Cortex® V1 Hub VHF Radio with smartAIS® Transponder and Remote Vessel Monitoring

It will change your VHF experience forever. With an intuitive touchscreen handset engineered for durability, the Cortex V1 communications hub integrates strong, clear audio with the power of AIS collision avoidance — plus remote systems monitoring and control from onboard or ashore.

With up to 85 dBA of crystal-clear audio power, the Cortex V1 system delivers superior sound quality.	The included Cortex H1™ handset offers easy one-hand operation with touchscreen, click-wheel and select keys.	A built-in AIS transponder proactively warns you of certain collision threats with voiced alerts.	Quickly initiate DSC direct calls by tapping the AIS boat symbol on the handset’s touchscreen.	Cortex apps let you monitor boat systems, receive alerts and remotely control devices from your compatible smartphone.	The NMEA 2000® network allows you to view Cortex data on your connected MFDs and chartplotters.

The power of VHF and AIS combined

• Cortex is the world's first VHF with high speed SOTDMA AIS transponder technology, making your boat visible to others
• A built-in heading sensor tells other vessels your direction, helping them more accurately predict potential collisions
• Be armed with critical information about vessels, AIS marks (AtoNs) and man overboard devices on your MFD, mobile or Cortex handset

Collision Avoidance & One-Touch DSC

• Cortex continuously calculates crossing situations and generates collision alarms for critical action 
• Alerts if your anchor is dragging, and activates MOB alarms for immediate retrieval 
• Instead of ambiguous bells or tones, Cortex sounds the alarm with voiced alerts that escalate until acknowledged
• Continuously view crossing situations, navigation light sectors, and complete trial maneuvers while talking on the VHF radio
• Initiate direct calls (DSC) with other vessels by simply tapping the vessel on your handset touchscreen 
• Initiate VHF calls to friends or quickly hail another vessel when every second counts

Monitor

• Cortex combines built-in sensors and NMEA2000 connectivity with free basic monitoring 
• Using cellular connectivity, you can view twice-daily updates of power, location, wind, depth, bilge, temperature, and more on their smartphones 
• The Cortex Monitor Premium subscription unlocks real-time vessel status, instant alerts, and device control for boat systems like refrigerators, icemakers, lights, or heaters

Anchor Watch

• Sleep soundly or explore with abandon knowing that your boat is exactly where you anchored it
• By combining your position and heading, Cortex will determine if your anchor drags 
• If your boat moves outside your anchor swing radius the alarm will sound on Cortex handsets and your smartphone
• Receive alerts while ashore via the Cortex Monitor App on your smartphone
• Cortex will keep watch and alert you about changes in water depth, wind speed, or direction while you are anchored
