Equipped with a powerful 5-watt SOTDMA Class B\/SO transmitter, the MDA-6 offers superior transmission range and priority, allowing your vessel to be detected earlier and at greater distances, even in congested waterways. Its advanced technology ensures rapid update rates and high-fidelity data broadcasting of critical navigation information such as speed over ground (SOG), course over ground (COG), heading, and hazard reports, giving nearby vessels a clearer and more accurate picture of your movements. This feature is especially vital for commercial operators, high-speed vessels, and recreational boaters navigating busy or challenging routes, where timely and precise data exchange can enhance safety and operational efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for seamless integration, the MDA-6 includes built-in Wi-Fi connectivity for tablets and laptops, enabling easy access to real-time data and control through the integrated AIS Control App with hazard reporting features similar to WAZE. Bluetooth functionality allows for quick setup and troubleshooting, simplifying installation and maintenance. Additionally, the transceiver supports NMEA 0183, NMEA 2000, and USB interfaces for versatile connectivity with your existing marine electronics system. The device's low power consumption ensures efficient operation without draining your vessel’s power sources. An external GPS antenna is included to optimize positioning accuracy, while the rugged IP67-rated housing guarantees protection against water, dust, and vibrations, making it ideal for harsh marine environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe compact and lightweight design of the SI-TEX MDA-6 makes installation flexible on any vessel. Certified by IEC-62287-2, FCC, and USCG standards, this transceiver is built for performance and durability in real-world conditions. Whether you're operating a commercial fleet, a high-speed craft, or enjoying recreational boating in busy waterways, the MDA-6 provides the long-range, high-priority AIS capabilities necessary for safe and efficient navigation in challenging maritime settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e5W SOTDMA Class B\/SO for long-range, high-priority AIS transmissions\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eHigh-fidelity AIS performance for precise, reliable tracking\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eIntegrated high-power Wi-Fi for tablets and laptops\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBluetooth programming app for fast setup and troubleshooting\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eAIS Control App with hazard reporting similar to WAZE\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in VDR capability for data recording\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSupports NMEA 0183, NMEA 2000, and USB connectivity\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eLow power consumption for efficient operation\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eExternal GPS antenna included for enhanced positioning\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eIP67 waterproof, dustproof, and vibration-proof housing\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight design for flexible installation\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCertified by IEC-62287-2, FCC, and USCG standards\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\u003ctbdoy\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\/tbdoy\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"SI-TEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43784479080537,"sku":"112597","price":1017.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0623\/1818\/2489\/files\/112597XL.jpg?v=1784904207","url":"https:\/\/www.marinepartsonly.com\/products\/si-tex-mda-6-high-power-5w-sotdma-class-b-so-ais-transceiver-with-bluetooth-wi-fi-nmea-0183-and-usb-interface","provider":"Marine Parts Only","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
