The AIT5000 is a Class B+ AIS Transponder with a 5W power output, a Wi-Fi interface, a built-in VHF splitter and utilises SOTDMA format transmissions.
Class B+, a new standard, utilises SOTDMA format transmissions which offer a 5W power output (2.5x more powerful than a regular Class B), a guaranteed time slot for transmission in busy traffic areas and faster update rates depending upon the speed of the vessel. It’s ideal for ocean sailors requiring the best possible performance and future proof satellite tracking applications, fast power boats and smaller non-mandated commercial vessels. It still inter-operates with existing Class B and Class A systems.
The AIT5000 incorporates a patented ZeroLoss VHF-AIS antenna splitter allowing the main VHF antenna to be shared with VHF, AIS and FM radio. It also has a wireless interface for connecting to iPads, smartphones and tablets.
The AIS transmissions can be stopped with the Digital Yacht AISConfig app and with a remote silence switch.
The AIT5000 has the option of an AIS SART alarm which is great for use with personal AIS MOB devices. Now works with the popular Navionics Boating App for Apple iOS and Android to display GPS and AIS data on your Navionics charts.

The Class B system was given lower priority than Class A by restricting the Transmit power, the transmission update rate and also the sharing out of the available time slots in which to make a tranmission - Class A units were guaranteed a time slot, Class B units had to scrabble around looking for un-used time slots.
Class B+ units use the exact same SOTDMA technology as Class A units - so guaranteed time slots, they transmitt at 5 watts rather than 2 watts and they transmit more often as the boat increases speed.
