Digital Yacht AISnode NMEA 2000 Boat AIS Class B Receiver

AISnode NMEA 2000 Boat AIS Class B Receiver

AISnode is the first AIS Receiver to be designed exclusively for NMEA 2000. With a single, integral 0.75m NMEA 2000 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 NMEA 2000 "T Piece", screw the AISnode cable to the connection, connect a VHF antenna and the installation is complete.

Utilizing the same high performance, true dual channel receiver that our latest Class B Transponders have, AISnode will receive every AIS equipped vessel within VHF range and never miss or drop a single target. All of the latest NMEA 2000 AIS message types are supported, including AIS SARTs, AtoNs and Class B static data, ensuring full compatibility with all of the latest AIS enabled chart plotters.

NMEA 2000 is becoming more and more popular on new boats and nearly all new chart plotters have an NMEA 2000 interface, with one or two models only providing an NMEA 2000 interface. With its reliability, easy plug and play connectivity and industry standard compatibility, it is not surprising why NMEA 2000 is gradually replacing the older NMEA0183 standard.

The AIT2000 and AIT3000 Class B Transponders already provide NMEA 2000 connectivity but 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.

The Digital Yacht AISnode NMEA 2000 Boat AIS Class B Receiver is designed for seamless integration with modern marine navigation systems. It features a single, integral 0.75-meter NMEA 2000 cable that simplifies installation by drawing power directly from your network and outputting AIS data onto the same network. This plug-and-play setup allows for quick and straightforward installation—simply connect the AISnode to a spare NMEA 2000 T-piece, attach your VHF antenna, and your system is ready to monitor nearby vessels. This innovative design minimizes the need for additional components and reduces installation time, making it ideal for both new boats and retrofit applications.

Equipped with a high-performance, true dual-channel receiver, the AISnode ensures reliable reception of all AIS-equipped vessels within VHF range. It supports all current NMEA 2000 AIS message types, including AIS SARTs, Aids to Navigation (AtoNs), and Class B static data, ensuring comprehensive compatibility with the latest chart plotters and navigation systems. Its advanced receiver technology guarantees that no target is missed or dropped, providing users with real-time situational awareness essential for safe boating. As NMEA 2000 becomes increasingly popular on new vessels, the AISnode offers a cost-effective and reliable solution for integrating AIS data into your existing marine electronics setup.

Many modern chart plotters now feature NMEA 2000 interfaces, and the AISnode complements these systems by providing dedicated AIS reception without the need for a transponder. While transponders like the AIT2000 and AIT3000 offer full NMEA 2000 connectivity, the AISnode provides a more affordable option for boaters who primarily need AIS data input for navigation and collision avoidance. Its industry-standard compatibility and straightforward, plug-and-play design make it a preferred choice for boat owners seeking reliable AIS reception with minimal hassle.
