Furuno DRS6AX – 6kW UHD Digital Radar with 3.5-Foot Open Array
Slicing through coastal rain clutter with UHD processing, a Furuno DRS6AX marine radar pairs a 3.5-foot open array with 6kW magnetron power, resolving 30 targets across 64 nautical miles over 12V/24V power at 44.1 lbs.
- 6kW magnetron output scans 64 miles
- 3.5-foot radiator fits space-conscious hardtops
- Dual-range scan monitors near and far
- IP56 weatherproof pedestal withstands ocean spray
Add traditional magnetron open-array radar coverage to a compatible Furuno system with the DRS6AX 6 kW UHD Digital Radar and 3.5-foot array. The 6 kW transmitter and 2.3° horizontal beam provide practical target separation for coastal cruising, offshore fishing, and workboat operations while maintaining a more compact footprint than larger arrays. Need a dual-range radar platform that uses a familiar magnetron design? The DRS6AX supports UHD digital processing, target tracking, and 24/36/48 RPM rotation through compatible NavNet displays.
Integration
The DRS6AX requires a compatible Furuno NavNet MFD and Furuno Ethernet connection for radar display and control. NMEA 2000 can supply GPS, heading, AIS, autopilot, and other vessel-sensor data, but radar video is carried through Ethernet. Target tracking and radar overlay require compatible heading and position inputs.
The 64 NM figure is an instrumented range, not a guaranteed target-detection distance. Actual results depend on array height, target size, weather, rain, sea clutter, vessel motion, radar settings, and the quality of the radar installation.
Before Ordering
Confirm compatible Furuno NavNet display support, Ethernet network capacity, 12V/24V power availability, 3.5-foot rotation clearance, platform strength, cable lengths, heading/GPS sensor requirements, and professional installation support before ordering.
