Simrad 38-9
Single frequency, single beam, low power
transducer connection
This is the termination of the transducer cable from a single
frequency, single beam transducer to the transducer socket on the
General Purpose Transceiver Unit (GPT). The other end of the
cable is permanently fixed to the transducer.
All transducer cables must be run in steel conduits. Use a flexible
conduit closer to the transceiver.
Low power output is achieved when the GPT is equipped with
a single transmitter board. In most systems, this will result in
a 2 kW output power, but older GPTs may only be capable of
supplying 1 kW.
