Simrad RS40-B Marine VHF Radio With DSC And AIS RXTX + GPS500

Enhance Your Vessel's Safety with Integrated AIS

The Simrad RS40-B Marine VHF Radio is equipped with a built-in Class B AIS transceiver. This advanced feature allows you to not only receive AIS targets but also transmit your boat's position to nearby AIS-equipped vessels. Whether it's day or night, this integrated AIS system ensures that your boat is visible to other mariners, even in challenging conditions. By monitoring the position of other AIS-equipped vessels, the RS40-B helps you proactively avoid collisions in busy harbors and waterways. The AIS information can be conveniently viewed on the radio's built-in screen or overlaid on your chart or radar screen using a compatible multifunction display.

Convenient and Versatile Removable Fist Mic

The RS40-B comes with a removable fist mic that can be connected to either the front or rear of the radio. With optional extension cables, you have the flexibility to mount the mic and radio separately, eliminating cable clutter. For example, you can mount the radio overhead without any hanging cables, while connecting the mic to an extension socket on the dash below. This simple and cost-effective solution allows for easy installation in any mounting location.

Expand Your Communication Options with Wireless Handsets

Take your radio anywhere on board by adding the optional HS40 wireless handset. Each handset replicates the display and controls of your RS40-B radio, providing remote access to all key functions. With the capability to connect up to two wireless handsets, your radio also functions as an on-board intercom when multiple handsets are connected.

Key Features for Enhanced Connectivity and Functionality

In addition to its integrated Class B AIS transceiver and Class D DSC approved VHF radio, the RS40-B also features an integrated GPS receiver. This ensures accurate positioning information for your vessel. The NMEA 0183® and NMEA 2000® connectivity options allow for seamless integration with other compatible devices, expanding your network and enhancing your overall boating experience. Furthermore, the RS40-B supports the addition of an optional loudhailer or external speaker, providing even more versatility and functionality.

Upgrade your marine communication system with the Simrad RS40-B Marine VHF Radio. Its integrated AIS, removable fist mic, expandable wireless handsets, and various connectivity options make it a reliable and convenient choice for any boating adventure.
