Detailed description

Designed for demanding sailors, the Raymarine Cyclone 4' open array antenna (E70629) is a key component of the Cyclone open array radar series. This unit is intended for integration into a complete radar system, providing advanced target detection and tracking capabilities through Doppler technology.

Design and Technical Specifications

The Cyclone 4' open array antenna has a maximum length of 1374 mm in rotation. Its design includes M10 mounting points (4 positions) spaced 70 mm apart, ensuring a secure installation on a compatible mast base. The minimum cable bend radius is 52 mm, allowing flexibility when routing power and data connections. Cable exits are available at the rear and center of the unit, offering installation options.

System Integration and Performance

The E70629 antenna is compatible with Raymarine multifunction displays running LightHouse software, enabling access to Doppler and ARPA (Automatic Radar Plotting Aid) target acquisition features. Unlike smaller radar domes such as the Raymarine Quantum, the Cyclone 4' open array antenna is optimized for longer ranges and better target separation, suitable for vessels requiring detailed radar monitoring. For full operation, it requires a mast base and a VCM100 voltage converter module, sold separately.

« Technical analysis of the Raymarine Cyclone 4' radar antenna »

The Raymarine Cyclone 4' (E70629) beam antenna is designed for recreational boaters and professionals seeking a significant upgrade over compact radar domes. This model delivers superior resolution and range, essential for detailed coastal navigation, detecting small targets at sea, or sport fishing applications. Its 4-foot size strikes an effective balance between performance and footprint, making it suitable for cruising sailboats and mid-to-large motorboats where a 6-foot antenna would be excessive.

During installation, it is critical to plan cable routing with attention to the minimum bend radius of 52 mm and the choice between rear or central exit options. Positioning the VCM100 module, which powers the antenna and manages data, should be optimized to minimize power cable lengths while ensuring adequate ventilation. Although physical installation of the antenna on the mast step is standard with its M10 fastenings, special care must be taken to align the centerline to ensure radar data accuracy. This antenna is a relevant choice for users who already own a compatible Raymarine MFD (e.g., Axiom series) and wish to extend their radar capabilities with Cyclone series Doppler technology, without the extreme performance requirements of Pro versions.
