No, the AIS receiver station does not produce harmful radiation.

Explicitly designed to receive data, not to transmit it, the AIS receiver station operates without emitting any radiation that could be considered harmful. Its function is to capture and process signals transmitted by other devices, ensuring that it remains a safe and non-intrusive component of your maritime equipment.

The technology behind AIS (Automatic Identification System) is inherently low-power regarding reception, focusing on detecting signals rather than broadcasting them. This means that, unlike transmitters, which can emit radio frequency energy, receivers like those in AIS stations are designed with safety in mind, minimizing the potential for harmful exposure.

In summary, you can confidently use your AIS receiver station, knowing that it does not contribute to any radiation concerns. Its primary role is to enhance maritime tracking and safety without impacting your health.
