    The Furuno FA-70 Class B+ AIS Transponder with GPA-C01 GPS Antenna is a high-performance marine safety system designed to keep your vessel visible to surrounding traffic in all maritime conditions. By utilising advanced SO-TDMA technology and a boosted 5-watt transmit power this unit ensures your position speed and heading are broadcast reliably and frequently even in highly congested waterways. It bridges the gap between light-duty recreational units and commercial-grade Class A transponders giving you peace of mind during coastal cruises or open-ocean passages.

    Engineered for seamless integration the FA-70 features a built-in VHF antenna splitter which allows the transponder and your existing VHF radiotelephone to share the same masthead antenna without sacrificing signal performance. The included GPA-C01 external GPS antenna delivers rapid satellite acquisition and rock-solid tracking ensuring your exact coordinates are always accurate. Housed in a rugged compact enclosure with plug-and-play NMEA2000 connectivity this complete bundle is an essential upgrade for any modern helm seeking maximum situational awareness.
