Introducing the Furuno FM4800 VHF Radio
The FM4800 is a cutting-edge marine VHF radio equipped with AIS, GPS, and Simplified Loud Hailer functionality. With its compact design, it is perfect for any size vessel, including those with limited space like center-console boats. This unit can be easily mounted using its lightweight bracket or can be flush mounted for a sleeker look.
With built-in Class D DSC, a GPS receiver, and an AIS receiver, the FM4800 simplifies communication and navigation. Its GPS functionality doesn’t require an external source, enabling reliable operation and allowing it to serve as a backup GPS for onboard systems. Additionally, the AIS receiver enhances situational awareness by allowing for the overlay of AIS targets on compatible devices.
Smart Connectivity for Enhanced Safety
The FM4800 offers seamless integration with NMEA0183 and NMEA2000 systems. When connected to compatible NavNet TZtouch2 displays, this VHF radio allows for direct DSC calls with just a touch, enhancing emergency responsiveness. In situations such as a Man Overboard, the FM4800 can be activated quickly for distress calls, ensuring safety during critical times.
Innovative Loud Hailer & Intercom Functionality
This versatile unit not only serves as a VHF radio but also includes a simplified Loud Hailer with eight alert sound patterns, enhancing onboard safety. With intercom capabilities, it allows for easy communication between crew members. The Listen Back feature captures external sounds, facilitating communication between the deck and the helm, making it especially beneficial for fishing and workboats.
