Marine EPIRB
SmartFind G8 AIS & Kannad SafePro AIS EPIRBs
An Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) is a safety device
carried by a vessel to alert search and rescue services and allow them to
quickly locate you in the event of an emergency. When activated it transmits a
coded message on the 406 MHz distress frequency which is monitored by the
Cospas-Sarsat satellite system. The alert is then relayed via an earth station
to the nearest Rescue Coordination Centre (RCC). With an EPIRB you can summon
help wherever you are on the planet, subscription free, no matter how remote!
