Raymarine AIS650 Class B Transceiver - Includes Programming Fee Product Description
Enhance your boating safety and situational awareness with the Raymarine AIS650 Class B transceiver, a compact powerhouse designed for seamless integration into your marine navigation setup. This device transmits your vessel's vital information—like position, speed, and course—while receiving real-time data from nearby ships, displaying it directly on your Raymarine multifunction display. Ideal for recreational boaters, cruisers, and fishing enthusiasts, it bridges the gap between commercial-grade AIS tech and everyday on-water adventures.
Why Choose a Class B AIS Transceiver for Your Boat
Class B AIS units like the AIS650 strike the perfect balance for pleasure craft. Unlike high-power Class A systems mandated for large commercial vessels, Class B operates with optimized transmit power and intervals, conserving energy while still ensuring visibility to other boats up to 20 nautical miles away under ideal conditions. Boaters report fewer collisions in busy harbors and open waters thanks to this mutual exchange of data, turning foggy mornings or crowded anchorages into navigable scenarios.
Standout Performance Features
- Dual-Channel Reception: Captures both Class A (commercial) and Class B signals simultaneously, delivering a complete picture of surrounding traffic without missing a beat.
- Precision GPS Integration: Built-in 50-channel receiver with RAIM (Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring) ensures pinpoint accuracy, alerting you to any GPS inconsistencies for reliable positioning.
- Flexible Silent Mode: Toggle transmission via software from your display or hardware switch for ultimate privacy—perfect for stealthy fishing runs or anchoring in remote spots.
- Data Logging Capability: SD card slot lets you record voyages for playback, analysis, or sharing with crew, adding value beyond real-time use.
- Diagnostic LEDs: Front-facing indicators provide instant status checks, from power to GPS lock, minimizing troubleshooting time.
Effortless Integration with Raymarine Systems
The AIS650 shines in Raymarine ecosystems, connecting via SeaTalkng for plug-and-play setup with C-Series, E-Series, and G-Series displays. Its NMEA multiplexer handles legacy gear, VHF radios, and third-party instruments effortlessly. Unlock buddy tracking to iconize friends' boats on your chartplotter, making group outings safer and more coordinated. NMEA2000 compatibility extends its reach, future-proofing your helm station.
Real-World Boating Benefits
Imagine threading through a fleet of freighters at dawn: AIS overlays targets on your radar or charts, showing their headings and speeds to predict paths. For offshore sailors, it flags distant vessels early, buying time for maneuvers. Tournament anglers appreciate silent mode to hide prime spots, while families gain peace of mind from enhanced collision avoidance. Compact at half the size of older models, it fits tight consoles without sacrificing power.
Installation Essentials for Smooth Setup
Mount the unit discreetly below deck, pairing it with the included passive GPS antenna for optimal VHF and GPS signals. Use SeaTalkng spurs for networked displays or NMEA cables for standalone VHF sync. Power draws minimally, but position away from high-interference sources like engines. US users note professional programming aligns MMSI for FCC compliance, ensuring legal operation from day one.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Class A and Class B AIS?
Class A is for commercial ships with higher power and priority messaging, while Class B suits recreational boats with efficient, lower-power transmissions ideal for smaller vessels.
Does the AIS650 work with non-Raymarine displays?
Yes, via NMEA0183, NMEA2000 (with adapter), or USB, it integrates with various MFDs, instruments, and PC navigation software.
How does silent mode benefit boaters?
It allows turning off your transmission for privacy, like concealing fishing locations or enhancing security in sensitive areas, while still receiving others' data.
Is programming required for the AIS650 in the US?
FCC rules mandate technician programming with your MMSI from a Ship Station License, included at purchase for compliance.
What range can I expect from the AIS650?
Typically up to 20 nautical miles for transmission and reception, varying with antenna height, weather, and vessel size.
Can the AIS650 log voyage data?
Absolutely, insert an SD card to record AIS traffic, positions, and events for later review or insurance purposes.
Does it include a GPS antenna?
Yes, a passive GPS antenna is supplied, ensuring standalone positioning without extra purchases.

Operating in the VHF maritime band, the AIS system enables the wireless exchange of navigation status between vessels and shore-side traffic monitoring centers. Commercial ships, ocean-going vessels and recreational boats equipped with AIS transceivers broadcast AIS messages that include the vessel's name, course, speed and current navigation status.
Raymarine's AIS650 is a class B AIS transceiver allowing you to transmit your data to other AIS equipped vessels, and receive their data for viewing right on your Raymarine multifunction display's radar or chartplotter screen.
Raymarine's AIS650 Class B Automatic Identification (AIS) transceiver brings boaters best-in-class features and performance in a package that's 50% smaller than previous generation AIS transceivers. The AIS650 is engineered for seamless integration with Raymarine multifunction displays and offers multiple connection options including SeaTalkng, NMEA2000, NMEA0183 and USB. This unprecedented flexibility makes the AIS650 easy to integrate with all of your onboard electronics including MFD's, instruments, PC based navigation systems and more.
The AIS650 features a dual-channel receiver system for fast acquisition and tracking of both Class A and Class B AIS traffic. It's also equipped with a state-of-the-art 50-channel GPS receiver with Receiver Autonomous Integrity Management (RAIM.) RAIM intelligently monitors the status and accuracy of the GPS system ensuring the vessel position transmitted by the AIS650 is of the highest level of accuracy possible. AIS650 is also fitted with a standard Secure Digital (SD) memory card slot, and AIS data recording capability.
AIS650 also features both hardware and software enabled Silent Mode, which enables the captain to switch off the AIS transmitter for reasons of security or privacy. When connected to Raymarine MFD's, silent mode can be enabled or disabled at-will from any display on the network. This feature is most often employed by tournament captains who do not want to reveal the position of their hot fishing spot, but is also vital to cruising power and sailing vessels who may want to temporarily disable broadcasting their position out of concern for vessel security. AIS650 has a dedicated set of leads than can be employed to physically switch off the AIS transmitter beyond what the software mode allows.
When used with Raymarine multifunction displays, the AIS650 supports Raymarine's exclusive Buddy Tracking feature, which allows you to save AIS targets of interest with a special icon and "friendly" name. Buddy tracking makes it easy to spot the boats of friends and family out on the water, or to identify other vessels-of-interest with ease.
