Before installing select a suitable location for the AIS WI-FI GATEWAY

Routing of power and NMEA0183 interfacing cables to the unit.
Provision of sufficient space below the unit for cable connections
and access to reset switch.
Best location for Wifi reception i.e. central location within the
vessel, not inside a metal enclosure, etc.
Installation Step 1 - Cabling
