Quark QK-A027 Dual Channel Marine AIS Receiver with WiFi, NMEA, SeaTalk interface & GPS antenna This Combo pack includes an external GPS antenna. . Introduction QK-A027 is a compact dual channel, VHF AIS receiver and is able to receive information from both AIS frequencies simultaneously. It can also combine one external Raymarine SeaTalk1 data source with GPS and AIS messages. This single data stream is then transmitted synchronously via WiFi, USB and RS422. The marine Automatic Identification System (AIS) is a location and vessel information reporting system. It allows vessels equipped with AIS to automatically, and dynamically share and regularly update their position, speed, course and other information such as vessel identity with similarly equipped vessels. Position is derived from the Global Positioning System (GPS) and communication between vessels is by Very High Frequency (VHF) digital transmissions. There are a number of types of AIS device, like Class A transceivers, Class B transceivers, AIS base stations, Aids to Navigation (AtoN) and AIS receivers. The QK-A027 is powered by an external 12V source (e.g. SeaTalk bus) and with its integrated GPS receiver makes installation even simpler. Features Two independent receivers monitoring AIS channels (161.975MHz & 162.025MHz) and decoding both channels simultaneously Sensitivity down to -105 dBm@30% PER Up to 40 nautical miles receiving range Powered by SeaTalk bus or other external 12V supply (<120mA) NMEA-0183 message output through WiFi, USB and RS422 Built-in GPS to provide position data SeaTalk1 to NMEA 0183 protocol converter Combine SeaTalk1 input, GPS and AIS messages and output as a seamless stream of data In the box: QK-A027 AIS receiver WiFi Antenna GPS Antenna Mini-USB to standard USB cable Mini-CD with Drivers and Application Note/User Instructions Note: VHF antenna and suitable AIS display program are not supplied.
