em-trak B951 Class B AIS Transceiver – 5W SOTDMA
Securing high-frequency position reports in crowded fairways, this em-trak B951 AIS transceiver broadcasts 5W SOTDMA data via an internal GPS/GLONASS receiver, distributing vessel coordinates over Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and NMEA 2000 at 0.88 lbs.
- 5W SOTDMA protocol delivers priority broadcasts
- Internal GPS/GLONASS engine ensures satellite lock
- Integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connect navigation apps
- IP67 waterproof casing survives wave washdowns
Upgrade AIS visibility with a compact 5W SOTDMA transponder using the em-trak B951 Class B AIS Transceiver. Its higher-power Class B transmission, internal GPS/GLONASS receiver, and flexible NMEA/USB/Wi-Fi/Bluetooth connections make it a strong fit for cruisers, sailboats, and workboats that want AIS target data on multiple compatible devices. Need more reporting capability than a standard 2W Class B unit without adding a display at the helm? The B951 uses dual-channel AIS reception, a dedicated DSC watch receiver, and an IP67 enclosure for protected marine installations.
Integration
The B951 needs a dedicated AIS/VHF antenna or approved splitter, programmed MMSI and vessel static data, and a compatible MFD, chartplotter, computer, or mobile device. It is not a VHF voice radio, radar, chartplotter, EPIRB, or collision-avoidance system.
5W SOTDMA Class B AIS can provide higher output and more structured time-slot access than conventional 2W CSTDMA Class B systems, but AIS data remains dependent on VHF reception and other vessels transmitting correctly. Not every boat, buoy, or hazard appears on AIS.
Before Ordering
Confirm Class B SOTDMA suitability, MMSI registration, AIS antenna or splitter requirements, GNSS antenna needs, compatible MFD/mobile-device integration, 12V/24V power, and desired network connections before ordering.
