With the SAILOR 6217 VHF DSC Class D AIS Receiver, you get the toughest professional VHF radio, combined with highly accurate AIS receive functionality.
This makes it a vital safety enhancing tool for workboats and fishing vessels operating in busy waterways, because you can be confident in your ability to communicate and the integrity of the AIS data you receive.
Dual parallel channel operation
Building on the SAILOR 6215 VHF DSC Class D, the SAILOR 6217 VHF DSC Class D AIS Receiver integrates a two channel parallel AIS Receiver, which enables it to perform a constant watch of both AIS channels, rather than switching between them. This provides greater safety through better situational awareness, because you get a seamlessly updated view of AIS equipped vessels in the surrounding area at all times. The SAILOR 6217 VHF DSC Class D AIS Receiver also has an increased 6 MHz receiving bandwidth. This ensures sufficient bandwidth to receive all AIS Class A transmitters that may transmit in the entire maritime VHF frequency range so you can be sure of your ability to receive AIS data from all commercial shipping within range.
Integration with existing systems
The SAILOR 6217 VHF DSC Class D AIS Receiver can be easily connected to any NMEA 0183 chart plotter so all signals can be viewed and plotted on a vessel’s existing equipment.
