Key Features & Technology

9-Input Multi-Sensor Switching

2× DVI-D, VGA, DisplayPort, and 4× composite video inputs (9 total) — display radar, sonar, CCTV, and chartplotter on a single screen with RS232/IP remote control and on-screen source switching.

IPS Panel — 2000:1 Contrast, 89° Viewing

IPS panel with 1,000+ nit brightness, 2000:1 contrast ratio, and 89° viewing angles on all four sides — accurate colour rendering for multi-crew bridge use. Resolutions from 1024×768 (15") to 1920×1080 (21.5").

Optical Bonding & Anti-Glare

Optically bonded glass eliminates the internal air gap — prevents condensation fogging and dramatically improves contrast in direct tropical sunlight without a shade hood.

PCAP Touch — HDCP Compliant

Projected capacitive multi-touch panel with HDCP compliance for secure content sources — accurate tracking through saltwater spray and gloved operation. Parameter adjustments via front keypad.

0-to-Max Smooth Dimming

Full-range keypad-controlled dimming from absolute zero to maximum brightness — preserves crew night vision during dark-adapted navigation without abrupt brightness steps.

SCC Command Control Compatible

Pairs with the Seatronx SCC modular digital switching system — replaces legacy video matrix switchers and centralises bridge source management. Also compatible with Garmin GPSMAP 8700 for USCG ECS-compliant installations.
