A high-speed Ethernet-based system delivers peerless echo clarity and the
highest underwater definition. The BSM-1 Broadband Sounder Module is plug and
play compatible with the Simrad GB40 navigation systems.
- Penetrate deep waters
- Clearly define underwater structure
- 'Whisper' into the water to find more fish
- Tri-frequency capability for optimal water column performance
Penetrate deep waters
Navico Broadband Sounders provide outstanding
capability to track bottom and see structure in deep offshore terrain and
canyons over 3,000 feet.
Clearly define underwater structure
High-resolution linear receiver provides superior
clarity in shallow and mid water
'Whisper' into the water to find more fish
Navico Broadband Sounder technology matches
exceptionally low power with efficient long pulses to make the perfect
"low-noise" Sonar.
Tri-frequency capability for optimal water column
performance
Better match the frequency with your fishing
location: 200kHz for shallow inshore, 50kHz for deep offshore and 83 kHz for a
desirable blend of both.
A truly different technology
First generation digital echosounders follow
traditional methods of dumping excessive power into existing circuitry. If the
original signal is not the highest quality, then the effect is the same as
amplifying a poor quality audio system and even the best Digital Processing
can't clean up the noisy mess.
The Navico Broadband Sounder technology is a truly
different approach. The BSM-1 brings together a very clean, low power signal, an
adaptable
long pulse and an extremely sensitive linear
receiver. The resulting high quality signal and the best digital signal
processing allow the BSM-1 to provide superior clarity and fantastic echosounder
images. In addition, the long pulse widths and clean, efficient signal provide
an exponential difference in the ability to "Go Deep". No longer is power the
measure of echosounder performance. Side by side comparisons with existing
technology prove that a "whisper" is better. The Navico BSM-1 is the perfect
echosounder in waters from 10’ to over 3,000 feet.
Robust new addition for GB40
Easy-to-install anywhere, the BSM-1 is an
Ethernet-based module and waterproof to the IPx7 standard. Designed for offshore
boats, the new BSM-1 operates with 12 and 24-volt systems and has easy to read
LED status indicators. Compatibility with existing Northstar 8000i and Simrad
GB40 installations is easy with available transducer and network adapter cables.
