Transas AIS Class B Transponder

The Transas Automatic Identification System (AIS) Class B receiver and transmitter unit is low cost, but high performance product designed specially for the fishing vessels, passenger ships, coastguard, leisure and workboats.
The compact AIS Class B unit is suitable for a variety of applications within the AIS environment. Certified, well-proven technology ensures users of the reliability and quality which has become the hallmark of Transas in today’s fast moving marine industry.
AIS Class B can be connected to any NMEA compatible chart plotter or suitably configured PC or PDA for graphically display of AIS targets.
The Safety Related Message button enables the user to transmit a distress alert to all vessels and base stations within range.
AIS Class B includes an integral GPS module to facilitate ease of installation and use. AIS Class B device can be configured to operate in receive only mode with the transmitter disabled.
Fitting an AIS Class B device ensures you are seen by other AIS equipped vessels. AIS and radar can be fused to create effective and efficient coastal tracking, surveillance and safety systems. As part of a suitably configured network, AIS enables owners to be alerted to unauthorized vessel movements. Also compatible with ECDIS, ECS and RADAR if they support Class B targets.
