B&G H5000 Graphic Display

Description

The B&G H5000 Graphic Display is a compact sailing instrument for showing data from an H5000 system or NMEA 2000 network. Its 5-inch color screen gives the helm a dedicated place for wind, heading, performance, and navigation information, leaving the main chartplotter free for charts. It is a sailing instrument display, not a standalone GPS chartplotter or fishfinder.

The 480 x 272 optically bonded screen runs at 1200 nits, so it is designed to remain readable when sunlight is reflecting off the water. One NMEA 2000 connection carries the data, and the average 2.2W draw is modest for a 12V instrument panel. The H5000 system remains central to the display’s capabilities; without compatible network data, the screen cannot create the sailing pages on its own. IPX7 protection suits cockpit mounting.

Key Features

• 5-inch optically bonded color LCD – Provides a compact high-visibility display for sailing data.
• 480 x 272 resolution – Shows instrument pages clearly in a small panel.
• 1200-nit brightness – Helps maintain readability in bright cockpit conditions.
• H5000 system compatibility – Allows the display to show data calculated by the B&G sailing network.
• NMEA 2000 connection – Links the display to compatible instruments and sensors.

Who Is This For?

This high-performance sailing instrument suits racing yachts, cruising sailboats, and B&G H5000 systems that need another data display. It is not ideal as a standalone chartplotter or fishfinder because it depends on network data and has no charting functions.

Compatibility

Confirmed compatibility includes B&G H5000 systems, NMEA 2000 through one port, and compatible network sailing data. The supplied information does not identify specific wind sensors, autopilots, radar, Garmin, Raymarine, Simrad, or NMEA 0183 compatibility. No named incompatible system was provided; verify the H5000 network and instrument data requirements before installation.

The H5000 Graphic Display is useful when a performance sailing boat needs important data repeated where the crew can see it. Its trade-off is system dependence: the display is only as capable as the H5000 and NMEA 2000 data feeding it. Choose it for a B&G performance network, not as an independent navigation instrument.
