Raymarine’s fixed mount Ray90 modular VHF radio brings multi-station
communications to a whole new level of power, performance, and flexibility. The
Ray90 is a black-box design with a transceiver that hides out of sight while the
ergonomic RayMic handset and remote speaker provide full control of the radio
with crystal clear audio.
Key Features
- Black box, multi-station capable VHF radio
- NEW - Wireless handset and active speaker available
- Wired handset and passive speaker included
- Expandable to 2 handsets
- Built-in loudhailer and fog signal generator
- Optional external GPS
- Simple NMEA2000 and NMEA0183 Networking
-
Ray90 is equipped with a powerful 25-watt transmitter and commercial grade
electronics for long life and superior performance. Channel scanning,
dual-watch, tri-watch and weather alert are standard. Class D Digital
Selective Calling radio and integrated GPS makes setting up the advanced
safety and calling features easy. Simply input your vessel’s MMSI number
during setup and you’re ready to go. For GPS operation the optional GA150
passive GPS antenna is required.
Position Tracking
Use Ray90’s position tracking feature to keep tabs on up to 5 nearby DSC
equipped vessels. Their positions are automatically shared with your Raymarine
MFD. Keep an eye on other boats in your cruising party, monitor vessels of
interest, or manage your local fleet. In Europe the Ray90 supports the ATIS
system on navigable inland waterways.
Loudhailer
Ray90’s built-in loudhailer will make you heard on-deck and across the
harbour. Connect an optional hailing horn and make your presence known with
30-watts of audio output, plus 2-way talkback. When things get foggy, the
loudhailer can also be set to automatically sound required fog signals for
power and sailing vessels underway and at anchor.
Waterproof & Ruggedized
Ray90’s transceiver unit is cast in solid aluminum for shock and vibration
resistance and maximum heat dissipation. RayMic handsets feature super-bright
backlighting for easy viewing in all conditions and oversized keys provide a
sure grip with easy access to commonly used functions.
Expand Your System
The Ray90 system includes 1 RayMic wired handset and a passive speaker kit.
Expand your system with an additional RayMic handset and remote speaker. For
noisy environments choose the optional active remote speaker. No matter how
small or how large your vessel is, the Ray90 all the power and performance you
need for essential communications on the water.
