I believe the "n" stands for networkable; as with a ipilot trolling motor (for example)

The only G3 models are the non-networkable (stand alone) Helix 7's.
All models with N are networkable via Ethernet.
Helix 12 CHIRP MEGA SI+ GPS G3N and G4N, 1198c SI, SOLIX 10 SI G3,
Helix 8 MEGA SI+ GPS G4N, SOLIX 12 SI and G3, MEGA 360, MEGA LIVE TL, RC-1

Other than it has Bluetooth I’m assuming Ethernet networking is connecting devices together to share data via an Ethernet cable. The units do not communicate with each other via Bluetooth. The ones with Bluetooth can link to smartphones and tablets to load data.
