{"product_id":"raymarine-vhf-ray63-recepteur-gps-integre-nmea2000","title":"RAY63 VHF radio with integrated GPS receiver","description":"\u003cp\u003e\n    The \u003cstrong\u003eRay63 VHF\u003c\/strong\u003e from \u003cstrong\u003eRaymarine\u003c\/strong\u003e (part number E70516) is a fixed marine VHF radio with Digital Selective Calling (DSC) Class D and an integrated GPS\/GNSS receiver. Designed with a large LCD screen, its industrial design is specifically intended to aesthetically integrate with the Axiom multifunction displays. It is supplied as standard with bracket mounting kits and a flush-mount installation kit.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePosition within the Raymarine range\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    Within the \u003cstrong\u003eRaymarine\u003c\/strong\u003e catalog, the \u003cstrong\u003eRay63\u003c\/strong\u003e distinguishes itself from the entry-level \u003cstrong\u003eRay53\u003c\/strong\u003e model by its larger format and its ability to manage remote stations as well as an intercom function. Conversely, unlike the higher-end \u003cstrong\u003eRay73\u003c\/strong\u003e, the \u003cstrong\u003eRay63\u003c\/strong\u003e does not include an AIS receiver or a hailer function. It is thus positioned as the ideal solution for navigators requiring a complete multi-station installation (main helm and flybridge), without needing AIS reception directly on the VHF, which is typically managed by a dedicated transponder on the onboard network.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCommunication and positioning performance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    The superheterodyne dual-conversion transceiver operates on US, Canadian, and international marine bands (156.000 MHz to 157.425 MHz, and up to 161.425 MHz for private channels). Transmission power is adjustable between 1 W (low) and 25 W (high). The internal 72-channel GNSS receiver is compatible with GPS, GLONASS, and BeiDou networks, with SBAS correction support (WAAS, EGNOS). It provides a 10 Hz refresh rate and cold acquisition in under 2 minutes. For installations below deck or in metal cabins blocking the signal, a TNC connector allows the addition of an optional external GPS antenna.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNetwork connectivity and multi-station expansion\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    The \u003cstrong\u003eRay63\u003c\/strong\u003e supports NMEA 2000 (via SeaTalkng connector) and NMEA 0183 protocols for direct integration with chartplotters and onboard instrumentation. It offers advanced multi-station expansion capability by accepting a wired RayMic handset or up to two wireless RayMic stations. This configuration enables full radio control from a second helm station and intercom activation between stations. An RCA audio output is also present on the rear panel for connecting an external passive speaker.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical and electrical specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    The unit is designed to withstand marine environments with dual IPX6 (protection against sea spray) and IPX7 (immersion to 1 meter for 30 minutes) waterproof certifications. The total product weight is 2.731 kg.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003eElectrical specifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    - Nominal power supply: 12 V DC (operating range 9 V to 16 V DC)\u003cbr\u003e\n    - Protections: Built-in polarity reversal and overvoltage\u003cbr\u003e\n    - Transmit power consumption (25 W): Less than 6 A (at 13.6 V)\u003cbr\u003e\n    - Receive power consumption: 2 A\u003cbr\u003e\n    - Standby power consumption: 600 mA\u003cbr\u003e\n    - Audio power: 2.5 W at 8 Ohms for the base, 1 W at 16 Ohms for the main microphone (fistmic)\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003eEnvironmental specifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    - Operating temperature: -20 °C to +60 °C\u003cbr\u003e\n    - Storage temperature: -25 °C to +70 °C\u003cbr\u003e\n    - Maximum relative humidity: 95 %\n\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Raymarine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53723809186132,"sku":"E70516","price":559.51,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0988\/3274\/4788\/files\/main_5d1bf90c-611f-48cd-81ac-7176bf1f4928.png?v=1781449005","url":"https:\/\/skysat.fr\/en\/products\/raymarine-vhf-ray63-gps-integrated-nmea2000","provider":"Skysat","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
