Product Description

IP68 SOTDMA Mode 20NM AIS AtoN LED Navigation Lantern 

20NM AIS Range｜SOTDMA Mode｜≤6W Power consumption

The LED160AIS is a high-efficiency, DC-powered AIS AtoN lantern engineered for long-range performance in professional maritime environments. With a transmission power of less than 6W, it achieves 20 nautical miles of AIS communication range, operating in SOTDMA mode for fully autonomous signal transmission and reception—no base station required. Compatible with global AIS protocols and monitoring platforms, it supports custom integration and remote diagnostics, making it ideal for buoys, beacons, and fixed structures where flexibility and independence are key.

Key Advantages  

• Intelligent Power Management
  Built-in system to manage the charging and discharging of external batteries, preventing overcharging, deep discharge, and extending battery lifespan.
• Long-Distance AIS Transmission
  Supports AIS Message 21, 6, 8, and 14, with an effective communication range of over 20 nautical miles, even in low-power mode.
• Low Power Consumption
  Optimized for energy efficiency, supporting autonomous long-term operation in remote areas without dependence on shore-based base stations.
• Fully Compliant AIS AtoN
  Compatible with international standards, supporting dual-mode positioning (GPS + Beidou is required), and real-time monitoring of beacon status including voltage, light output, and solar charging conditions.
• Flexible Deployment
  Ideal for customers who supply their own solar panels and batteries, such as large-scale navigation projects, retrofits, and offshore platforms.
