The Furuno DRS12AX 12Kw X-Band Pedestal is a professional-grade maritime radar system engineered for vessel surveillance, navigation, and collision avoidance in demanding operational environments. Built to military and commercial maritime standards, this X-band pedestal serves law enforcement, coast guard, military vessels, and commercial shipping fleets requiring reliable, long-range surface and weather detection. The pedestal-only configuration allows operators to integrate this proven Furuno system into existing installations or upgrade legacy radar infrastructure while maintaining compatibility with established antenna arrays and operational workflows.
Operating at 12 kilowatts of peak transmit power, the DRS12AX delivers high-definition target resolution and extended detection range critical for maritime domain awareness and tactical situational awareness. X-band radar frequencies (approximately 9.4 GHz) provide superior target discrimination, particularly in detecting small-profile vessels, navigation hazards, and weather patterns at extended ranges. The pedestal assembly houses the rotating antenna mechanism and RF distribution components, engineered to withstand saltwater corrosion, vibration, and weather exposure typical of marine environments. This configuration requires separate cable assemblies (sold separately per manufacturer specification effective 06/20/2024) for integration with radar processing units and display systems, allowing flexible installation tailored to vessel topology and operational requirements.
Maritime operations personnel, vessel systems integrators, and military procurement specialists benefit from this pedestal's proven Furuno architecture and scalable deployment across diverse vessel classes. Installation requires professional-grade cabling and integration with compatible Furuno radar processors and navigation displays; operators should confirm cable specifications and connector compatibility before ordering. The 45-pound pedestal assembly is designed for mast-top or superstructure mounting, with weight distribution and installation hardware varying by vessel class and mounting platform. This component is ideal for organizations modernizing existing radar systems or establishing new tactical maritime surveillance capabilities with enterprise-level reliability and support infrastructure backing Furuno professional-grade systems.
