Class A and Class B AIS (Automatic Identification System)

AIS is a technology used in marine navigation that allows ships to share vital information such as their position, speed, and course with other vessels and shore stations. In this blog post, we will be focusing on the differences between Class B and Class A AIS and how our company provides top-quality installation services.

Class B AIS is designed for smaller vessels and pleasure crafts that do not require a full Class A AIS system. It provides all the basic AIS functionalities, including the transmission of the vessel’s position, speed, and course. Class B AIS is also more affordable than Class A, making it a popular choice for recreational boaters.

On the other hand, Class A AIS is mandatory for all vessels over 300 gross tons and all passenger vessels. It provides advanced AIS functionalities such as collision avoidance, integration with other navigation systems, and a higher transmission rate. Class A AIS is also capable of sending and receiving messages to and from shore stations and other vessels.

We offer both Class B and Class A AIS systems from a suite of reputable and trusted brands in the marine industry. Our team of experts is well-versed in installing both types of AIS systems, ensuring that they are installed correctly and working efficiently. We use high-quality materials and equipment to ensure the longevity and reliability of the system.

Our installation services include a comprehensive survey of your vessel to determine the best location for the AIS transceiver and antennas. We also provide training on how to use the system and understand the data it provides. Our team of professionals is always available to provide technical support and assistance should any issues arise.

In conclusion, AIS is an essential component of modern marine navigation, and our company is dedicated to providing top-quality installation services for both Class B and Class A AIS systems. With our expertise, you can trust us to provide you with a system that meets your needs and ensures the safety of your vessel.
