA 2000 ® network connection provides a galvanically isolated connection - without the need for a powered bus to the network. The power consumption from the bus is zero for the Connect 50 unit.

Connect 50 DCM comes standard with 11 input channels and 20 output channels. It can be equipped with ports for additional galvanically isolated CAN and user interface (optional).

Reverse polarity on 4 channels is standard for operating tables, windows, hatches, etc., as well as the option to operate and synchronize windshield wipers. For applications where more reverse polarity control is required, the Connect HPR™ distribution module offers 10 channels (18 A) that can drive functions such as trim tab actuators, motorized hatches, pumps, and more.
