Description and Specifications

AISnet AIS Base Station

AISnet is a new AIS receiver for use as an AIS base station at home or in the office. Utilising the same high performance dual channel AIS receiver as the rest of the Digital Yacht range, AISnet also features an ethernet socket so that you can connect it to your broadband router and send AIS data to an on-line AIS tracking service.

There are now a large number of internet based web sites which offer a view of AIS equipped vessels on a background chart allowing users to check the position and identity of ships and yachts. If your home/office is close to the coast and you would like to contribute your data to one of these sites, simply register with the company and they will give you an IP address and Port number.

Using the setup program that Digital Yacht supply, it takes seconds to program the IP address and Port in to AISnet, which will immediately start sending your local AIS data seamlessly across the internet to be displayed on the site.

It is also possible to view the data, that AISnet is collecting, locally on your PC using the free SmarterTrack Lite software that Digital Yacht include with every AISnet. Simply plug the USB connector into your PC and the AIS data will appear on your PC and still be transmitted over the internet.

AISnet is supplied with a universal UK/Euro/US mains adaptor that provides a regulated 12v supply from 240v/110v AC mains.

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

When will my order ship?

For in-stock items, orders placed by 4:00 PM EST are eligible to ship the same day. If any item in the order is not currently in stock, shipment timing will depend on availability.

What is your return window?

Eligible merchandise may be returned within 30 days from the date of receipt. All returns require a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number before anything is sent back. For the smoothest experience, we ask customers to contact Salina Vita first so we can coordinate the request properly. Returned merchandise must be complete, in its original packaging, and in resalable condition. Items that arrive incomplete, improperly packed, or not suitable for resale may not qualify for return approval.

Are restocking fees possible?

Yes. Approved returns may be subject to a restocking fee of up to 15%. Non-stock items may not be returned. In addition, opened or unsealed DVDs, CDs, and cartography products are non-returnable unless defective. If the product falls into CWR’s excluded media categories—such as opened or unsealed cartography, DVDs, or CDs—it is not returnable unless defective.

If my unit needs warranty service, should I send it back to Salina Vita?

No. Units requiring service, whether under warranty or otherwise, should be returned directly to the appropriate manufacturer, not to Salina Vita. We are always happy to help guide you to the correct manufacturer support path. Absolutely. While the service destination is the manufacturer, we can help you identify the proper support channel and make the process feel more straightforward and well-managed. Units that require service themselves, however, should go directly to the manufacturer under CWR’s policy.

I still have more Questions, can we contact you?

At Salina Vita, we believe premium marine commerce should feel measured, transparent, and reassuring. If you have a question about a shipment, return eligibility, or manufacturer service, contact us before taking the next step and we will guide you with the discretion and clarity your vessel deserves.
