McMurdo G8 SmartFind EPIRB (Manual Release Unit)

SmartFind G8 EPIRB is a Category 2 EPIRB meaning that once manually removed from it's bracket, the device will alert authorities that rescue is required.  The G8 EPIRB gives greater location accuracy by receiving GNSS coordinates from multiple satellite constellations. When the SmartFind G8 is activated it transmits a coded message on the 406 MHz distress frequency which is monitored by the Cospas-Sarsat satellite system. The alert is then relayed via an earth station to the nearest Rescue Coordination Centre (RCC). With an EPIRB you can summon help wherever you are on the planet, subscription free, no matter how remote! SmartFind G8 comes with a manual release bracket and features a self-test feature to give you peace of mind before setting off that your EPIRB is working. The 10 year battery life provides a long term solution and excellent value for money.
