AIS and VHF Radio Using the Same Antenna

The Garmin AIS 300AIS 600 and AIS 800 are built with a built-in passive VHF splitter, which allows a single VHF antenna to be used for both the AIS system and a VHF radio. Since this is a passive splitter, the VHF radio will continue to operate properly, whether or not the AIS is powered.

Further instructions about installation of the AIS or VHF equipment can be found in the Owner's Manual or Installation Instructions for the device.
