FLIR | TransponderTech R6 Supreme AIS/VDES
The Most Versatile Class-A AIS System On The Market
The FLIR | TransponderTech R6 Supreme AIS is a type-approved AIS Class-A, designed and tested to IEC 61933-2 and certified for inland waterways (EU). The state-of-the-art Software Defined Radio provides class-leading sensitivity exceeding international standards substantially improving signal reception and range.
Intuitive User Interface
The R6 CDU (Control and Display Unit) combines the high quality display with a user-friendly design to simplify operations with intuitive controls. The 7-inch sunlight-readable touch display presents clear, precise data, and supports central dimming.
The built-in system web interface can be used for optional configuration and control.
FLIR | TransponderTech R6 Secure AIS
Networked Transponders For Operational Security
The R6 Secure represents a new generation of AIS system that builds on the legacy of the R5 Secure AIS. The R6 Secure AIS offers full compatibility with the R5 and R4 Secure AIS systems, providing selected customer groups within special operations such as Navy, Coast Guard and Police with the option to perform encrypted AIS communication outside the public AIS network.
Seamlessly Combined Secure and Open AIS
The AIS broadcasting standard is excellent for open information exchange between commercial ships at sea and between ship-and-shore stations. The TransponderTech Secure solution is designed to address the needs of qualified users like Navy, Coast Guard, and Police who require non-public information exchange between their own units while still being able to receive open AIS information. TransponderTech has been the leading provider of encrypted AIS since 2005, and the Secure functionality can be offered as a complete seamless solution from vessels, aircraft, base stations, and control centres.


FLIR | TransponderTech R6 NAV PRO RTK
R6 NAV, Class-Leading GNSS Performance
The R6 NAV series is a next generation line of GNSS receivers designed to deliver robust and precise IMO-compliant navigation. The expanding R6 NAV family is now replacing previous R4 NAV and R5 NAV systems that together have been the top choice for professional mariners for over two decades.
Verified Jamming and Spoofing Protection
Maintaining secure positioning in GNSS-compromised environments is critical. Verified through third-party testing, R6 NAV PRO systems are able to maintain valid positioning even under multi-band jamming, and outperform single-band receivers that are significantly vulnerable to jamming.
R6 NAV PRO systems offers advanced signal filtering and noise suppression, real-time jamming detection, alerts and mitigation across L1, L2, and L5 bands.
For secure positioning in compromised waters, R6 NAV PRO RTK stands out as the primary type-approved option together with the R6 NAV PRO Compass and R6 NAV NEO.
