Cortex V1 VHF Radio with Remote Boat Monitoring and Control

Cortex V1 is an advanced, multi-station VHF radio with remote monitoring and control capabilities.

The Cortex-V1 system includes a Cortex-M1 hub and a Cortex-H1 tethered handset. Connect additional Cortex handsets (sold separately) for even more freedom and control on board.

Cortex smartAIS continuously monitors AIS information from other boats and calculates crossing situations, generates collision alarms, and provides easy-to-understand avoidance cues. Data from its built-in heading sensor is also broadcast, allowing other vessels to identify the direction your boat is moving.

Both portable and power-tethered style Cortex handsets connect wirelessly via Wi-Fi® link to the Cortex M1 hub. Keep a portable handset with you for continual VHF communications access from anywhere on your boat.

Cortex lets you initiate DSC direct calls with other vessels by simply tapping the vessel icon on your handset. Initiate VHF calls to friends or quickly hail another vessel when every second counts.

Whether you’re onboard or ashore, you can know for sure your boat is securely anchored. Cortex smartAIS accurately tracks boat movement, heading, and bow position, alerting you if your anchor drags.

The Cortex VHF radio puts out up to 85 dBA of powerful, crystal-clear audio so that you won’t miss critical communications.

Need to catch someone’s attention? Easily sound preset horn signals or speak through your loudspeaker with any Cortex handset or the Cortex Onboard smart-device app.

Multiple Cortex H1 and Cortex H1P handsets can be connected to each hub. Up to 5 can connect directly to the Cortex Network, with an additional 5 through an existing boat network for increased range on larger vessels.
