Very compact and easy to install with built-in mounting flanges.

Antenne vhf Patch#

Uses standard PL-259 patch cables (two 2m (6.5ft) cable are now included). No adapters or special patch cords needed for VHF/AIS. Very low power consumption designed to save your battery power. The SP160 provides amplification to the AIS signal resulting in much higher AIS sensitivity, improving AIS receive range. NOTE : The SP160 now includes two VHF cables (one to go to the AIS device, one to go to your VHF radio) so an additional VHF cable is no longer required. However, for an optimized AIS and VHF antenna system, choose our AIS antenna designed to be shared with VHF radios.

You can use this splitter with an existing antenna installation that is in good operating condition. This Vesper Marine splitter is specifically designed for use with both AIS receivers and transponders. This is an excellent solution when it is difficult to install an additional antenna or you wish to share an existing VHF antenna and maximize your AIS range. The unit removes the need for a separate VHF antenna for an AIS receiver or transponder and allows a single antenna to be shared with a VHF radio. To simplify installation you can share an existing VHF antenna by using this splitter. In addition to the amplification provided by this splitter, when used with your existing antenna you can optimize the range of your AIS transponder because the antenna is also mounted as high as possible.ĭesigned to work with any AIS receiver or transponder* with unique integration features for the AIS WatchMate 850 and WatchMate Vision AIS transponders. This is especially important to increase the receive range from the increasing number of low power AIS SART and MOB devices. This is because the Vesper Marine splitter has a built-in low noise amplifier. Many AIS splitters introduce significant signal loss, some say no loss but this unique Vesper Marine splitter is the only one that provides signal gain - improving AIS reception and increasing range.
