Furuno's FA-50 class-B AIS transponder receives nagigation data from AIS equipped vessels nearby that can be utilised to aid in safe navigation. Also, the FA-50 transmits own ships information to the vessels around, which aids in collision avoidance.
AIS utilises a VHF data link to exhange own ship information with other AIS equipped vessels around. The FA-50 incorporates the received AIS information into a radar, a chart plotter and other graphic display options such as a PC to improve situational awareness. AIS targets on the screens are shown with SOG/COG vector, which greatly assists you in grasping the surrounding situation even in the midst of congested waterways. Closest Point of Approach (CPA) and Time to Closest Point of Approach (TCPA) can also be computed and displayed on the radar / chart plotter screen.
The FA-50 feeds AIS data to the NavNet Series through Ethernet. The FA-50 can also be interfaced with a Furuno chart plotter and radar via NMEA 0183 format to supplement information to the onboard navigation system.
