The AMEC B650S brings the proven B650 Class B SOTDMA AIS transceiver together with a built-in VHF antenna splitter, so one VHF antenna serves both the AIS and your VHF radio without a second cable run. AMEC's third-generation AIS engine, a -111 dBm receive sensitivity, and a 72-channel multi-constellation GNSS receiver make this a capable, low-profile safety layer for any offshore or coastal passage.
