CAN bus keypads

Blink Marine are experts in CAN bus keypads. With 4 to 15 button layouts, rotary dials and the steering-wheel Race Pad, they are the perfect partner for a Hardwire PDM.

Why a CAN keypad?

Compared with a traditional switch panel, a CAN keypad is smaller, more reliable and far more capable, and it only needs two wires.
