Designed for professional mariners and boaters alike, this advanced device offers a robust 5-watt transmission power, ensuring your vessel is visible at greater distances in busy waterways and through AIS tracking websites. Its SOTDMA Class B technology guarantees prioritized transmission, especially in congested commercial harbors and ports, making it an essential tool for safe navigation and collision avoidance. The built-in antenna splitter eliminates the need for a second antenna, simplifying installation and reducing clutter on your vessel’s bridge. The MDA-5H is fully certified by IEC-62287-2, FCC, and USCG standards, providing peace of mind with reliable, compliant performance. It features dual receivers that decode all DSC AIS messages, including MOB and SART signals, and integrates seamlessly with your existing navigational systems via NMEA-0183, NMEA-2000, and USB interfaces. The device's GPS receiver supports GLONASS satellite signals, ensuring accurate positioning even in challenging environments. Its IPX7 waterproof rating guarantees durability in harsh marine conditions, and its efficient power consumption extends operational longevity. The package includes a commercial-grade external GPS antenna, mounting hardware, power and data cables, as well as detailed programming and troubleshooting software, making setup straightforward. Designed with a compact form factor, the transceiver weighs less than one pound, making it easy to install and maintain. With a two-year warranty, the SI-TEX MDA-5H guarantees long-term reliability and performance, making it an excellent choice for commercial vessels, fishing boats, and recreational mariners seeking superior AIS communication and safety features.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e5-Watt transmitter power: Ensures longer range visibility for your vessel in busy maritime environments\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSOTDMA Class B technology: Provides priority transmission in congested ports and harbors\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eIntegrated VHF antenna splitter: Eliminates the need for a second antenna, simplifying installation\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMultiple connectivity options: NMEA-0183, NMEA-2000, and USB interfaces for seamless integration with bridge systems\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in GPS with GLONASS support: Offers precise positioning and navigation data\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eWaterproof to IPX7 standard: Suitable for harsh marine conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDual receivers: Decode all DSC AIS messages, including MOB and SART\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCertified by IEC-62287-2, FCC, and USCG: Ensures compliance with industry standards\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight design: Facilitates easy installation and maintenance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eTwo-year warranty: Provides confidence in product durability and performance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cstyle\u003etable.productattributes, .productattributes td { border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd; border-collapse: collapse; padding: 2px; text-align: left; }\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"productattributes\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eTruck Freight: No\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eOversized: No\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"SI-TEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44253621551193,"sku":"93637","price":1109.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0623\/1818\/2489\/files\/93637XL.jpg?v=1785353868","url":"https:\/\/www.marinepartsonly.com\/products\/si-tex-mda-5h-hi-power-5w-sotdma-class-b-ais-transceiver-with-built-in-antenna-splitter-marine-vhf-transponder-for-commercial-and-recreational-vessels","provider":"Marine Parts Only","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
