Description

The AIT5000 Class B+ AIS Transponder utilizes SOTDMA format transmissions which offers a 5W power output, guaranteeing a time slot for transmission in busy traffic areas and faster update rates depending upon the speed of your vessel.

Features:

  • Class B+ 5W SOTDMA AIS transponder with GPS/GLONASS positioning
  • Integrated ZeroLoss VHF-AIS antenna splitter (shares the VHF antenna)
  • Beneficial for ocean going vessels or boats traveling above 15 knots
  • SOTDMA technology guarantees a time slot for an AIS transmission
  • 5W Power output - 2.5x more powerful than a regular Class B
  • Wireless interface for tablets, smartphones and PC
  • Multiple NMEA 0183 in/out and multiplex capability
  • NMEA 2000 connectivity
  • USB connectivity for PC/MAC
  • Remote TX silence switch option (Sold separately)
  • Supplied with GPS antenna
  • Options include AIS SART Alarm (AIS Lifeguard)

Note on SOTDMA Technology:

Class B+ is a new generation of AIS functionality based on SOTDMA (self organized TMDA) messaging rather than the simpler CSTDMA (carrier sense TDMA). It guarantees your AIS transmission will get a time slot, even in areas of very high traffic density. It also specifies a 5W transmission power (compared with 2W for Class B) and a transmission rate that increases as the vessel moves faster. The transmission rate is fixed at every 30 seconds when the vessel is moving with regular Class B protocol. It is therefore ideal for ocean sailors requiring the best possible performance and future proof satellite tracking applications, fast power boats and smaller non-mandated commercial vessels.

Questions

Does this support bi-directional wi-fi NMEA data with iOS apps such as iNavX and Aquamaps? Both of these offer a "repeat to Autopilot" feature which allow goto route or waypoint data to be sent from the iOS app to the boat's AP via wi-fi.

Asked by: JimSails
Hello, This unit supports NMEA 2000, NMEA 0183 and Wireless interface for tablets, smartphones and PC. You would want to check with your software provider to confirm compatibility with their software.
