- Ethernet? converter required?

It would have to be through some sort of serial/USB device. Which is why I suggest you just go straight from SeatalkNG to USB and use the C120 as an extra display somewhere. Take the C120 out of the equation.

I use this: https://www.yachtd.com/products/usb_gateway.html

But there are other options.

BTW, I have a C125 in my SeatalkNG bus. It does some great things, like run my radar and it's the primary GPS. I just don't use it to feed 0183 into anything. There's no need.
