Quark QK-A026 Dual Channel Marine AIS Receiver with WiFi, NMEA & GPS antenna + 12V PSU This Combo pack includes an external GPS antenna and a 12V Universal PSU to power the QK-A026 unit. . Introduction QK-A026 is a compact dual channel, VHF AIS receiver and is able to receive information from both AIS frequencies simultaneously. It can also combine one external NMEA0813 (9.6kbps) data source with GPS and AIS messages. This single data stream is then transmitted synchronously via WiFi, USB and RS422. The marine Automatic Identification System (AIS) is a location and vessel information reporting system. It allows vessels equipped with AIS to automatically, and dynamically share and regularly update their position, speed, course and other information such as vessel identity with similarly equipped vessels. Position is derived from the Global Positioning System (GPS) and communication between vessels is by Very High Frequency (VHF) digital transmissions. There are a number of types of AIS device, like Class A transceivers, Class B transceivers, AIS base stations, Aids to Navigation (AtoN) and AIS receivers. Features Two independent receivers monitoring AIS channels (161.975MHz & 162.025MHz) and decoding both channels simultaneously Sensitivity down to -107 dBm@30% PER Up to 55 nautical miles receiving range USB 2.0 powered (<270mA @ 5.0V) NMEA-0183 message output through WiFi, USB and RS422 Built-in GPS to provide position data Combine NMEA input(9.6kpbs only), GPS and AIS messages and output as a seamless stream of data Compatible with Windows XP,7,8,10,Mac OS X, Linux systems In the box: QK-A026 AIS receiver WiFi Antenna GPS Antenna 12V Universal PSU Mini-USB to standard USB cable Mini-CD with Drivers and Application Note/User Instructions The 12V Universal PSU enables operation direct from the boat's 12V battery system.
