Raymarine Cyclone Pedestal - 55W
Raymarine Cyclone Pedestal - 55W — Product description
Upgrade your vessel's situational awareness with the Raymarine Cyclone Pedestal 55W, a powerhouse in solid-state marine radar technology. This pedestal-only unit packs a 55-watt transmitter that punches like a traditional 6kW magnetron system, delivering crystal-clear target separation across vast distances up to 72 nautical miles. Whether you're navigating foggy coastal waters, tracking distant vessels, or spotting flocks of birds for prime fishing spots, this radar pedestal transforms your helm into a command center of precision and reliability.
Why Choose Solid-State Power for Your Radar System?
Solid-state radars like the Cyclone 55W eliminate the hassles of magnetron-based systems—no lengthy warm-up times, no high-voltage risks, and unmatched durability in harsh marine environments. With CHIRP pulse compression and advanced beam sharpening, echoes pop with exceptional clarity, even in cluttered seas. Mariners rave about its instant-on capability, firing up in under 5 seconds from standby, keeping you proactive rather than reactive during critical moments.
Standout Features That Set Cyclone Apart
- Cyclone Bird Mode: Pinpoint bird flocks with specialized sensitivity, guiding you straight to bait balls and hot fishing grounds without guesswork.
- RangeFusion™ Technology: Merges short- and long-range scans into one seamless, clutter-free image for comprehensive coverage from close-quarters docking to horizon-spanning watches.
- High-Speed 60 RPM Imaging: Blazing-fast rotation rates deliver real-time updates, ideal for high-speed boating or dynamic search-and-rescue operations.
- Variable Beam Control: Adjust scan speeds and resolutions on the fly to match conditions—slow for detailed coastal scans or turbo for open-ocean sweeps.
- ARPA Target Tracking: Monitors up to 50 targets with Doppler-enhanced velocity data, alerting you to potential collisions before they become threats.
Seamless Integration with Raymarine Ecosystems
Designed exclusively for open array antennas, this white pedestal mates effortlessly with Raymarine's Axiom family of multifunction displays. Pair it with your choice of 24-, 36-, or 48-inch Cyclone arrays (sold separately) and cables for a plug-and-play setup via RayNet networking. It thrives on 12V or 24V DC systems, sipping just 28 watts in standby to preserve battery life during long passages.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Raymarine Cyclone 55W pedestal better than traditional magnetron radars?
Solid-state technology offers instant-on operation, no high-voltage components for safer reliability, and superior target discrimination through CHIRP processing, all without the maintenance headaches of magnetrons.
How far can the Cyclone 55W radar detect targets?
It achieves a maximum range of 72 nautical miles, with excellent resolution for both long-distance navigation and close-in maneuvering.
Does the Cyclone pedestal include an antenna?
No, this is the pedestal only. Select compatible open array antennas separately to complete your Cyclone radar system.
What displays work with the Raymarine Cyclone 55W?
It integrates seamlessly with Raymarine Axiom, Axiom+, Axiom Pro, and Axiom XL displays via RayNet, enhancing your multifunction display network.
Is the Cyclone 55W suitable for fishing boats?
Absolutely—Cyclone Bird Mode excels at detecting surface birds over fish schools, while high-speed scanning keeps up with trolling speeds.
How rugged is the Cyclone pedestal in bad weather?
IPX6 waterproofing, -25°C to +55°C operation, and 100-knot wind tolerance make it battle-ready for offshore adventures.
What's the power draw like for battery-powered boats?
Ultra-efficient at 28W standby and 70W typical transmit, it's gentle on batteries during extended trips.
With a 55 Watt solid-state transmitter, Cyclone delivers excellent target separation and long-range resolution using CHIRP pulse compression and beam sharpening technology.
