Digital Yacht AIT5000 Class B+ 5W Transponder w/Splitter & WiFi

The Digital Yacht AIT5000 Class B+ 5W Transponder with Splitter and WiFi is a compact AIS Class B+ transceiver designed for vessels requiring reliable vessel tracking and identification on the water. This 5-watt unit delivers the transmission power and receiver sensitivity demanded by serious recreational and commercial boaters who depend on AIS for collision avoidance, fleet management, and emergency position reporting.

The AIT5000 combines dual-channel simultaneous reception with integrated WiFi connectivity, enabling real-time AIS data distribution to compatible chartplotters, navigation tablets, and network-connected devices throughout your vessel. The included splitter allows connection to existing VHF antenna systems without requiring additional antenna installation, simplifying integration into established helm setups. At 5.6 pounds with compact dimensions of 9 x 4 x 13 inches, the unit fits easily in tight marine electronics cabinets or below-deck installations typical of center consoles, cruising sailboats, and offshore fishing vessels.

This transceiver serves weekend anglers checking commercial traffic near fishing grounds, cruising sailboat operators maintaining awareness in busy shipping lanes, and offshore tournament fishermen coordinating multi-boat operations. The Class B+ classification meets international AIS transmission standards while operating within recreational vessel power regulations. FCC programming by a qualified technician is required for all units sold in the US; a completed programming form, MMSI registration or FCC Ship Station License, and vessel owner signature must be submitted at purchase. Digital Yacht AIT5000 Class B+ 5W Transponder systems are recognized for reliable long-range vessel identification in saltwater and freshwater environments.
