What is AIS?
The Automatic Identification System (AIS) enhances safe navigation by exchanging critical navigational data with nearby
The system utilizes VHF broadcasts to handle information about nearby vessel traffic as well as
AIS data includes vessel’s name, position and course/speed over ground, allowing you to predict the course changes of other vessels. And since AIS targets are constantly visible even when
they are shrouded in fog, in darkness,
behind capes, river bends and other obstructions, this system helps you to avoid dangerous collisions.
sEnhances safe navigation by receiving critical navigation information from local
sVastly improves situational awareness in any weather conditions including dense fog, darkness, and congested waterways
sDual parallel channel, “Full Duplex” receiver design receives AIS contact messages up to 100% more often than dual channel “Multiplexing” receivers
sHigh sensitivity, synthesized receiver automatically switches between international and local AIS channels
sOptional amplified VHF splitter allows the use of a single antenna for VHF radio and AIS Receiver
sNetwork output to NavNet 3D/vx2 and PCs for added redundancy and installation flexibility
sSerial Output for integration with various radar and chart plotter systems
sAIS Viewer Software included for
