Overview
See and be seen with the Raymarine AIS500 Transceiver module. Receive AIS
targets and transmit your vessel information to other AIS receivers. The AIS500
easily interfaces to Raymarine multifunction displays allowing AIS targets to be
graphically overlaid in both chartplotter and radar modes.
Operating in the VHF maritime band, the AIS500 system includes a built-in VHF
splitter, to easily integrate with your existing VHF antenna on the boat (no
need for a separate antenna). The AIS500 enables the wireless exchange of
navigation status between vessels and shore-side traffic monitoring centers.
Commercial ships, ocean going vessels and other boats equipped with AIS
transmitters broadcast AIS messages that include the vessel’s name, course,
speed, and current navigation status.
