Description

The easy2-MOB is a personal AIS (Automatic Identification System) emergency beacon designed to enhance maritime safety. Specifically engineered for man-overboard situations, it automatically activates upon immersion in water and begins transmitting AIS signals, providing instant and accurate location data to nearby AIS receivers on vessels within range.

Key Features:

• Automatic activation upon water contact (manual activation also possible)

• AIS SART functionality: transmits MOB alerts over AIS frequencies

• GNSS positioning for accurate location reporting

• LED strobe light for visual location in dark or poor weather

• Compact and waterproof design (IP68-rated)

• Unique MMSI encoding for individual identification

• Long battery life suitable for emergency use

• Universal compatibility with AIS-enabled chartplotters and receivers

• Robust and buoyant, designed for real-world maritime conditions
