Simrad Rs40 Vhf Radio W/Dsc & Ais Receiver

RS40 VHF Radio with DSC & AIS Receiver

Features:

  • Simrad RS40 Replaces the current RS35 mid level VHF, updated to comply with EN 301 025 (v2.2.1)
  • New front mountable design for easy installation
  • Low profile design to align with style of Simrad MFD’s
  • Seamless integration with a wider Simrad system through NMEA 2000 and 0183
  • Built in AIS Receiver
  • Large screen with intuitive user interface
  • Optional wireless handsets with inductive charging

Unique Selling Points:

GPS 4-Ways:

  • With the integrated GPS receiver the RS40 now has four ways to ensure you have a GPS fix in the event of an emergency.
  • A GPS antenna in the face of the radio means open air installations don’t need another antenna at all
  • An SMA connector on the rear case allows for connection to a GPS-500 antenna
  • NMEA 0183 allows you to get GPS from a chartplotter
  • NMEA 2000 means you don’t need another antenna if you already have one in your network

Built in AIS:

  • A dual-channel AIS receiver monitors the position of nearby AIS-equipped vessels, helping you to avoid collisions in crowded harbours and waterways.
  • AIS information can be viewed on the RS40’s built-in screen, or overlaid on your chart or radar screen through a compatible multifunction display.

Wireless Handset:

  • Add up to two optional wireless handsets to take your radio anywhere on board.
  • The HS40 handset was designed as an intuitive portable companion to the RS40.
  • Each handset duplicates your radio’s display and controls, enabling remote access to all key functions.
  • Having multiple stations also allows the RS40 to double as a handy on-board intercom.

Remote Mountable Fist Mic:

  • The RS40’s removable fist mic can be connected to the front or rear of the radio, and optional extension cable allows the radio and mic to be mounted separately.
  • This offers a simple and cost-effective solution for any mounting location, with no cable clutter.
  • For example, the RS40 can be mounted overhead, with no hanging cables, while the mic is connected to an extension socket on the dash below.

Mount From The Front:

  • RS40 features easily removable top and bottom bezels which reveal mounting holes allowing the same style of mounting from the front that is featured on Simrad MFDs.

Track Buddy:

Track buddy is a feature that automatically requests the position of another VHF radio. Simply enter the MMSI of the VHF into your contact list, then start tracking!

  • Track up to 5 buddies
  • Polls your contacts for their Lat/Long position automatically
  • Can be set to 1, 5, 15, 30 or 60 minute intervals
  • Displays the position on a compatible chart plotter
  • Great for keeping track of friends, family or vessels you need to know the position of that don’t have AIS

Navigation Mode:

  • Press the NAV button on the RS40 to turn it into a navigational instrument displaying your Speed and Course.
  • RS40 also contains a Man Overboard (MOB) function, hold down the NAV/MOB button to drop a waypoint on your current location and the RS40 will enter MOB mode to show you how far away you are and where you need to steer to get back to the position of the MOB event. The MOB waypoint is also transmitted over NMEA 2000 to the rest of your network.

Customer Questions
Simrad RS40 VHF will this connect to all Simrad units if they have the Nema 2000 port?? I have a EVO2 I buy a RS40 and connect the 2 via nema 2000 cable, are we up and running??
This will connect to any MFD that has a NMEA2000 port. To set up a NMEA 2000 port you should always try to get in contact with either the manufacturer of the MFD or a installer, but you can look into the NMEA 2000 starter kit if you do not already have...
Do you need a separate AIS antenna to receive AIS with this unit?
The RS40 can use the VHF antenna to receive AIS, it does not require an additional or AIS antenna
