ICOM HM-195GW távmikrofon

The HM-195GW (Command Mic™) is a remote control interface. It allows you to operate your fixed Icom VHF radio from a secondary navigation station, such as a cockpit or flybridge, by replicating all functions of the main unit.

Yes, absolutely. Integrating the HM-195GW gives you full access to Digital Selective Calling (DSC) management, allowing you to send a distress alert directly from your secondary helm station.

Yes, its design is ruggedized for the marine environment. Its waterproof housing provides effective protection against spray and harsh weather, allowing for exposed outdoor installation (such as on a flybridge) without risk of damage.

Yes, the HM-195GW turns your network into a full intercom system. You can communicate directly between the remote microphone and the main VHF station, making exchanges with other crew members easier.

The IC-M410BB modular system allows connecting up to two Command Mic™ stations simultaneously to manage onboard communications.

The microphone is equipped with an instant access button to channel 16. This ensures optimal and immediate responsiveness in case of an emergency situation at sea.

Yes, the HM-195GW has a backlit display that ensures perfect readability of data, whether in full sunlight or during nighttime navigation.

No, the remote microphone is directly powered by the main VHF radio via its connection cable. No additional power supply is required during installation.

No, the HM-195GW is not a standalone radio. It is a remote control interface that must be connected to a compatible Icom VHF radio to function.

No, the Command Mic™ HM-195GW uses a proprietary communication protocol. It is exclusively compatible with Icom VHF radios listed in its specifications.

No, one of the major advantages of the HM-195GW is that it faithfully replicates the ergonomics, menus, and display of the main unit. You don’t need to learn a new interface.

The microphone connects to the main VHF using a dedicated extension cable. This cable plugs into the specific port located at the back of the radio or on the black box.

Yes, the microphone can be disconnected from its base. It is also recommended to replace the watertight cap on the deck socket connector when the handset is unplugged, to protect the contacts from marine corrosion.

Yes, this is not just a microphone but a complete handset. It includes a speaker that allows you to clearly hear VHF communications and intercom exchanges.

Thanks to its waterproofing, the most common installation locations are:
