B&G/Lowrance/Simrad V3100 Class B AIS
The B&G/Lowrance/Simrad V3100 Class B AIS incorporates SOTDMA technology and increased transmission power to enhance transmission frequency, reliability, and range compared to standard Class B AIS. This black-box solution integrates with B&G/Lowrance/Simrad displays, and features industry-standard connectivity.
Increased Transmission Frequency and Reliability
The B&G/Lowrance/Simrad V3100 Class B AIS incorporates the same SOTDMA technology found in Class A solutions. This self-organising transmission technology allows the system to negotiate a regular transmission timeslot with other AIS units in range, facilitating more frequent and reliable position updates in high-traffic areas. The B&G/Lowrance/Simrad V3100 transmits updates, based on vessel speed, up to once every five seconds; this provides up to six times the reporting frequency of standard Class B AIS.
Increased Transmission Range
The B&G/Lowrance/Simrad V3100 features a maximum transmission power of 5 Watts. This allows vessels equipped with the B&G/Lowrance/Simrad V3100 to be detected over AIS at a greater range, and provides more reliable transmission to satellite-based AIS receivers.
Integrated Black-Box Solution
This black box AIS solution is designed to work with B&G/Lowrance/Simrad multifunction displays, and other NMEA 2000 or NMEA 0183 connected marine electronics. Output to a standard PC is also supported via USB connectivity. The V3100 is contained in a compact IP67 water-resistant housing, and includes a built-in SD card slot for standalone AIS data logging.
