B&G boat chart plotter and Victron integration

Hi! I have a B&G Vulcan 12R MFD and would like to see data from my Victron network on this MFD. All I found so far is that this seems to work easily for B&G MFD´s having a RJ45 LAN socket. But my MFD only is connected via Wifi with my boat network. Within this Wifi I have a Raspi running with Victron OS. Is there a chance to integrate this?

I forgot to say: The B&G Vulcan 12R simply does not have a RJ45 LAN socket.

If you router has wifi, they should be able to see each other through that, right? Look up Node Red & Signal K on the Victron website, B&G can work with Signal K with a NMEA2000 interface.
