Raymarine AIS700 Class B AIS Transceiver w/Antenna Splitter Product Description
Boost Your On-Water Safety with Raymarine AIS700
Imagine navigating busy waterways or foggy coastal stretches with confidence, knowing nearby vessels can see you just as clearly as you see them. The Raymarine AIS700 Class B transceiver delivers that peace of mind by transmitting your boat's position, speed, course, and identity while receiving the same vital data from others. Perfect for recreational boaters, fishing enthusiasts, or coastal cruisers, this compact unit integrates seamlessly with multifunction displays, turning potential hazards into visible targets on your screen.
What sets the AIS700 apart is its clever design that prioritizes real-world boating challenges. No need for extra antennas or complex wiring—its built-in splitter shares your existing VHF setup, saving time and deck space. Whether you're dodging commercial traffic in shipping lanes or anchoring in crowded bays, this system enhances situational awareness without overwhelming your helm.
Key Advantages for Everyday Boaters
- Superior Collision Avoidance: Receive and broadcast precise vessel data, including dynamic info like heading and static details like vessel name, reducing "blind spot" risks in low visibility.
- Extended Range Performance: Powered by advanced SO-TDMA technology, it outperforms older AIS units with quicker updates and reliable transmission up to several miles, even in high-traffic zones.
- Stealth When You Need It: Switch to silent mode via software on your display or a hardware toggle to stop broadcasting—ideal for private anchoring, fishing spots, or security-sensitive areas—while still monitoring others.
- Rugged Marine Build: Handles harsh conditions with IPX6/IPX7 waterproofing, operating from -15°C to +55°C, so it's ready for summer heat or winter chills.
- Effortless Networking: Plugs into NMEA2000, NMEA0183, SeaTalkng, or even USB for laptops, making it versatile for modern or legacy setups.
How the AIS700 Enhances Your Boating Experience
AIS isn't just radar's sidekick—it's a proactive safety net. Picture this: You're motorsailing at dusk when a freighter emerges from the haze. The AIS700 overlays its track on your chartplotter, complete with CPA (closest point of approach) predictions, letting you adjust course early. For liveaboards or offshore adventurers, the integrated 72-channel GPS ensures accurate positioning without relying solely on your main chartplotter's receiver.
Installation is straightforward for DIYers: Mount the compact unit out of sight, connect the splitter to your VHF antenna, run the GNSS antenna topsides, and link data cables to your MFD. Power draw stays under 3W, sipping from 12V or 24V systems without straining batteries. Pro tip: Position the GNSS antenna high and clear of obstructions for optimal satellite lock—cold starts in under 30 seconds keep you online fast.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Raymarine AIS700 work with non-Raymarine displays?
Yes, its NMEA2000 and NMEA0183 interfaces ensure broad compatibility with most marine multifunction displays, instruments, and even PC software.
What's the difference between Class A and Class B AIS like the AIS700?
Class B (like AIS700) suits recreational and smaller vessels with lower power (5W) and SO-TDMA for efficient sharing, while Class A is mandatory for large commercial ships with higher priority transmissions.
Can I use my existing VHF antenna with this unit?
Absolutely—the built-in splitter allows seamless sharing between your VHF radio and AIS without performance loss or extra hardware.
How do I activate silent mode on the AIS700?
Use software controls via your MFD for easy toggling, or opt for the hardware switch for quick, on-the-fly muting of your transmissions.
Is programming required for the AIS700?
Yes, especially in regions like the US where FCC rules mandate professional setup with your MMSI. It's a one-time process for compliance and security.
How accurate is the GPS on this AIS transceiver?
The 72-channel GNSS receiver supports GPS and GLONASS for reliable positioning, with fast acquisition even in challenging environments.
Equip your vessel with the Raymarine AIS700 and sail smarter, safer. Its blend of cutting-edge tech and practical features makes it a go-to for boaters who value reliability over complexity.
The AIS700 from Raymarine is a Class B Automatic Identification System (AIS) transceiver designed for use with any multifunction navigation display 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.

The fully transmitting AIS Raymarine AIS700 Class B AIS transceiver with a built-in antenna splitter is a complete transmitting and receiving device, and has a variety of connection options. AIS 700 can be connected to NMEA 2000 compliant MFD, old MFD with NMEA 0183 connection, PC connected via built-in USB, and devices connected to Raymarine MFD via SeaTalk NG network. Such a wide range of interconnection capabilities allows each end user to find the best connection without feeling limited in the way of sharing and viewing data. Exchange data with other ship users, including ship name, course, speed, etc. AIS contacts can be quickly shared and displayed on Raymarine MFD, radar and other selected instruments. With AIS700, you can transmit your own ship data or receive data from other ships nearby, so you can understand the surrounding environment. The "silent mode" with hardware and software enabled allows you to temporarily restrict the broadcast of ship data while still receiving other ship data, which is essential for race settings or to improve safety. Raymarine has manufactured this compact device that can be easily installed in almost any position on the ship, so that it takes up minimal space inside the helmet or behind the console. The built-in VHF band antenna splitter allows you to share a single antenna with current VHF radios for seamless installation. AIS700 is designed with the latest network technology. Compared with the previous models on the market, it can run at a longer distance and at a faster speed. For the latest transceiver technology, Raymarine AIS 700 Class B AIS is the ultimate solution. The included GPS antenna must be used to obtain proper performance.
