GMDSS VHF Radio with Class A DSC
The GM600 is a GMDSS (Global Maritime Distress and Safety System) VHF radiotelephone which can be used as a part of GMDSS system equipment required by SOLAS or many domestic maritime regulations. When installed with the GM800 MF/HF radio, GM600 and GM800 radios provides an ideal GMDSS VHF, MF and HF radio station.
Meets Strict Environmental Requirements
The GM600 has passed rigorous environmental testing and quality assurance process. The GM600 is designed to provide reliable operation and long-lasting durability under harsh maritime environments. In fact, the front panel has IPX7 protection (1m depth of water for 30 minutes) and the rear panel has corrosion resistance coating.
Meets ITU-R M.493-13 DSC
Provides Loud, Clear Audio
Intuitive User Interface
DC-DC Converter PS-310
The optional DC-DC converter PS-310 supplies a stable 12.6 V of power to the GM600 from either a 12 V or 24 V power source (depending on version) and provides a floating ground connection. The PS-310 protects the radio from momentary power interruption. The PS-310 must be used with the GM600 for MED certification compliance.
Other Features
- IEC 61162-1 interface for GNSS receiver
- Supports new four-digit marine channels* effective from January 1st, 2017
