Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Class A and Class B AIS?
Class A AIS is required for commercial vessels over 300 gross tons and transmits every 2-10 seconds. Class B AIS is designed for recreational and smaller commercial vessels, transmitting every 30 seconds to 3 minutes depending on speed. Class B provides excellent safety benefits for recreational boaters.
Do I need a separate VHF antenna for AIS?
No, the AIS700 includes a built-in antenna splitter that allows it to share your existing VHF antenna with your VHF radio. This eliminates the need for additional antenna installation and reduces system complexity.
Can I use this with non-Raymarine equipment?
Yes, the AIS700 is designed for universal compatibility. It works with any multifunction display or chartplotter that supports AIS data through NMEA2000, NMEA0183, or USB connections, including Garmin, Furuno, Lowrance, and other brands.
What information does AIS transmit about my boat?
Class B AIS transmits your vessel's position, course, speed, rate of turn, vessel name, MMSI number, vessel type and dimensions, and navigation status. This information helps other vessels identify and avoid collision with your boat.
How does Silent Mode work?
Silent Mode stops your AIS transmissions while continuing to receive data from other vessels. This can be activated through your MFD software or with an optional hardware switch. It's useful for security in remote areas or competitive situations while maintaining situational awareness.
What is the range of AIS communication?
AIS range is line-of-sight, typically 20-30 nautical miles depending on antenna height, weather conditions, and terrain. The AIS700's SO-TDMA technology provides enhanced range compared to older AIS systems, improving detection of distant vessels.
The AIS700 from Raymarine is a Class B Automatic Identification System (AIS) transceiver designed for use with any multifunction navigation display systems. As a Class B AIS transceiver, the AIS700 not only receives broadcasts from other vessels, it also transmits your own boat’s information too helping you to be seen on other vessels’ systems.

The AIS700 from Raymarine is a Class B Automatic Identification System (AIS) transceiver designed for use with Raymarine multifunction navigation display systems. AIS is an international marine navigation safety system that allows participating vessels to silently exchange key navigation information including vessel name, identification, course, speed and more. AIS contacts can be displayed on Raymarine multifunction displays, chartplotters, radar displays and select instruments. As a Class B AIS transceiver, the AIS700 not only receives broadcasts from other vessels, it also transmits your own boat’s information too helping you to be seen on other vessels’ systems.
The AIS700 is engineered using the very latest SO-TDMA (Self Organized Time Division Multiple Access) networking technology which allows it to perform faster and at longer ranges than d speed over previous generation AIS products. For ease-of-installation, the AIS700 has a built in VHF-band antenna splitter which allows it to share a single antenna with your current VHF radio. AIS700 also has its own internal, dedicated 72-channel GPS receiver with external antenna as required by international standards.
AIS700 also supports both hardware and software-enabled Silent Mode. This allows you to temporarily restrict broadcasting your vessels own data, while continuing to receive updates from surrounding traffic. Silent Mode can be particularly useful when transiting waters where extra security is a concern, or even in competitive tournament scenarios when you might want to prevent other from finding out the location of the hot bite. Normal AIS safety broadcasts can be easily reinstated with a few simple touches of the AIS controls in your Raymarine MFD, or with the flip of a switch for hardware-silenced systems.
The AIS700 is super-compact for easy mounting inside your helm, in a service locker, or other out-of-the-way location. It can connect to your other onboard electronics using the latest NMEA2000 networking. AIS700 also has a built-in NMEA0183 multiplexer to assist in connecting it to older MFD’s and VHF radio systems. AIS700 also has a built-in USB 2.0 connection that can be used to tie the transceiver into a computer or laptop running AIS compatible navigation software. AIS700 has a Secure Digital (SD) memory slot that can be fitted with an owner-suppled flash memory card for continuous recording of the AIS data stream.
