IC-M510 VHF Marine Transceiver
Fixed Mount VHF with Wireless Smart Device Operation
Icom’s new Class D DSC fixed mount VHF marine transceiver, the M510 is a tech-laden powerhouse available with or without AIS receive capability. The M510 is nearly half the depth of the M506, allowing installation in more confined spaces. The large color display has a simple user interface allowing casual and serious boaters alike with plenty of options to communicate. Additionally, command and control using iOS® and Android™ smart devices with class leading features such as wireless calling.

Large Color Display
The M510 includes a full color 3.5" TFT LCD screen with a near 180-degree viewing angles. The standard marine user interface is enhanced with animated functions and night mode for optimal viewing in the dark.
Integrated Automatic Identification System
Use the M510 AIS version to access real-time vessel traffic information to stay up to date on travel information. Directly call an AIS target when using an individual DSC call. Reduce on the amount of marine hardware with an AIS and VHF two in one.
Command and Control
The RS-M500 app allows you to connect three iOS® or Android™ smart devices to function as a wireless command speaker/microphone. Use the push-to-talk features, scroll/scan channels, as well as use the M510’s intercom function from the comfort of the captain’s seat. Additionally, one COMMANDMIC™ can connect while 3 other smart devices are linked.
CT-M500 Wireless Interface w/NMEA 2000®
Connect to NMEA 2000® with the optional CT-M500 wireless interface box. If the NMEA connection is on a different part of the boat, the CT-M500 can wirelessly connect with the M510, providing flexibility on placement. Additionally, with the optional SP-37 horn speaker, the CT-M500 can access the two-way hailer/PA functions.
