Detailed description
Detailed description
Designed for offshore navigation and commercial fishing, the FURUNO XN12A 4' beam antenna delivers high-resolution radar imaging. This antenna is a key component for modern radar systems, capable of providing accurate data for target detection and optimization of marine routes. It is designed to integrate with Furuno DRS series radar pedestals, offering a robust solution for demanding marine environments.
Technical Specifications and Performance
The XN12A antenna has a length of 4 feet (approximately 1255 mm), with a horizontal beamwidth of 1.9° and a vertical beamwidth of 22°. Its relative side lobes are -24 dB (within 10°) and -30 dB (beyond 10°), contributing to improved target separation. With an antenna gain of 28.5 dBi, it ensures efficient signal reception. The unit supports relative winds up to 100 knots and weighs 5.8 kg (antenna only). The system requires a 24V power supply.
Advanced Features for Navigation and Fishing
The XN12A beam antenna supports advanced radar functions such as SART and RACON detection, Bird Mode, Dual Range, and Target Tracking™. The Bird Mode is specifically optimized for identifying bird flocks at a distance, a useful feature for locating fishing grounds. The Target Analyzer™ function uses Doppler technology to instantly distinguish dangerous moving targets (displayed in red) from stationary or receding targets (displayed in green). Fast Target Tracking™ and Auto Target Acquire enable rapid and simultaneous tracking of up to 100 targets. Furuno’s exclusive RezBoost™ technology enhances image resolution, providing a detailed display with fewer artifacts.
Integration and System Compatibility
The FURUNO XN12A 4' beam antenna is compatible with various Furuno DRS series radar pedestals, including models DRS6AX, DRS12AX, DRS25AX, DRS6ANXT, DRS12ANXT, and DRS25ANXT. It is designed for integration with Furuno NavNet TZtouch, TZtouch2, and TZtouch3 multifunction displays, requiring specific software versions for optimal operation. When paired with compatible DRS-NXT pedestals, this antenna is part of a solid-state Doppler radar system without a magnetron, reducing warm-up time and power consumption. Commercial-grade construction with anti-corrosion materials ensures resistance to harsh marine environments.
