Class A AIS to Wi-Fi Interface
PilotLINK 2 allows Class A transponders to interface with the latest range of mobile devices including iPhones, tablets and PCs/MACs. Applications range from maritime pilots through to survey ship charter users who may want access to the ship's AIS and GPS data.
Key Features
Over 100,000 Class A AIS systems installed
on vessels globally.
While the latest Class A AIS transponders already have a wireless interface for iPad and tablet connectivity, the majority of vessels have an AIS transponder with either an integral or externally wired "Pilot Plug" interface. This IMO standard multi pin design allows NMEA AIS and GPS data to be easily accessed by pilots, delivery captains, etc. via a wired connection to their personal PC based ECDIS system. However, more and more captains now choose to use an iPad or tablet so need wireless connectivity.
