A high-performance dual-channel AIS receiver with USB, NMEA 0183, and Ethernet outputs. The R250E is a streamlined version of the R250, removing Wi-Fi for installations requiring only wired data output while maintaining the same flexible mounting and data integration options.
The Comar R250E is a compact AIS receiver tailored for reliable wired integration. It decodes all AIS targets in range and provides continuous NMEA 0183 data over USB, serial, and Ethernet outputs, suitable for PC navigation, chartplotters, and server-based monitoring systems.
Plug-and-play USB connectivity powers the device directly from a PC. When powered by a DC supply, the R250E outputs data over USB, NMEA 0183 serial, and Ethernet simultaneously, offering flexible deployment options for commercial and recreational vessels.
An external GPS NMEA 0183 input can be multiplexed with AIS data, allowing both AIS targets and position data to be sent together on a single stream — ideal for navigation systems requiring both inputs.
Does the R250E include Wi-Fi?No. The R250E is Ethernet and USB only — no wireless interface.
Can I use it with a chartplotter?Yes. It outputs NMEA 0183 over serial and Ethernet for use with navigation systems.
Is it powered by USB?Yes. It can be powered from USB or a DC supply for full output.
