AIS 800 transponder

AIS 800

Its 5W transmission power enables it to generate very fast position reports like no other product.

The Garmin AIS features an integrated VHF antenna splitter, so both the VHF and the AIS receiver have a single antenna. It also features a GPS with external antenna and integrates perfectly with your on-board Garmin system.

Its NMEA2000/0183 connectivity also lets you integrate with compatible multifunction displays and plotters. Its small size saves space in your installation.

WHAT IS AIS?

AIS is a communication system that transmits information via a transmitter to other vessels also equipped with a receiver. The information sent is :

• Course
• Speed
• Its characteristics
• Position via GPS connection
• The ship's identity, thanks to its MMSI number and name

With AIS, you can obtain information, identify and contact the vessels around you. You can also spot vessels invisible to the naked eye and sail peacefully.

RECEIVER OR TRANSPONDER?

It's advisable to use an AIS transponder for longer voyages, for greater vigilance and safety on board.

For those who don't sail much, we still advise you to equip yourself with an AIS receiver so you're always safe when you're at sea.
