The Nauticast2 Transponder is specifically designed to fulfill NON-SOLAS carriage requirements in the United States. ACR Nauticast AIS systems make a significant contribution to increasing safety at sea.

Size it up!
The Nauticast’s alluring measurements are W 28 cm x D 20 cm and its height is only 6 cm.  It’s a lightweight at 2.5 Kg, and won’t take up precious space on your bridge, even though keyboard and display are integrated.

Plug & Play
Inventive technology at its best! Two sockets suffice to connect power, sensors and antennas and initial Transponder operation is up and running within minutes.

AIS at Your Fingertips
The Nauticast product line by ACR has taken AIS technology further and fully explored its unifying properties and diverse application possibilities. The underlying principle of AIS technology lies in the provision and receipt of data from multiple sources. The Transponder sends, receives and processes own vessel, other vessel, and shore-based navigation data at as well as distributing it to all participants of an AIS network.

The Perfect Companion at Sea
The Nauticast family of AIS systems is perfectly cut out for bridge integration. It blends in neatly thanks to its compact design – it’s the world of AIS, held in one hand! The
Nauticast2 stays in the background, automatically and continuously transmitting vessel type, course, destination, cargo and more. It is thoroughly unobtrusive, yet remains continuously on the alert - only demanding attention when an alarm or error message requires action.

Safety First
Founded upon symbiotic AIS technology, ACR Electronics transponder prominently features progress in safety of navigation through the unification of navigational and communicational activities. Seafarers have always wished to be informed about the activities of vessels in their immediate vicinity - with the AIS Transponder, this wish has now become fulfilled.

Being There
The Nauticast systems allow the user to take on the perspective of his neighboring vessels, to see what they see, and to virtually participate in their maneuvering activities. The Transponder can look around corners – a very useful feature for inland waterway navigation, and see through even the thickest fog. It is never interfered with by extreme weather conditions or busy vessel traffic environments. All in all, it is a horizon expanding experience; especially in combination with electronic charts or radar systems.

Precision, Along with Flexibility
Precise traffic data is the sound basis for supporting flexible navigation. The ACR
Nauticast2 AIS collects, processes and conveys data from various system sources. At ACR, we speak the maritime language and our Nauticast product line formats AIS data in a clear, precise fashion so that it is understood by all.

Quality
Our AIS products undergo stringent quality testing and have been awarded a great number of international type approvals, with thousands of AIS transponders out in the market, the Nauticast brand is a tried and tested system, which has already gained substantial market penetration in this young market.

For over 50 years, ACR has built quality products knowing they are used to save lives.  Our internal processes and manufacturing are ISO 9001:2000 approved, therefore ensuring customer orientation and service reliability.
