Description
Features
- Designed to improve the radar detection range and visibility of small targets to X- and S-band radar
- Intended for small vessels with no radar fitted and enhance the RCS (radar cross section) of vessels up to 25m in length
- Surface or flush mountable
- Control box Indicates X or S Band Radar reception by unique LEDs
- Quadruple alarm facility as standard.
- Reception frequency: X Band Radar 9.3 – 9.5 GHz & S Band Radar 2.9 – 3.1 GHz
- Dimensions : Antenna (L x W): 685 x 40.5 mm; Weight: 573 gms excl. cable
Active-XS-Dual Band Radar Target Enhancer state of the Art Echomax with minuscule current draw of 23mA on stand by and very high X and S band response many times the new ISO 8729-2 standard. Unique visual facility to identify S or X Band Radar paints. Quadruple alarm facility as standard.
The Active-XS amplifies and returns a stronger signal and these high responses to both X or S Band Radar increase the likelihood of improving your vessels radar cross section and helps to alert oncoming vessels of your position and detection especially in poor conditions and thereby reduces the risk of collision. Active RTE are increasingly being used on navigation buoys. Non use of the control box saves 10mA of power.
The Active XS has FCC Approval ID: XZMACTIVE-XS – NATO stock number 5841-99-269-3512

Echomax Active-X Radar Target Enhancer – 24m cable
State of the art Echomax Active-X-Band Radar Target Enhancer receives a signal from transmitting radar, amplifies and returns a stronger signal. This increases the likelihood of detection reducing the risk of collision and helps to alert oncoming vessels of your position. Active RTE are increasingly being used on navigation buoys and their estimated power consumption can be seen using this link. Non use of the control box saves 10mA of power.
