The most important thing we build is trust

The SAILOR 6280/6281 AISSystem (Class A) is a SAILOR
product through and through.
From the innovative ‘black box’
system design and user friendly
touch screen operation, to flexible installation possibilities andinherent durability, it is built
on the fundamental qualities
that have made SAILOR a wellrespected name in maritime
communication. You can trust it
to reliably broadcast your AIS
data and display that of vessels
around you, ensuring your ability
to operate safely and efficiently.

Installation possibilities
A major innovation of the SAILOR
6280/6281 AIS System is its modulardesign. Being a ‘black box’ solution
ensures highly flexible installation possibilities. It is 100 % network integrated; justinstall the black box transponder whereverconvenient and connect it via LAN (usingthe sophisticated Lightweight Ethernetprotocol) to the SAILOR 6004 Control
Panel (touch display) for complete installation flexibility.

Advanced features
In addition to its innovative design andoperation, the SAILOR 6280/6281 AISSystem delivers high performance onbasic parameters, such as sensitivity,immunity, and blocking, so you can be
confident in its ability to deliver andreceive all AIS information at all times.
A strong feature set, designed to provide safe and flexible operation basedon reliable AIS data, makes the SAILOR
6280/6281 AIS System one of the mostadvanced Class A compliant systems available.
All parts included in the box – even theSAILOR 6285 Active GPS Antenna
Built-in Self-diagnostic system
Possibility for one-antenna installation(Common VHF and GPS antenna)
River use compliant – Compliant withCCNR requirements (CentralCommission for navigation on theRhine)
Works with both GPS and GLONASSSupport message for Long Range
Satellite tracking on channel 75 &channel 76
Interface for ‘Pilot Plug’

Integration flexibility
Both the SAILOR 6280 AIS System and theSAILOR 6281 AIS Basic System, feature
the ThraneLINK application interface.
This makes servicing easy. The system isdesigned to be used standalone or as partof an Integrated Navigation System (INS).

Touch innovation
SAILOR has pioneered the use of touch
screen bridge equipment with the SAILOR
6006 Message Terminal, which is part ofthe industry leading SAILOR 6000 GMDSS
Series. The new touch display for theSAILOR 6280/6281 AIS System is a natural
progression of this, offering intuitive andfamiliar control. Operating the SAILOR
6280/6281 AIS System is similar to using
your smartphone; simply activate thefunctions by activating the app on the display. This is a concept that can truly revolutionize the way to work on the bridge.

ThraneLINKThraneLINK is a sophisticated communication protocol that connects the SAILOR
products in a network, offering important new opportunities to vessels. It provides
facility for remote diagnostics and enables access to all the SAILOR products
from a single point for service. This results in optimized maintenance and lower
cost of ownership because less time is needed for troubleshooting and service.
Installation is made easier as ThraneLINK automatically identifies new productsin the system. The uniform protocol is an open standard which provides a future
proof solution for all vessels.
