History

Invented several years ago by Peter Uddén and Sven Linnman the revolutionary 12/24 Volt digital communications and two-wire power technology system (Capi2) provides reduction of cabling, more flexibility and more safety.

Development and production of the system components take place in Sweden and assembly, sales and marketing are carried out in the south of the Netherlands. Here other leading companies, such as Royal Philips, ASML, DAF Trucks, FEI, NXP, OTB, and TNO, surround Capi2 Nederland BV. In a short time span the new system has drawn world wide drawn attention in the marine leisure business world.
