The SR162G has all of the features of the SR162 but also includes an integrated GPS and an external GPS antenna.

The SR162 can be used with computer-based navigation solutions using a standard RS232 serial port interface. It is not designed to be used with most chart plotters (such as Raymarine C,  E and G Series).  If you need an AIS solution for use with a chart plotter, please consider one of our NMEA-compatible AIS receivers or any of our AIS transponders.

• Full time dual channel receiver
• Able to receive AIS information from both AIS channels simultaneously
• High-sensitivity AIS data reception
• Line of sight reception similar to marine VHF reception distances
• Very low power consumption
• Receives AIS Class A and Class B vessel reports
• Sends information to a PC via a serial interface
• Ability to track and display information on multiple targets
• Easy installation: connect a VHF antenna (not included), 12 volt DC power and a serial cable to your PC
• Can be used with your existing VHF marine radio antenna with an appropriate splitter
• Can an be used to consolidate incoming NMEA positional data from a GPS into a combined high-speed data stream on a single serial port.
