GpsGate Splitter vs Virtual Serial Port Driver

GpsGate Splitter

Description: GpsGate Splitter is a software program used to split and distribute GPS data from a single GPS source to multiple applications or devices. It acts as a gateway to take NMEA or binary GPS data and send it out via multiple serial ports, TCP/IP connections, and UDP data streams.

Type: software

Virtual Serial Port Driver

Description: A virtual serial port driver is a piece of software that creates virtual COM ports to establish connections between devices and applications. It enables establishing serial connections without requiring physical ports and cables.

Type: software
