VHF RT1050 AIS

A LARGE, EASY-TO-USE SCREEN

Use the huge 100 x 55 mm touchscreen of the VHF RT 1050 AIS. This device offers excellent visibility and brightness, even in direct sunlight. The VHF RT 1050 AIS is easy and intuitive to use.

It's very easy to select the many functions available on the device, thanks to small icons specific to the information circulating on the NMEA 2000 network.

You'll find information on wind direction and strength, as well as parameters for optimizing sail trim.

What's more, the NMEA 2000 standard lets you communicate with your marine equipment and manage your main navigation instruments (GPS, sounder, windvane, anemometer, log....). Unlike the NMEA 0183 standard, the NMEA 2000 standard enables high-speed links between devices.

AN INTEGRATED AIS RECEIVER

The fixed VHF RT1050 AIS features a dual-channel AIS receiver to monitor the position of nearby AIS -equipped vessels, helping you avoid collisions in crowded harbors and waterways. There are two collision alarms, TCPA & CPA.

Information from AIS can be displayed on the VHF's built-in screen. They can also be broadcast to your GPS chart or compatible radar display via the NMEA connection.

Finally, it features MOB compatibility AIS (EIPRB & SART AIS). This makes it possible to receive a distress signal from a person with a personal distress beacon.

A SMART HANDSET

This smart handset allows you to access the shortcut channel 9/16. You also have the possibility to change the power from 1W to 25W.

You can add an external GPS antenna to considerably improve GPS reception and position.
