OUR MOST POPULAR RECEIVER: Value, Performance & Easy Installation
Save money and installation time with the award-winning Comar AIS-MULTI. This unique AIS solution delivers a combination of features not found in any other AIS receiver: USB and NMEA Outputs, Dual-channel VHF AIS Receivers and Active Antenna Splitter all in one compact box.

Comar LogoInstalling the MULTI is quick and easy, just connect to the boat's existing VHF Radio Antenna to provide AIS reception (no cable runs) and to your VHF radio. The MULTI also has USB and NMEA 0183 output for easy connection with computers and NMEA standard chart plotters from Raymarine, Garmin, Northstar, Lowrance, Simrad and others.

All-in-one Solution
The AIS-MULTI combines all of these of functions into a single product that saves you the cost of buying separate components and simplifies AIS installation.

Two AIS receivers monitor both AIS channels simultaneously
The AIS-2-NMEA uses two receivers operating in parallel providing true dual-channel simultaneous reception of both Class A and Class B transponder signals. This ensures that all AIS transponder broadcasts are captured in real time.

Built-in active VHF antenna splitter with amplifier
The AIS-MULTI connects directly to the vessel’s existing VHF radio antenna system. The integrated antenna splitter amplifies the antenna signal before being shared by the external VHF radio and internal AIS receivers, thus ensuring minimal insertion loss.

NMEA and USB output ports

The AIS-MULTI can output data to a range of devices including chart plotters and computers via integrated NMEA and USB output ports. This allows the boater to utilize multiple types of display devices simultaneously with a single AIS product.

12VDC and 24VDC Power

The AIS-MULTI can be powered by 12 or 24 volt DC allowing for installation in virtually any vessel’s power system.

Multiplex GPS Data
An external NMEA GPS may be connected to the NMEA Input, which will multiplex the data with the AIS VDM NMEA sentences sent to display devices such as a PC. (The unit will only accept data input at 4800 Baud.)
