Simrad V5043 Class A AIS Transceiver

Key benefits

Adding AIS to navigation enables spontaneous ship-to-ship or ship-to-shore recognition, greatly enhancing safety at sea. The system provides mariners with new levels of real-time information regarding traffic situations and the maneuvers of other AIS-enabled ships.

All-weather visibility

It assists with safe navigation in radar blind zones and makes it easy to establish contact with other ships via radio call signs on the display. It also allows sharing of AIS data for display by navigation systems such as the Simrad GN70, MX610, or MX612, and ECS/ECDIS including the Simrad E5000 series.

Powerful integrated system

The Simrad V5043 is a compact bracket or panel-mount unit featuring a larger, integrated 4.3-inch color LCD screen with a user-friendly interface.

Intuitive control

The V5043 can be configured and operated without any external display or controller, providing AIS information in basic-coastline, radar-style, alphanumeric, and satellite display modes.

Integration and compatibility

The V5043 ships with a junction box providing three bi-directional NMEA 0183 ports and NMEA 2000 bus for connection to multiple external sensors, such as heading and gyro. The V5043 also includes a complete pilot plug assembly for connection to a Personal Pilot Unit (PPU).
