Vesper® XB-8000 or WatchMate Vision with Raymarine a,c,e Series MFD
The XB-8000 and WatchMate Vision® are fully compatible with all the newer a,c, and e-series Raymarine MFDs. They are a direct replacement for the Raymarine AIS650.

For an NMEA 2000 network, connect the XB-8000 or WatchMate Vision directly to it and use the SeaTalk-ng to DeviceNet adapter cable to connect the MFD as shown in this diagram:
