Furuno FA170 AIS System Class A IMO Approved

The Furuno FA170 AIS System Class A IMO Approved is a maritime-grade automatic identification system designed for commercial vessels, naval operations, and coastal security applications requiring real-time vessel traffic awareness. Built to International Maritime Organization (IMO) standards, this Class A transponder enables operators to monitor AIS-equipped ships, coastal stations, and aids to navigation within VHF coverage areas.

The FA170 features a 4.3" color LCD display that clearly renders target data, vessel headings, course information, and navigation aids in real-time. The integrated AIS transponder continuously broadcasts vessel identity, position, and motion data while simultaneously receiving transmissions from other AIS-equipped vessels, enabling both inbound and outbound target tracking.

Professionals in naval operations, port security, and coast guard services rely on this system to maintain situational awareness in high-traffic waterways. The system interfaces seamlessly with ECDIS (Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems), radar systems, and other bridge navigation equipment, consolidating critical maritime data into a unified operational picture.
