PilotLINK2 WiFi Interface for Class A AIS Systems
The PilotLINK2 is designed for the vast number of Class A AIS systems that utilize a traditional Pilot Plug wired connection. While many modern AIS transponders come equipped with built-in wireless interfaces, numerous vessels still rely on the standard Amphenol multi-pin connector. This device enables seamless access to AIS and GPS data from transponders for maritime professionals such as pilots and delivery captains who require connectivity to their PC-based ECDIS systems. With the increasing popularity of mobile devices, PilotLINK2 caters to the need for wireless access to essential maritime data.
Designed to interface with a variety of mobile platforms, including iPhones, tablets, and computers, the PilotLINK2 is perfect for applications ranging from maritime pilot operations to survey ship charters. This device enhances usability by providing a secure WiFi connection for optimal data access.
