Head offshore with confidence. With three levels of integrated signal
technology — GPS positioning, a powerful 406 MHz signal and 121.5 MHz homing
capability — the GlobalFix™ PRO quickly and accurately relays your position to
a worldwide network of Search and Rescue satellites, reducing search time and
increasing your chances of survival. It’s reliable signaling technology that
has saved more than 26,800 lives since 1982.
The GlobalFix™ PRO broadcasts a unique registered distress signal that not
only tells rescuers where you are, but who you are. The internal GPS will
automatically turn on and acquire your position upon activation and then
utilizes a powerful 406 MHz signal to relay your distress call to orbiting
satellites. As local Search and Rescue is deployed, a separate homing signal
and integrated LED strobe light guide rescuers to your exact location.
The GlobalFix™ PRO is small and rugged and comes with over 53 years of life
saving technology built into every one. Performing a full functional self
test of the GlobalFix™ PRO internal circuitry, battery voltage & power, and
406 MHz transmission gives you the peace of mind knowing your EPIRB will work
the moment you need it to the most. ACR Exclusive: Built-in GPS acquisition
test mode allows you to test the internal GPS receiver to ensure its working
properly.
Tap in to the same field-tested rescue technology used by the U.S. Military,
Coast Guard, NATO, Special Forces and Arctic explorers.
