RESCUEME PLB3 406/AIS/RLS
RescueME PLB3
With the introduction of Automatic Identification System (AIS) functionality, Return Link Service (RLS) technology, and Near Field Communication (NFC) capabilities in one 406 MHz Personal Locator Beacon (PLB), the new Ocean Signal rescueME PLB3 represents a significant step forward in the evolution of PLBs. The merging of 406 MHz and AIS distress messaging effectively pairs both global and local rescue, thereby maximizing access to the most effective rescue resources available. In addition, NFC capability provides users with the worlds first smartphone connected PLB and the all-new Return Link Service feature provides users with the comfort in knowing that their distress message has been received and their location detected by worldwide Search and Rescue personnel.
As a leading innovator in life-saving products for both professional and recreational use, Ocean Signal is proud to offer the PLB3 AIS Personal Locator Beacon. As the worlds FIRST PLB with AIS and the worlds FIRST PLB to include NFC and mobile app, theres no need to justify why the PLB3 should be your FIRST choice.
Introducing the Award Winning Ocean Signal rescueME PLB3 AIS Personal Locator Beacon, now free mobile app. The PLB3 transmits on the worldwide Cospas Sarsat satellite system which includes 3 different constellations to ensure your 406 MHz distress signal immediately reaches the global network of Search and Rescue forces with your location accurate to within 100 meters. With multiple levels of integrated signaling technology including 406 MHz and GNSS (GPS, Galileo, Glonass) positioning, the PLB3 also transmits a 121.5 MHz homing signal which guides Search and Rescue services to the beacons current location when they arrive on the scene, as the beacon may have drifted from the originally transmitted position. The addition of AIS (Automatic Identification System) transmissions means the PLB3 AIS Personal Locator Beacon simultaneously alerts all vessels equipped with AIS transponders within the VHF radio range of the PLBs distress position. This greatly increases both the likelihood and speed of rescue since nearby vessels receive the alerts. Immediately upon deployment of the beacon an AIS Safety Message or MOB Alarm with the beacons MMSI and location is presented on any AIS screen within range. This makes it easy for nearby vessels to home in on the beacon since it is an active AIS target on their screens.
The PLB3 will light the way as rescuer arrive on scene with both a white visible strobe and infrared strobe providing rescuers with the visual reference they need during nighttime or other low visibility rescue operations.
