Description
Overview Furuno FA50 Class B AIS Transceiver
Furuno FA50 Class B AIS Transceiver is a compact black-box AIS unit that transmits your vessel identity and receives traffic data from surrounding AIS-equipped vessels and shore stations. It is built to improve vessel identification and day-to-day traffic awareness in busy waterways, at night, and in reduced visibility.
The unit combines a 12-channel all-in-view GPS receiver with dual-parallel TDMA VHF channels and supports connection to compatible bridge electronics. It is intended for operators who want AIS data sharing and target monitoring without adding a large display at the helm.
Key Features
- Class B AIS transmission and reception: Helps other vessels see your identity while you monitor surrounding AIS traffic.
- 12-channel internal GPS: Provides position, course, and speed data needed for reliable AIS broadcasting.
- Dual-parallel VHF channels: Supports continuous AIS reception across the required frequencies.
- Bridge system integration: Works with compatible plotters, radars, and PC software for a clearer traffic picture.
- Practical data output: Supports both static vessel data and dynamic navigation data for routine operations.
Applications
Ideal for coastal cruising, workboats, and offshore vessels that need clearer traffic awareness, collision-avoidance support, and AIS visibility when operating near shipping lanes or port approaches.
