SAILOR HF SSB 500W PEP SYSTEM 4000 GMDSS

POWERFUL COMMUNICATION

FAR FROM HOME

Thrane & Thrane has more than 50 years experience in developingand manufacturing solutions for marine and point-to-point communi-cation. The SAILOR HF SSB system not only fully complies with all GMDSS safety requirements, it also sets new standards in compactness, flexibility and convenience, making it a market leaderin the field of professional HF radio-telephones.

The SAILOR HF SSB 500W system offers voice transmission, DigitalSelective Calling (DSC) and telex operation from one compact, multifunction control unit. In addition, the unique SAILOR HF SSBset-up includes a microprocessor-controlled aerial unit, which automatically matches the impedance of 7-18 metres antennas, and finally, an outstanding transceiver unit with a combined 1 or 6-channel DSC and telex modem and a state-of-the-art MF/HF control unit.

Thanks to the system’s logical user menus, accessing the most frequently used functions, such as radio operation, requires only the simplest of entries using the back-lit soft keys on the front panel of the control unit.

In a standard GMDSS telex configuration, a monitor or VDU/messageprocessor is not needed. The GMDSS requirements for a radio telex system are fulfilled by using the function keys of the keyboardfor dedicated telex functions, and by showing all received and transmitted messages directly on the printer. If a SAILOR HF SSB500W is included in a System 4000 GMDSS set-up which is to beused intensively for radio telex transmission, a SAILOR TT-3606EMessage Data Terminal can be connected to the transceiver unit.

Dedicating a data terminal to the radio telex in a GMDSS set-upmakes it possible to monitor the telex communication, and the automated telex facilities makes it very simple to run the ship’s telex traffic unattended.

The SAILOR HF SSB 500W system includes a 12/24-32V DC supply. A separate AC power supply can be delivered as either 1-phase or 3-phase, as well as a separate battery charger. This makes theSAILOR HF SSB 500W program even more flexible, integrated, andeasy to install.
