2105, 2100 specifications

Furuno, a leading manufacturer in marine electronics, has a reputation for producing high-quality navigation and communication equipment. Two notable products in their lineup are the Furuno 2100 and 2105, both of which are advanced radar systems designed to enhance maritime safety and efficiency. These systems offer a comprehensive suite of features that cater to the needs of both professional and recreational mariners.

The Furuno 2100 is a powerful radar system equipped with a high-resolution display that provides clear and detailed imagery of the surrounding environment. It utilizes Furuno's advanced pulse compression technology, which enables the system to detect small targets and threats even in cluttered conditions. The high-definition radar imagery offers mariners the ability to distinguish between various objects, greatly improving situational awareness.

In contrast, the Furuno 2105 builds upon the robust features of the 2100 while adding enhanced capabilities. One of the standout characteristics of the 2105 is its dual-range function, allowing operators to monitor two different radar ranges simultaneously. This feature is invaluable during navigation, as it permits mariners to keep track of both immediate surroundings and distant targets without the need for constant adjustments.

Another noteworthy technology in both models is Furuno's Automatic Target Plotting Aid (ATPA), which intelligently tracks moving targets and provides crucial information about their speed and course. This automated system significantly reduces the workload on the operator, allowing them to focus on navigation and other critical tasks.

Additionally, both radar systems boast excellent weather resistance and ruggedness, making them suitable for challenging maritime environments. The displays are designed to minimize glare and enhance visibility, ensuring that mariners can access crucial information at a glance, irrespective of lighting conditions.

Integration is another key feature of the Furuno 2100 and 2105. Both models can be easily connected to a variety of navigation systems, allowing for streamlined operation and data sharing. This interconnectivity enhances the functionality of onboard systems, creating a cohesive and efficient navigation experience.

In summary, the Furuno 2100 and 2105 radar systems are exceptional tools for enhancing maritime safety and operational efficiency. With features like high-resolution displays, dual-range capabilities, and advanced target tracking technology, these systems stand out as reliable choices for mariners seeking top-tier navigational support. Whether for professional or recreational use, the Furuno 2100 and 2105 continue to set standards in marine radar technology.
