Xdcr, Xsonic, 50/200KHz, 1KW, Transom — Product description
Discover the power of precise underwater detection with this high-performance transom-mount depth transducer. Designed for serious anglers and boating enthusiasts, it delivers exceptional clarity across a wide range of depths, from shallow bays to deep offshore waters. Whether you're chasing trophy fish or navigating tricky bottoms, this robust unit combines dual-frequency technology with advanced signal processing for reliable readings every time.
Standout Features for Superior Performance
- Dual-Frequency Operation: Seamlessly switches between 50kHz for broad coverage in deep water (up to 3,000+ feet) and 200kHz for sharp, detailed images in shallower zones (ideal down to just a few feet).
- High-Power Output: 1kW capability ensures strong signal penetration, even in challenging conditions like heavy currents or thermoclines.
- Integrated Diplexer: Allows both frequencies to run through a single cable, simplifying your setup and reducing clutter on your boat.
- Advanced Sensors: Built-in XID for automatic transducer identification and plug-and-play compatibility, plus analog/digital temperature sensing for real-time water temp data.
- Durable Construction: Impact-resistant plastic housing withstands the rigors of saltwater exposure, trailering, and rough handling.
- Generous Cable Length: 10 meters (33 feet) of cable with a reliable 9-pin black connector for flexible routing to your display unit.
Why It Excels in Real-World Boating
This transducer shines in diverse scenarios. The wide 42-degree beam at 50kHz paints a massive picture of the seafloor, perfect for spotting structure or schools from afar. Flip to 200kHz's narrower 20-degree beam, and you'll pinpoint wrecks, bait balls, and bottom contours with laser-like precision. Anglers love how it cuts through noise from boat wakes or aerated water, while its temp sensor helps track thermal edges where fish congregate.
Built tough for everyday abuse, it mounts easily on most outboard or I/O transoms without drilling— just secure it in the optimal deadrise position for bubble-free operation. Pair it with modern multifunction displays, and you'll unlock CHIRP-like detail from conventional pulses, making it a smart upgrade for aging electronics.
Effortless Installation and Maintenance
Getting it up and running is straightforward. Position the transducer parallel to the waterline at rest, about 1/3 from the transom's back edge to avoid prop wash interference. Use marine sealant on stainless steel mounting screws for a watertight seal. After install, perform a bottom-tracking test at various speeds to fine-tune tilt angle—typically 0-5 degrees down for best results.
Maintenance is minimal: Rinse with fresh water after saltwater use, inspect the face for marine growth, and store it dry during off-seasons. Its urethane face is forgiving, but avoid high-pressure washes directly on the connector.
Versatile Compatibility and Pro Tips
Works seamlessly with a range of chartplotter and sounder brands supporting BlueChart or similar protocols, thanks to the XID tech that auto-configures settings. Kayak fishermen appreciate its compact profile, while offshore charters rely on its deep-water prowess.
"Switched to this from a cheaper single-freq model—night-and-day difference in target separation and bottom hardness reads. Worth every bit for serious fishing trips."— Experienced offshore angler
Frequently Asked Questions
What frequencies does this transducer support?
It operates at 50kHz for wide-area deep-water scanning and 200kHz for high-resolution shallow-water detail, with a built-in diplexer for easy dual use.
Is this transducer suitable for saltwater fishing?
Yes, its rugged plastic housing and urethane face are designed to handle corrosive saltwater environments, making it ideal for offshore and inshore pursuits.
How do I mount it on my boat?
It's a transom-mount model—attach to the hull's transom with included hardware, ensuring it's level with the waterline at rest and clear of strakes or prop turbulence.
Does it include a temperature sensor?
Absolutely, it features both analog and digital temp sensing for accurate surface water temperature readings, crucial for locating fish-holding zones.
What's the maximum depth capability?
Expect reliable performance beyond 3,000 feet in optimal conditions at 50kHz, though actual range depends on boat speed, water salinity, and display unit.
Is it compatible with CHIRP sounders?
This is a conventional dual-frequency transducer but pairs well with CHIRP-capable units via frequency selection. For full CHIRP, consider broadband models.
What cable connector does it use?
It comes with a 10-meter cable ending in a 9-pin black connector, standard for many marine electronics.
Power supply: unspecified, installation: beam, powerful but sensitive! TM260 brings the legendary performance of the B260 to your stern. This top-of-the-line broadband beam mount brings a clear image to any angler today. The large 200 kHz element and seven-element, 50 kHz array is very suitable for separating bait and wild fish, and detecting ground fish that are clinging to the bottom. The sturdy mounting bracket of TM260 is easy to install and has a streamlined shape, which can provide high-speed performance of up to 30 knots (35 MPH).
