Manufacturer Part Number (MPN)
T70549
Marine Electronics Specialist Insight: The Quantum 2 (MPN T70549) represents the pinnacle of compact, solid-state radar technology. By utilizing Doppler target processing, it instantly identifies and color-codes moving radar contacts—red for approaching threats and green for retreating targets. This Black Edition provides a stealthy, custom look for your vessel and includes the 10M cable kit, ideal for most center console and mid-sized cruiser installations.
Safety in Living Color: Quantum 2 Doppler Intelligence
The Raymarine Quantum 2 Black Edition (MPN: T70549) is engineered to eliminate the learning curve of traditional radar. With its advanced Doppler technology, the system automatically detects moving targets and highlights them in contrasting colors. This allows the captain to differentiate between a buoy and an incoming vessel at a glance, significantly increasing safety in crowded harbors or during night passages.
Utilizing CHIRP Pulse Compression, the Quantum 2 delivers exceptional target separation and detects objects as close as 18 feet, making it just as effective for tight-quarter navigation as it is for long-range scouting up to 24 nautical miles. This 10M cable version offers a streamlined installation for standard T-tops and hardtops, while its low-power solid-state design ensures "Instant-On" performance without the wait of a traditional magnetron.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is the 10M cable long enough for my boat?
The 10M (approx. 33ft) cable kit included with the T70549 is standard for most center consoles and cruisers up to 35 feet. If you have a larger vessel or a high tower, the 15M T70550 kit may be required.
2. Can I use this with an Axiom display?
Yes. The Quantum 2 is fully optimized for Axiom, Axiom Pro, Axiom 2 Pro, and Axiom XL displays running LightHouse 3 or LightHouse 4 operating systems.
