With Class B AIS, you'll not only "see" AIS-equipped traffic, but be seen by them as well. Class B AIS systems allow recreational sail and power vessels, offshore racers, smaller commercial vessels, workboats and fishing vessels to increase their visibility even in extreme weather conditions or high-traffic environments. Additionally, Class B transponders can be used to generate a safety distress message to surrounding AIS equipment, including vessels, base-stations, and possibly SAR teams.

QUICK TIP: ACR and Comar Class B AIS can be configured and installed so that a switch will turn transmit off (as might sometimes be needed for commercial fishing, racing, or vessel security.) Even with transmit turned off the transponder still works as a full-time AIS and GPS receiver.

All sales of Class B Transponders are final. Once programmed with vessel MMSI, these units cannot be returned.
