MOB1 with AIS

The rescueME MOB1 from Ocean Signal is the world’s smallest AIS MOB device with integrated DSC.

The MOB1 is intended to be installed within the life-jacket and will activate automatically on inflation, sending the first alert within 15 seconds. An integrated strobe light ensures maximum visibility in low light conditions.

The best chance of rapid rescue if you fall overboard comes from your own vessel. Your crew needs to be immediately aware of the incident and keep track of your position whilst recovery is carried out. Even in the most moderate of seas it is alarming how quickly a visual sighting of a man overboard can be lost. Once activated, your MOB1 will transmit an alert to all AIS receivers and AIS enabled plotters within a 5-milerange. The integrated GPS ensures precise location is sent to your vessel and any others that may be assisting. It will also activate the DSC alarm on your vessels VHF, alerting your crew to the situation.

Compatibility: Most modern AIS plotters and DSC VHF comply with the standards required to receive MOB transmissions. It is however, especially if you are using older equipment, recommended that you check compatibility with the equipment manufacturer.
