Thanks to next-generation Rmax AIS technology, the delivers lightning-fast processing to maximize reception range and ensure that all incoming AIS messages are received and fully decoded in real time. This overcomes performance issues with first-generation AIS systems in real-world marine situations - and the advantages of Rmax technology will become even more important as the number of AIS-equipped vessels increases in the future. Designed for plug-and-play integration with chartplotters, radars, onboard PCs, and other marine electronics, the Metadata Dual-Channel AIS Receiver has built-in NMEA0183 and NMEA2000 interfaces, as well as a USB interface that can be used to power the device. The compact receiver module is waterproof to IPX7 standards for flexible location and rugged performance in any marine environment.
