Interphase Technologies introduces Escort™, a new high quality forward vertical scanning sonar, providing superior underwater collision avoidance, at a price lower than ever before.

Working like an underwater radar, with forward ranges to 1,200 ft and down looking ranges up to 600 feet, the new ESCORT has the power and features to help avoid semi-sunken containers, whales and icebergs in offshore waters, or to help avoid rocks, coral reefs and other obstructions in more shallow coastal regions.

Designed for easy installation in today's modern vessels, the Interphase Escort™ comes complete with a remote keypad and display connections for VGA, composite video and a special sunlight viewable
Interphase 7" display with integral keypad.

Owners can use existing onboard displays, add a new VGA or composite video display or select the optional Interphase Sunlight Viewable 7" display with integral keypad. The composite video output connects to many popular multifunction displays from manufacturers such as Garmin, Raymarine, Furuno, Simrad and others. Owners can also utilize the VGA output to connect to various flat panel monitors from Nauticomp, VEI, Ambient Nav - even inexpensive computer monitors.

The new Escort™ comes complete with a thru-hull or transom mount transducer using Interphase's pioneering and phased array technology. The small transducer has no moving parts and installation is easy. The Escort™ also includes a sonar module, remote keypad with 10' of cable and 10' VGA and video connection cables.

This powerful and affordable sonar also has a full set of useful features including Auto Range, Auto Gain, Forward Range Expansion, Down and Forward Alarms, NMEA Depth Output, NMEA GPS Input, Keel Offset and choice of Sunlight, Day or Night Color Palettes.
