Furuno XN12A/4 Navigation Antenna
The Furuno XN12A/4 is a 4-foot navigation antenna constructed from fiberglass, designed to operate at a frequency of 1940 MHz. This unit is installed on vessels to enhance navigation capabilities through improved signal reception.
Compatibility & Applications
- Mounts on yachts and commercial vessels requiring enhanced navigation capabilities.
- Pairs with Furuno radar systems for improved tracking and navigation accuracy.
- Fits standard mounting brackets used in marine installations, ensuring straightforward setup.
- Replaces older Furuno antennas, such as the XN12 and XN14 models, without requiring additional modifications.
- Integrates with NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 systems for seamless data exchange with onboard electronics.
- Wires to existing navigation systems, facilitating easy upgrades without extensive rewiring.
The unit is installed on motorboats and sailing yachts, delivering reliable navigation data. Its robust fiberglass construction and IPX6 rating provide durability against harsh marine conditions, distinguishing it from generic antennas that lack such specifications. For instance, when installed on a 30-foot sportfish, it significantly enhances signal reception and tracking precision compared to older models.
