DSC500PRO-M Includes All DSC500-PRO

Cloaking Enabling Electronic View to Only Those in Your Group Group and Individual Position/Data Scrambling Optional Voice Recorder Interface Interfaces to Optional L-3 ECS for Positional Display/Tracking/Logging Optional Receive and Transmit Antenna Ports Enabling Use of Only Two Antennas for all VHFs on Board

DSC500PRO-M
The DSC500PRO-M is a GMDSS Class A radio that provides the original high performance functionality of the DSC500PRO radio with an additional cloaking feature. Cloaking allows users to view other vessels without the other vessels knowledge and ability to view the DSC500PRO-M user. The DSC500PRO-M also allows scrambled data to be sent over airways without the possibility of unscrambling interception. Designed to suit Military and Law Enforcement communication needs Offers DSC calling to individual radios and groups Clear or Scrambled Voice, Text, and Position Information Computer Interfaces and Control Lat/Long can be used to verify the identity of another vessel or radar target Creates Vessel ID database Used for command and control of small vessels MMSI lists can be loaded onto aircraft, ships, or shore based DSCs ID transmission match and automatic vessel tracking Position requests and response tracking Electronic position requests on lost or distressed vessels and can proceed to the subject when an electronic answer is received
