    MUXen

    A multidisciplinary team

    MUXen was born from the meeting of 3 companies in the Nantes region who combined their complementary know-how in electronics, programming and user interface to offer you mastered solutions from A to Z.

    The MUXen story

    In 2018, JPS Concept and L2C Tronic joined forces to build the multiplexed electrical distribution and management network for the new ARKEA PAPREC, alongside the electrical installations of WINDELO hybrid catamarans and the development of a Linux-based control interface. From this collaboration was born MUXen, which today brings together skills in system architecture, electronics, embedded software and user interface.

    Our design office — from architecture to delivery

    Drawing on Jean-Paul's experience, MUXen offers innovative architectures for onboard energy management combining performance, reliability and autonomy. Drawing on Clément's experience, MUXen built its networked management system on standards validated and proven in the automotive industry. Drawing on William and Jean-Noël's experience, MUXen bridges the field networks with user interfaces tailored to our customers' work. After defining the electrical and energy architecture, we produce our own schematics, our own electronic boards, our own embedded software, our own web control interfaces and our own data storage and processing tools.
