Pack VHF fixa GMDSS GM600 24V

The Icom GM600 fixed VHF is certified MED (Marine Equipment Directive) and SOLAS. It also complies with international IMO and IEC standards, ensuring absolute reliability for distress and safety communications at sea.

This radio communication equipment is designed and approved to ensure the safety of vessels operating in maritime zones A1 and A2 under the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS).

The GM600 VHF delivers a maximum RF output power of 25 W for long-range communications. It can also be switched to 1 W for short-range exchanges, saving energy and reducing interference.

Yes, the GM600 VHF front panel has an IPX7 rating. This means it is fully protected against water splashes and can withstand temporary immersion up to 1 meter deep for 30 minutes.

The GM600 VHF is a compact unit designed to fit easily into your helm station. Its overall dimensions are 274 × 114 × 121.5 mm and it weighs approximately 1.6 kg.

Yes, the pack includes the HM-214V hand microphone. Like the radio’s front panel, this microphone is waterproof certified to IPX7 standards for safe use even in wet conditions.

This specific pack is designed for direct 24 V DC power supply, with a tolerance range from 21.6 to 31.2 V. The device can also operate on a 12 V DC network (10.8 to 15.6 V) depending on your vessel's configuration.

Yes. The GM600 VHF integrates an ASN (Digital Selective Calling or DSC in English) Class A receiver. It uses Channel 70 (156.525 MHz), permanently dedicated to distress alert monitoring and transmission.

Integration with navigation instruments is done via the standardized IEC 61162-1 interface. Simply connect the corresponding data wires so the VHF receives the vessel's exact position in real time.

For position data reception, the VHF interface accepts NMEA sentences in RMC, GGA, GNS, GLL, and VTG formats.

The GM600 VHF transmits Digital Selective Calling (DSC) data to other onboard equipment using DSC and DSE output sentences.

Yes, it is perfectly possible to connect an external speaker. The radio has excellent amplification capability, delivering 10 W audio power to an external 4 Ω speaker.

If you are not using an external speaker, the internal speaker of the VHF GM600 delivers a clear audio output of 2 W, which is more than sufficient for a standard bridge environment.

The VHF covers the standard marine frequency range. Transmission (Tx) is from 156.025 to 161.600 MHz, while reception (Rx) covers 156.025 to 162.000 MHz.

The VHF can be installed in two ways: either mounted on a bracket, or flush-mounted directly into the chart table console for a professional finish and optimal space savings.

The device must be connected to the vessel's 24V battery bank using a DC power cable with an appropriate cross-section to handle a peak current of approximately 3.3 A at full power transmission.

Yes, the GM600 VHF connects to any standard marine VHF antenna operating in the 156 MHz band with 50 ohm impedance. The connection is made via the antenna port located at the rear of the unit.

Yes, with its SOLAS and MED (wheelmark) certifications, the VHF GM600 fully meets the equipment carriage requirements for passenger vessels and cargo ships of 500 GT (UMS) or more subject to the SOLAS convention.
