AIS Antenna
Technical details
Producer: Glomex (IT)

Compulsory since January 2005 for all ships above 300 tons and passengers vessels, AIS (Automatic Identification System) is becoming very popular for leisure vessels as a convenient device for collision avoidance especially in difficult weather conditions. Working via 2 dedicated VHF channels (161,975 Mhz and 162,025 Mhz), relying on global navigation positioning system (GPS) and digital communications, AIS enables all participants to receive information about traffic in their vicinity, providing real time inputs like: name, type of vessel, dimensions, position, course and speed. Glomex AIS Antenna can be applied both to power and sailing boats thanks to the exclusive Glomex mount, designed for vertical and horizontal orientation for mast or deck fixing. (Glomex)
