The AMEC B650WS tops the B650 family by combining a 5W SO-TDMA Class B AIS transceiver with built-in 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi and a zero-insertion-loss VHF antenna splitter — so you share one antenna between AIS and your VHF radio without signal penalty. AMEC's third-generation AIS engine delivers -111 dBm receiving sensitivity, a 72-channel multi-constellation GNSS receiver, and the lowest standby power draw in its class, all packed into an IP68-rated housing engineered for shock, vibration, extreme temperatures, and salt-mist exposure.
