The Raymarine AIS250 Receiver module is a “listen only” AIS receiver that easily integrates with an existing VHF antenna using a built in VHF splitter. The AIS250 then interfaces to Raymarine multifunction displays, allowing AIS targets to be graphically overlaid in both the chartplotter and radar modes.
Features
- Monitoring of class A and B AIS broadcasts
- Overlay AIS targets on Raymarine multifunction displays in both chartplotter
and radar modes
- AIS target tracking enhances your situational awareness by monitoring a target’s name, course, speed, and navigation status
- Reconcile AIS targets with radar targets for added safety
- Built-in VHF/FM antenna splitter. No additional antenna required
- Two NMEA 0183 inputs (1 @38,400 and 1 @ 4800 bps)
- Two NMEA 0183 output ports (1 @38,400 and 1 @ 4800 bps)
- Built-in multiplexer enables C or E-Series to receive both AIS data and one other NMEA 0183 data source through a single port.
