The AIS700 from Raymarine is a Class B Automatic Identification System (AIS) transceiver designed for use with Raymarine multifunction navigation display systems.
As a Class B AIS transceiver, the AIS700 not only receives broadcasts from other vessels, it also transmits your own boat’s information too helping you to be seen on other vessels’ systems.
Features
- Full transmit and receive AIS for enhanced situational awareness and safety.
- Latest SO-TDMA networking for longer range and faster performance.
- Built-in antenna splitter simplifies installation with existing VHF radio antenna.
- NMEA2000, NMEA0183, PC and SeaTalkng Compatible.
- Software or hardware switchable Silent Mode for enhanced security when needed.
