    For new created wpts yes..you need connect both units by nmea 2000.. With your current wpts just transfer your wpts to the other units by a sd card.

    In general, though it is more complicated than that. You need 2 network Ts, 2 terminating resistors a cable to connect the Ts and then short cables to connect each unit to the network.

    You can get most of it as a Lowrance NMEA 2000 starter kit, but you'll need an extra short cable to connect the second unit.
