Vesper Cortex-M1 SOTDMA AIS Transponder with Remote Vessel Monitoring - 010-02815-20

The Cortex M1 hub combines advanced collision avoidance technology with proactive alerting plus remote monitoring and control of onboard systems from your compatible smartphone.

This is the updated version of the Vesper Cortex M1 Hub (part number: 100131)

Features:

• A high-speed smartAIS transponder transmits your boat's location and heading and proactively warns of certain collision threats
• In addition to collision alerts, smartAIS will trigger alarms for anchor drag or man overboard situations
• This hub comes VHF-ready. Simply add a Cortex handset (not included, sold separately) for full VHF radio capability
• Cortex apps let you monitor boat systems, receive alerts and remotely control devices from your compatible smartphone
• A GPIO port and supplied cable allow you to monitor bilge pumps, security sensors, shore power and more
• NMEA 2000 networking allows you to view Cortex data on your connected MFDs and chartplotters
