Ocean Signal RescueME EPIRB2 CAT2 - Marine Safety Beacon, SOS, GPS & RLS

Details

• What is an EPIRB? An EPIRB is an Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon that sends a life-threatening SOS to the Cospas-Sarsat satellite network, broadcasting your identity and position to speed up Search & Rescue response—no subscription required.
• Global alerting + local homing: Transmits a 406 MHz distress signal for satellite alerting and a 121.5 MHz homing signal to help rescue crews locate you precisely once they’re in the area—ideal for offshore passages, coastal cruising, and remote waters.
• RLS confirmation (key EPIRB2 upgrade): Return Link Service (RLS) provides visual confirmation that your distress message has been received by the satellite system—giving reassurance that your SOS is acknowledged, even when you have no mobile signal or VHF range.
• NFC smartphone connectivity (easy checks): Built-in NFC lets you tap with a compatible smartphone to view beacon status, review self-test results, and confirm readiness before departure—fast, simple pre-trip checks with no cables and no app hassle.
• Fast GNSS positioning + long-life reliability: 72-channel GNSS receiver (GPS + Galileo) delivers quick, accurate location data for rescue coordination, backed by a 10-year battery life and 48+ hours operating time for dependable performance when every minute matters.
