WIDELINK-B600
AIS SOTMA CLASS B TRANSPONDER
WideLink B600S is a Class B AIS SOTDMA transponder. the latest evolution in AIS technology. Its 5W transmission power, higher signal rate and professional-quality time-division management make the B600s a more advanced product overall than the Class B AIS standard based on the classic CSTDMA system.
The unit contains 1 VHF transmitter. 2 AIS receivers on 2 VHF channels and 1 MCU with advanced software-defined radio technology.

The WideLink B600 converts NMEA 2000 instrument data into NMEA 0183 sentences. such as heading. speed. depth. temperature. wind. pressure. etc.
Thanks to the multiplexing function, sensor data as well as AIS and GPS information can be displayed on chart readers and PCs.
- Antenna connector GPS: TNC Female
- VHF antenna connector: SO-239 Female
- NMEA0183: 38400 (Default) and 4800
