NMEA2000 is becoming more and more popular on new boats and nearly all new chart plotters have an NMEA2000 interface with some models only providing an NMEA2000 interface. Hence with its reliability easy plug and play connectivity and industry standard compatibility it is not surprising why NMEA2000 is gradually replacing the older NMEA0183 standard. AISNode is an AIS receiver with NMEA 2000.

Our AIT2000 and AIT3000 Class B Transponders already provide NMEA2000 connectivity. However not all customers want the extra expense of purchasing and installing a transponder and for small chart plotters an AIS receiver is still a popular choice.

AISnode is the first AIS Receiver with NMEA 2000 that has been designed exclusively for this. With a single integral 0.75m NMEA2000 cable that takes power from the network and outputs the AIS data on to the network the AISnode is incredibly easy to install. Just find or fit a spare NMEA2000 “T Piece” screw the AISnode cable to the connection connect a VHF antenna and the installation is complete.

The AISnode utilises the same high performance true dual channel receiver that our latest Class B Transponders have. As a result it will receive every AIS equipped vessel within VHF range and never miss or drop a single target. All of the latest NMEA2000 AIS message types are supported. This includes AIS SARTs AtoNs and Class B static data. Therefore ensuring full compatibility with all of the latest AIS enabled chart plotters.

Simply connect the AISnode to a dedicated VHF/AIS antenna mounted on the stern rail. Or alternatively connect it to the main VHF antenna via a suitable splitter. The AISnode will then receive all AIS targets within range – typically up to 30nm (antenna/installation permitting).
