AIS Class B924 Transponder

AIS Class B924 Transponder with standard power (2W CSTDMA) is small, light-weight, yet delivers the very best AIS receive and transmit performance so you see more AIS information and targets at maximum range – all achieved with the least power consumption.

AIS Class B924 Transponder combines WiFi & Bluetooth for seamless wireless connectivity and AIS data streaming to any mobile device or PC as well as an integrated VHF antenna splitter which enables the transceiver to share your existing VHF antenna without any loss of performance. With built in intelligent connectivity, integrated next-generation GPS receiver and antenna and a unique FLEXI-FIT® bracket system, safe and secure installation is simple.
