FS-1562 250W
Furuno FS-1562 250W is a GMDSS MF/HF radio installation listed in the supplied equipment record. It is normally installed in the bridge radio console or dedicated radio station with antenna tuner, transmitting antenna and emergency power interfaces. Its primary purpose is to provide medium- and high-frequency voice and digital distress, safety and operational communications beyond normal VHF range. Compared with VHF radio, MF/HF equipment provides longer-range communication and usually includes an automatic antenna tuner and more complex antenna and grounding arrangements. The model designation identifies a particular manufacturer configuration, but the supplied record does not define every hardware, material, control, or certification difference to adjacent models. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, materials, connection details, and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
