Furuno 165T/265LH-PM488-12P 1kW Pocket Mount Transducer for DFF3D

165T/265LH-PM488-12P

Advanced CHIRP Combo Transducer for Professional DFF3D Sonar Systems

The Furuno 165T/265LH-PM488-12P represents the pinnacle of marine transducer technology, combining 1kW power output with advanced CHIRP sonar capabilities in a robust pocket mount design. Engineered specifically for Furuno's DFF3D sonar system, this professional-grade transducer delivers exceptional fish finding performance and bottom discrimination for commercial and serious recreational applications.

Superior Sonar Performance with Multi-Frequency CHIRP Technology

Dual-Band CHIRP Coverage

Low frequency CHIRP (42-65kHz) provides deep water penetration with wide coverage, while high frequency CHIRP (130-210kHz) delivers exceptional target separation and detail resolution for precise fish identification.

Multi-Beam Configuration

Three distinct beam angles (120°, 25° x 16°, and 10° x 6°) offer versatile coverage options from wide-area scanning to pinpoint target analysis, maximizing fishing efficiency in all conditions.

Professional 1kW Power Output

High-power transmission ensures maximum depth penetration and target clarity, making it ideal for deep water commercial fishing and offshore sport fishing applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this transducer compatible only with DFF3D systems?

The 165T/265LH-PM488-12P features specialized elements and processing capabilities specifically designed for Furuno's DFF3D sonar technology. The 12-pin connector and dual pigtail cable configuration ensure proper signal transmission and power delivery to the DFF3D module.

Can this transducer be installed in any hull material?

This pocket mount transducer is designed for in-hull installation in fiberglass and composite hulls. The urethane housing provides excellent acoustic coupling through direct hull contact. Metal hulls may require special considerations and should be evaluated by a qualified marine electronics installer.

What is the effective depth range with 1kW power output?

The 1kW power output provides excellent depth penetration, typically effective to 3,000+ feet depending on bottom composition and water conditions. The dual CHIRP frequencies optimize performance across different depth ranges, with low CHIRP excelling in deep water applications.

How does the motion sensor improve sonar performance?

The integrated motion sensor continuously monitors vessel movement and automatically compensates for pitch, roll, and heave. This ensures accurate depth readings and consistent bottom tracking even in rough sea conditions, maintaining optimal sonar performance when fishing in challenging weather.

What installation support is available for this transducer?

Furuno provides comprehensive installation documentation including the specific "165T/265LH-PM488 Installation Manual" and "DFF3D Transducer Guide." Dimensional drawings and technical support are available to ensure proper installation and optimal performance.

Installation Requirements & Considerations

Pre-Installation Planning

  • Verify hull material compatibility and thickness specifications
  • Confirm DFF3D sonar module is installed and properly configured
  • Plan cable routing from transducer location to electronics compartment
  • Ensure adequate clearance for pocket mount installation

Installation Best Practices

  • Follow Furuno installation manual specifications precisely
  • Use marine-grade sealants and fasteners for all connections
