Vesper WatchMate XB-6000 high-performance AIS transponder with integrated NMEA 2000 gateway

WatchMate XB-6000 is a Class B AIS transponder with a two-channel parallel receiver and transmitter. It transmits the position and details of your vessel and receives the same type of information from outside its vessels equipped with AIS transponders.

AIS data is sent every few seconds and includes information such as heading, speed, latitude, longitude and heading. Static vessel information is sent every few minutes and includes name, vessel type, length, width, draft, etc.

Integrated Certified NMEA2000 Gateway

Translates NMEA 2000 instrument data (heading, wind, depth, speed, log, temperature) and routes it via USB and NMEA 0183.

All NMEA 2 navigation data000 are combined with GPS and AIS data and sent to computers via USB. View and use this data in your navigation applications on Windows and Mac navigation software.

Simply plug the XB-6000 into your NMEA 2000 network and your integration is complete. Or connect it to the NMEA 0183 input of your chartplotter. And if you have a mixed network, you can even use the XB-6000 to integrate the two by connecting your new NMEA 2000 instruments on the chartplotter!

High speed 5 Hz GPS navigation and integrated GPS antenna

An integrated 50 channel GPS receiver (with WAAS/EGNOS) and its own antenna Internal GPS eliminates the need to install an external GPS antenna in many situations.

However, it also includes a powerful external antenna for installations that require one.need. The external antenna can be pole mounted on standard 1" threaded tubing or mounted on a flat surface with the included base. The cable has a small connector, approximately the same diameter as the cable, for easy routing through small holes.
