• IC-M510E with CB2000 Class B AIS transponder**.
• IC-M605EURO with CB2000 Class B AIS transponder*
• CB2000 Class B AIS transponder* *Includes N2K starter kit which features NMEA2000 backbone and cable for connection to the IC-M506/M605 or compatible device. Earlier versions of the IC-M506GE/EURO may need a firmware upgrade. The CB2000 comes with a one year warranty.
**IC-M510E requires CTM500 for N2K Starter Kit to be compatible. Simple ‘Plug & Play’ Installation
The CB2000 is conveniently sized measuring only 160mm x 120mm x 37.5mm (W x H x D) and weighing just 850g. It simply connects to the NMEA2000 backbone that comes supplied with this package. The unit can be mounted discretely out of sight. It also has an NMEA2000 interface for simple connection to the majority of new AIS-compatible GPS chart plotters and includes an integral NMEA2000 drop cable with a male mini- connector. It consumes less than 2W power and is self-powered from the NMEA2000 network. The CB2000 requires a dedicated VHF/AIS antenna or a suitable VHF/AIS active antenna splitter and an NMEA2000GPS may be required for the connected compatible VHF radio. There is a USB interface for programming and for PC/MAC-based navigation. Once installed the CB2000 will just work away in the background. Ideal For a Range of Vessels
This transponder radio solution will be ideal for all boaters, including sailing yachts, motor cruisers, RIBS and tenders, indeed anyone who wants the enhanced safety of an AIS transponder and the comfort and benefits it offers.
