Black Raymarine Quantum Q24D Doppler radar antenna with power and data cable 10m

The Quantum Q24D radar integrates Doppler processing that analyzes the movement of targets in real time. Echoes approaching your vessel are displayed in red, while those moving away appear in green. This feature significantly enhances situational awareness and safety at sea, particularly in high-traffic areas or reduced visibility conditions.

Pulse-compression CHIRP technology offers several key advantages:

High image resolution, enabling precise target detection at both short and long ranges.Low power consumption, which benefits your vessel's autonomy.Better target separation, even when targets are close to one another.

The major difference lies in the integration of Doppler processing for targets. The Quantum Q24D adds this essential layer of information, enabling instant identification of moving targets and their direction (approaching in red, receding in green), which was not available on the first generation of Quantum radars.

The physical dimensions of the Quantum Q24D radome are as follows:

Diameter: 541 mm (21.3 inches)Height: 209 mm (8.2 inches)Weight: 5.6 kg (12.3 lbs)

The typical power consumption of the Quantum Q24D radar is approximately 17 Watts in transmit mode and 7 Watts in standby mode.

Yes, the Quantum Q24D radar has an IPX6 protection rating, meaning it is protected against strong water projections and can be used in a marine environment.

Yes, the Quantum Q24D radome is supplied with a 10-metre power and data cable (RayNet to RayNet), simplifying the installation process.

The Quantum Q24D radar offers flexible connection options:

Wi-Fi connection: Enables simplified wireless connection to a compatible Raymarine multifunction display.Wired connection: Via a RayNet cable for a complete and reliable network integration.

Yes, for optimal performance, the antenna must be mounted in a location providing:

An unobstructed view in all directions, without any blockages to avoid blind spots and false echoes. A position as horizontal as possible. Sufficient safety distance from the vessel’s compasses to prevent any deviation.

Yes, it is crucial to ensure that the four bilge holes located under the radome are clear and unobstructed. These holes allow air circulation and prevent moisture buildup inside the unit.

No, the Quantum Q24D radar does not require a separate ground connection. Grounding is adequately provided via the supplied power cable.

The Wi-Fi password for your Quantum Q24D radar is printed on a label located under the radome. It is recommended to record this password and store it in a safe place for future use.

Yes, a mounting template is available to facilitate the installation of the radar antenna. It is essential to ensure that this template is printed at full scale before using it to mark the drilling points on the mounting surface.

The Quantum Q24D Doppler radar is compatible with the following Raymarine multifunction displays (MFD):

Axiom, Axiom+, Axiom Pro, Axiom XL serieseS, gS seriesa series (models a9, a12)c series (models c9, c12)e series (models e7, e9, e12, e16)

The Raymarine Doppler radar Quantum Q24D is NOT compatible with the following multifunction displays (MFD) / chartplotters:

C-Series Widescreen and E-Series Widescreen seriesC-Series Classic and E-Series Classic seriesG-Series seriesA-Series models (A65, A67, A75, A77, A78)

Yes, to ensure full compatibility and access to all features of the Quantum Q24D radar, your Raymarine multifunction display must run the latest LightHouse software version. Regular updates are available on the Raymarine website.

For the Doppler processing to work correctly, the multifunction display (MFD) must receive valid speed data. This can come from a GPS source, a speed sensor, or any other suitable source connected to the system.
