Raymarine Quantum 2 Q24D Doppler 18" Radar – Black Radome, 10m Cable (T70549)

Raymarine Quantum 2 Q24D is a cutting-edge 18-inch radome radar that brings advanced Doppler safety technology to smaller and mid-sized vessels. Housed in a sleek black enclosure, it adds style while delivering top-tier performance. This solid-state CHIRP radar instantly highlights moving contacts and minimizes clutter, giving captains confidence in crowded harbors and poor visibility conditions. The Quantum 2 powers up instantly and connects via Wi-Fi or the included 10m cable, making it an easy upgrade for modern navigation systems.

• Recommended Use: Perfect for sailboats, RIBs, and powerboats up to ~12 m (40 ft) in length, where light weight, low power consumption, and enhanced close-range detection are paramount. The black radome variant is ideal for boaters wanting a premium, non-reflective look to complement their vessel’s design.
• Doppler Collision Avoidance: Quantum 2’s Doppler processing automatically color-codes moving radar targets to indicate threat level at a glance. Inbound targets are marked in red and outbound in green, helping you instantly discern potential collision risks and take action. Even stationary obstacles are emphasized within 200 m ahead of your boat for added awareness in tight quarters.
• High Resolution & Range Performance: CHIRP pulse compression technology ensures excellent target separation and clarity from 6 m minimum range up to 24 nm maximum. You get detailed imagery of shorelines, other vessels, and weather cells. Quantum 2’s TrueTrails™ target history can display motion trails, making it easier to track moving objects over time.
• Easy Installation & Integration: Weighing roughly half of traditional magnetron radars, the Quantum 2 (5.6 kg) is easier to mount on radar arches and sailboat masts without affecting stability. It supports wireless connection to Raymarine Axiom displays, reducing cable runs, or a direct plug-in via the included 10 m power/data cable (RayNet) for reliable high-speed data. The unit is solid-state, so there’s no lengthy warm-up – it’s ready to transmit as soon as you power on.
• Advanced Target Tracking: For peace of mind on the water, Quantum 2 supports MARPA target tracking of up to 25 selected targets using the same technology trusted by the US Coast Guard. Set up guard zones and get alerts when new targets enter your safety perimeter. The system’s fast 60 RPM scanning (in high-speed mode) ensures even fast-moving contacts are updated quickly on screen, crucial for high-traffic areas or racing situations.
• Fully Featured Radar: Quantum 2 offers dual-zoom mode (view a close-range and a long-range radar picture side by side on compatible displays) and supports overlay of radar on charts when paired with a Raymarine MFD with GPS/compass data. Its low power consumption and 12/24 V DC compatibility mean it’s equally at home on battery-dependent sailing yachts as on powerboats. In all conditions – day or night, fog or rain – Quantum 2 provides an extra layer of safety with its superior short-range detail and intuitive Doppler-assisted display.
