GME AISR120 AIS Dual Channel Receiver

Keep in touch

Perfect for boaters who need an AIS message receiver only, the
GME AISR120 AIS Dual Channel Receiver incorporates
two ultra-sensitive receivers coupled to a sophisticated processor
with RMax technology. Ideally suited for installation on leisure
boats where collision avoidance is the primary concern, the AISR120
can be interfaced to a PC, notebook, or GME chartplotter for
greater situational awareness.

The AISR120 will receive both static and dynamic information from
both AIS class A and B equipped vessels, aids to navigation and
base stations that are within VHF range. The AISR120 can use either
a dedicated AIS antenna, or share the vessel’s existing VHF antenna
via the AISS120 VHF antenna splitter.

Automatic Identification System
One of the most important safety features and fastest growth areas
in marine Navigation is AIS – Automatic Identification System. This
collision avoidance technology is particularly valuable to boaters
who regularly travel or fish in busy waterways or near major
shipping routes. Having an operating AIS transponder onboard will
turn your boat into a visible radio beacon indicating your speed,
course and identity to other AIS equipped vessels or base
stations.

An AIS receiver will allow you to track other AIS traffic in the
area and identify ‘Aids to Navigation’ (AtoN) even when not visibly
by sight. You’ll no longer be inhibited by limitations like
‘inline-of-site’ radar. Unlike radar, AIS allows you to ‘see’ other
AIS equipped craft behind obstructions like islands and land masses
or hidden behind another vessel, and is equally effective in fog or
darkness. AIS information is displayed on dedicated AIS screens or
AIS compatible Chartplotters.

AIS Receivers
AIS receivers collect the transmissions from AIS Radios, base
stations and aids to navigation displaying them on compatible
chartplotters or dedicated displays. An AIS receiver does not
transmit information about your vessel and is used to provide you
with situational awareness of other traffic and hazards in the
area.
