Digital Yacht AIT5000 AIS Class B+ Wifi and Splitter External GPS Antenna

The Digital Yacht AIT5000 AIS Class B+ Wifi and Splitter External GPS Antenna is a marine-grade automatic identification system transceiver built for serious boaters and commercial operators who demand reliable vessel tracking and collision avoidance on the water. This Class B+ transponder integrates GPS and GLONASS positioning into a single compact unit, eliminating the need for separate systems and streamlining your helm setup. Whether you're cruising coastal waters, navigating busy shipping lanes, or operating a commercial charter, the AIT5000 provides the situational awareness that keeps you and your crew safe.

At its core, the AIT5000 delivers 5W transmit power—well above standard Class B units—ensuring your position reaches other vessels and shore stations across extended distances even in challenging RF environments. The integrated and patented ZeroLoss VHF-AIS antenna splitter is the key innovation here: it allows you to run both AIS and your VHF radio from a single antenna without signal degradation, eliminating the expense and complexity of dual antenna installations on smaller vessels. Built-in Wi-Fi connectivity lets you monitor target traffic and your own transponder status directly from your smartphone, chartplotter, or navigation software in real time. The combination of GPS/GLONASS dual-constellation positioning ensures accuracy and redundancy, critical when precision matters in navigation and compliance reporting.

Cruising sailors, fishing captains, and commercial operators will appreciate the AIT5000's ability to simplify antenna topside work while delivering professional-grade performance. Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable with basic marine electronics—the external GPS antenna mounts where you have clear sky view, and the splitter connects directly to your existing VHF antenna feedline. The 5W Class B+ rating meets international maritime regulations and ensures compliance for vessels operating in regulated waters. If you're upgrading from an older Class A unit or adding AIS to a vessel that previously relied on passive radar, this unit delivers the transmit power and integrated GPS accuracy that transforms your situational awareness on the helm.
