Boasting 99 acquisition channels and 33 tracking channels, this advanced technology ensures that the AIS transmissions provide the most accurate indication of your vessel\u2019s position at all times.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">Other vessel information such as vessel name, call sign, type and dimensions as well as the MMSI are also transmitted automatically from the ATB1. This information is uploaded to the ATB1 via WiFi directly from Ocean Signal\u2019s user-friendly mobile app or website. Once this information has been uploaded, it remains stored in the unit\u2019s non-volatile memory even if powered down for long periods of time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">The ATB1 also receives and interprets AIS messages from other AIS equipped vessels within range, which can then be relayed effortlessly to other navigation devices such as chart plotters, laptops or mobiles using the ATB1\u2019s NMEA 0183, NMEA 2000<\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">\u00ae<\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">, USB or WiFi outputs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">Using the superior SOTDMA* access scheme sets the ATB1 apart from the CSTDMA** class B products available. This Ocean Signal Class B+ unit has the same AIS transmission priority as a class A unit, giving the added assurance that there will be no loss or delay of transmission, even in high traffic areas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">The ATB1 also has a faster reporting rate and higher output power than CSTDMA class B units.\u00a0 <\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">It sends AIS transmissions every 5 seconds instead of the maximum two transmissions per minute and the 5W output power instead of 2W allows your transmissions to reach further.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">A multi-colour LED indicator light on the ATB1 signals the on-going operational status of the unit. This additional safety feature provides you the confidence of knowing that the ATB1 has continuous AIS transmission and optimal performance.\u00a0The ATB1 has a sleek yet rugged waterproof design that is high on performance and low on energy consumption.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">It is quick and simple to install and comes complete with an ex<\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\">ternal GPS antenna, meaning that all you need is the use of a suitable device (mobile phone, tablet or PC) to upload your vessel information, and you can begin<\/span><span class=\"fontstyle0\"> transmitting your AIS messages within minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">A leader in life-saving maritime products for the professional and leisure markets, Ocean Signal yet again provides the ultimate in safety and peace of mind with the ATB1 Class B Transceiver.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><span class=\"fontstyle0\">* Self Organised Time Division Multiple Access<br \/>\n** Carrier Sense Time Division Multiple Access<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For ATB1 firmware updates and the revision history please see <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/oceansignal.com\/support\/product-programming\/atb1-class-b-ais-transceiver-programming\/software-updates\/\">this page<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">The Ocean Signal <span class=\"fontstyle2\">ATB1 <\/span>Class B+ AIS Transceiver incorporating the superior <span class=\"fontstyle2\">SOTDMA <\/span>access scheme provides increased visibility and safety at sea.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">The fully compliant ATB1 Class B+ (SOTDMA) AIS Transceiver from Ocean Signal is the latest in a long line of essential sea-safety equipment developed and manufactured in the UK for the<\/span>\u00a0Maritime market.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fontstyle0\">Designed as an aid to collision-avoidance, it provides a significant advantage in navigational safety giving you the peace of mind that your vessel will be seen day or night, no matter the weather, on today\u2019s busy waterways.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1177,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[71],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-717","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-discontinued","8":"first","9":"outofstock","10":"taxable","11":"shipping-taxable","12":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.2 (Yoast SEO v26.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>AIS ATB1 Class B+ AIS Transceiver - Ocean Signal<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/oceansignal.com\/us\/products\/ais-atb1-class-b-ais-transceiver\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"AIS ATB1 Class B+ AIS Transceiver\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Ocean Signal ATB1 Class B+ AIS Transceiver incorporating the superior SOTDMA access scheme provides increased visibility and safety at sea.
