Advanced Marine Communication for the Modern Helm
The ICOM M510 Plus EVO AIS VHF with NMEA 2000 (US) represents the latest evolution in fixed-mount marine VHF radios. Designed for recreational boaters, offshore anglers, sailing yachts and commercial operators alike, it combines powerful communication, integrated navigation features and seamless networking into one sleek, award-winning package.
Delivering 25 watts of transmit power, an integrated AIS receiver, built-in GPS and native NMEA 2000 connectivity, the M510 Plus EVO provides everything required for safe, efficient communication on today's connected vessels. Its slim, modern design fits neatly into contemporary helm stations while the bright colour TFT display remains easy to read from virtually any viewing angle.
Built-in AIS Receiver for Greater Situational Awareness
The integrated AIS receiver allows you to monitor nearby AIS-equipped vessels directly from the radio's display, significantly improving awareness in busy shipping lanes, marinas and reduced visibility conditions.
Select any AIS target on-screen to initiate an individual DSC call directly, making vessel-to-vessel communication quicker and more intuitive. AIS information can also be shared with compatible onboard electronics through the built-in NMEA 2000 network, creating a fully integrated navigation system.
Native NMEA 2000 Integration
Unlike earlier generations that required additional interface modules, the M510 Plus EVO features built-in NMEA 2000 networking as standard. This enables simple plug-and-play integration with compatible chartplotters, multifunction displays (MFDs), GPS receivers and other marine electronics.
The radio can exchange GPS position, AIS data, DSC information and radio channel status across the network, helping create a streamlined and highly capable onboard communication system.
Class D DSC with Integrated GPS
Safety remains at the heart of the M510 Plus EVO. Its Class D Digital Selective Calling (DSC) system continuously monitors Channel 70, ensuring distress calls are never missed while you're communicating on another channel.
The integrated GNSS receiver automatically provides precise vessel positioning for DSC distress alerts, allowing emergency services and nearby vessels to receive your location immediately should assistance be required.
Control Your Radio from Your Smartphone
One of the standout features of the M510 Plus EVO is its built-in Wi-Fi connectivity. Using the free RS-M500 mobile app, compatible iOS and Android devices can function as wireless microphones, remote controllers and onboard intercom stations.
Up to three smart devices can be paired, allowing crew members to communicate throughout the vessel without returning to the helm. Whether operating from the flybridge, cockpit or below deck, radio control remains close at hand.
Exceptional Audio in Any Conditions
Marine environments can be noisy, but the M510 Plus EVO is built to overcome them. Active Noise Cancelling technology significantly reduces engine and wind noise during both transmission and reception, ensuring clearer conversations in demanding conditions.
When paired with an optional speaker horn, the radio also supports a 25W two-way hailer, 20W receive hailer and electronic foghorn functions, providing additional safety and communication capabilities for larger vessels.
Built to Perform at Sea
Designed specifically for marine use, the M510 Plus EVO carries an IP68 waterproof rating, offering outstanding protection against water ingress and harsh offshore environments. ICOM's AquaQuake™ speaker draining technology quickly clears water from the speaker after heavy spray or rain, restoring clear audio with the touch of a button.
Its elegant low-profile housing, wide-angle colour display, intuitive controls and flexible mounting options make it equally at home on luxury cruisers, fishing boats and commercial workboats alike.
