Product Details
When choosing a Simrad communications product, start with the role it needs to fill: primary VHF radio, black box multi-station system, AIS visibility, or a remote handset for an existing radio. Also confirm antenna needs, NMEA 2000/NMEA 0183 wiring, GPS requirements, handset locations, hailer/speaker needs, and MMSI/AIS programming requirements where applicable.
Questions About Simrad VHF and AIS Products
What is the difference between RS100-B and RS100?
RS100-B adds Class B AIS capability to the black box VHF platform, while RS100 is the VHF black box radio package without the integrated AIS transceiver.
Should I choose RS40 or RS40-B?
Choose RS40 if you mainly need fixed-mount VHF with AIS receive functionality. Choose RS40-B if you want a fixed-mount VHF with Class B AIS transmit and receive capability.
When should I choose the V3100?
Choose the V3100 when you want a dedicated Class B AIS transponder instead of combining AIS functions into a VHF radio. Confirm programming requirements before installation.
