The world’s smallest AIS Man Overboard (MOB) device with integrated VHF DSC
Alerting your vessel about a Man Overboard is the most rapid and reliable recovery option. In moderate seas, losing sight of a man overboard can occur shockingly fast. That’s why Ocean Signal’s latest rescueME MOB2 combines both AIS and VHF DSC emergency technology in the latest AIS class M-compliant solution for the maritime market.
Upon activation, the MOB2’s location is regularly updated and displayed on an AIS-enabled plotters. With its integrated GPS, the MOB2 provides precise location data to your vessel and any assisting vessels. Nearby vessels are automatically alerted to man-overboard situations through VHF DSC. The Ocean Signal MOB2 is nearly half the size of the competing products and fits perfectly inside inflatable lifejackets. It also boasts a longer operating life, automatic activation via an inflatable lifejacket, dual IR and White strobe lights, and NFC mobile app connectivity.
The MOB2 sends the first alert within 15 seconds, broadcasting your precise location using AIS technology to nearby vessels and onboard navigation systems. It communicates with the vessel you’ve been separated from and other vessels up to 5 miles away, depending on conditions. Additionally, nearby vessels are instantly notified of the man-overboard situation through DSC technology.
