Imagine navigating through dense fog or crowded marinas with crystal-clear visibility of every obstacle, vessel, and even distant weather patterns. The Simrad HALO 2004 radar with its 4-foot open array antenna transforms your boating experience by delivering unmatched short- and long-range detection. This solid-state powerhouse packs 50 watts of power—rivaling traditional 12kW magnetron systems—while using advanced pulse compression for razor-sharp target resolution from just 20 feet out to an impressive 72 nautical miles.
Crafted for serious boaters, anglers, and commercial operators, this radar boosts situational awareness without the complexity. Its intuitive preset modes let you switch effortlessly between harbor maneuvering, offshore cruising, weather tracking, and bird spotting, ensuring you're always prepared for whatever the water throws your way.
Safety first: In low visibility or high traffic, the HALO 2004's Doppler and tracking tech acts like an extra crew member, flagging risks before they become problems. For fishing enthusiasts, its bird mode reveals surface activity from miles away, guiding you straight to productive grounds without guesswork.
Unlike older magnetron radars, this solid-state design emits low-power pulses safe for harbor use and requires no warm-up, making it ideal for day sailors and weekend warriors. The 4-foot open array spins at 16-48 RPM, balancing speed and detail, while IPX6 waterproofing shrugs off harsh marine environments.
Upgrade seamlessly with its compact footprint, matching legacy HALO models, and plug-and-play compatibility with popular Simrad multifunction displays. Enjoy peace of mind from enhanced resolution that reveals nuances lower-power units miss, like tightly grouped vessels or subtle weather shifts.
Engineered for endurance, this radar thrives in extreme conditions: from -25°C to +55°C temperatures, relentless UV exposure, and 80-knot winds. Its brushless motor with electromagnetic braking ensures precise parking, and the GaAs front-end low-noise amplifier delivers a 5dB noise figure for pristine signals.

Compass-safe distances keep your heading accurate, and Ethernet connectivity integrates smoothly with your network for overlay on charts.
Mount the pedestal securely on a stable surface with clear 360° rotation. Connect the included 20m power and Ethernet cable to the RI-50 interface box, then link to your display via standard networking. No complex tuning needed—auto-calibration handles the rest. Position the array high for optimal horizon scan, and you're scanning the seas in minutes.
The open array design offers superior resolution and range compared to domes, with beam sharpening for better target separation at all distances.
Yes, the Bird mode excels at detecting feeding flocks, helping locate baitfish and structure from afar—ideal for offshore angling.
It uses Doppler to color-code targets by relative motion, instantly highlighting closing vessels to prevent collisions.
Absolutely—low-power solid-state pulses are harbor-safe, and Harbor mode optimizes for close-range navigation without interference.
Powers up in 16-25 seconds from off, or instantly from standby, so you're ready fast.
Yes, Ethernet integration supports seamless overlay on NSS, NSO, and compatible series for unified navigation.
IPX6 rated for pedestal and antenna withstands heavy spray; built for -25°C to +55°C extremes.
Benefit from safer navigation and unmatched ease of use with the new HALO ® 2000 Open Array radar. Advanced Pulse Compression technology allows you to detect birds, hazards and storms with superior precision across both short and long distances. While the range of Preset Modes and enhanced power provide constant peace of mind. The HALO ® 2000 and 3000 array radars offer a premium experience on the water. An impressive 50 Watt of power: equivalent to a 12 Kilowatt magnetron radar: delivers an unrivalled combination of short- and long-range coverage that enables you to see targets from six meters (20 Feet) out to 72 (and 96) nautical miles with exceptional clarity. Pulse Compression technology powers confident navigation through marinas, and superior storm and hazard detection across a greater distance. The HALO ® array series not only increase situational awareness and collision avoidance, but also offer higher-resolution target detection you won’t find in lower-powered radars.

More Power Matters
The HALO® 2000 radar offers a premium experience on the water. An impressive 50 W of power – equivalent to a 12 kW magnetron radar – delivers an unrivaled combination of short- and long-range coverage that enables you to see targets from six meters (20 feet) out to 72 nautical miles with exceptional clarity. Pulse Compression technology powers confident navigation through marinas, and superior storm and hazard detection across a greater distance. The HALO® array series not only increase situational awareness and collision avoidance but also offer higher-resolution target detection you won’t find in lower-powered radars.
Safer Navigation
The HALO 2000 series boast an array of new features that make navigation safer and offer peace of mind. ZoneTrack™ brings the best of professional boating technology to recreational users, allowing them to track up to 50 vessels within a defined area, automatically detecting their course and speed. HALO’s Dangerous Target Alerts highlight range, graphical bearing, and heading of other vessels relative to yours. Meanwhile, VelocityTrack™ uses Doppler technology to show targets color-coded so you can identify potential threats at a glance. Because, when it comes to safety, situational awareness is everything.
Building on the HALO Legacy
The next generation of pulse compression radars, HALO 2000 and 3000 build on the features that have made HALO an established choice for boaters across the globe. The solid-state technology gets you up and running quickly, and HALO’s low-power pulsed transmissions make it safe to run in harbors and marinas. Dual Range mode allows you to keep an eye on distant weather cells while monitoring channel markers and high-speed watercraft up close. Advanced digital signal processing gives you a clearer view of targets, helping eliminate sea clutter, while Beam Sharpening provides enhanced separation between small or distant targets. Finally, HALO 2000 and 3000 have the same footprint as their predecessors, making it easy to upgrade your current system. It’s also compatible with a range of Simrad® chart plotters, including NSS™, NSX™, NSO™, and GO™.
Easier Operation
Designed with an intuitive interface HALO arrays make operation easier with smart features like Harbour, Offshore, Bird, and Weather modes. These Preset Modes require no manual tuning – just select your chosen mode and go. This simple approach also extends to fishing, with HALO’s powerful bird-finding capability which enables boaters to find flocks of birds and – more importantly – schools of fish at a distance.
