The Garmin GMR xHD2 6' Open Array is a high-definition antenna designed to be paired with xHD2 or Fantom series pedestals. Measuring 6 feet (approx. 1.8 meters) in length, this antenna provides a professional-grade 1.1-degree horizontal beamwidth, offering the sharpest possible target separation and long-range resolution. It is the ideal choice for offshore anglers looking for birds at a distance and commercial mariners navigating high-traffic waterways.

Maximum Resolution for Offshore Dominance
Choosing a 6-foot antenna array significantly enhances your radar's ability to "see" between targets. The narrow 1.1-degree beam focuses more energy on small targets at greater distances, making it much more effective at spotting birds or small vessels in heavy sea clutter. Whether you are tournament fishing or navigating through dense fog, the GMR xHD2 6' antenna delivers the precision you need to stay safe and productive.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can I use this antenna with a Fantom pedestal?
Yes. This antenna array is compatible with both xHD2 (magnetron) and Fantom (solid-state) Garmin radar pedestals.
2. Why should I choose 6ft over 4ft?
The 6ft array has a narrower beamwidth (1.1°) than the 4ft (1.8°). This allows the radar to separate two objects that are very close together, which might appear as one single blob on a smaller antenna.
