MF/HF radio equipment
– performance features
The new JSS-2150 Class A MF/HF radio equipment
features an intuitive user interface and advanced
modular design that allows for a exible installation
approach in conned spaces.
Unique features
The MF/HF has a 6-channel Digital Selective Calling (DSC)
as standard with a built-in DSC watch-keeping receiver. You
can generate and receive digital selective calls for quick and
ecient establishment of distress, urgency, safety and routine
communication with other ships and coast stations.
In urgent situations, the JSS-2150 sends a distress alert once you
press the distress button. The integrated DSC watch-keeping
receiver monitors distress alarms through continuous scanning
of distress frequencies.
The MF/HF integrates an advanced digital audio amplier with a
built-in speaker, which increases the amount of power, making your
message loud and clear.
The JSS-2150 uses a 3.8-inch high visibility LCD display, which you
can adjust at your own convenience. The display has 10 dim settings
and you can set the contrast up to 11 dierent levels, integrated
screensaver and assign a commonly used menu to the user key for
direct access. These are just a few of the possibilities.

JSS-2150 MF/HF – crucial for ensuring the ease of effective communication
The JSS-2150 includes a prominent distress button,
with features to prevent accidental activation.
When in distress, you can send a DSC message
instantly, transmitting your MMSI, position, time
of position and nature of distress, enabling an
immediate response for search and rescue eorts.

MF/HF radio equipment
– developed for maximum ease of use
JRC has been providing sales and support of products since 1915. Today, JRC oers comprehensive assistance
through its organisation, in partnership with a worldwide StarNetwork™ of over 270 fully trained and qualied
partners and agents, assisting you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year.
JRC StarNetwork™
The new controller design allows you to carry out all operations simply by using the same unied keyboard
layout as found in JRC’s VHF radiotelephone. The keyboard is solid and responsive, which allows for precise
operation. The keys are also backlit, making it easy to operate in low-light settings on the bridge.
The compact design of the JSS-2150 incorporates an intuitive interface, providing enhanced
ergonomics and user friendliness. The logic of the push buttons and JOG dial operation and
excellent on-screen menus will greatly shorten most users’learning period.

Self-diagnosis
Black box configured
Getting a second operation panel onboard is easy. Connect the controller to the
transceiver and position the controller at a secondary location on the ship. The
second MF/HF station is fully operable and you can transfer saved channel data
to optimise your operation.
Besides connecting a printer and GPS, you can connect the MF/HF to the Remote
Maintenance System (RMS1), a system that transmits a variety of information via satellite to
shore, to remotely perform maintenance and management checks – signicantly reducing
down time and service miscarriage by failure analysis.
With JRC’s MF/HF radio equipment you can perform self-diagnosis checks on the
controller and transceiver, allowing for easy maintenance and more reliability. The
results are directly shown on the screen, you can save as a log (up to 10 possible) or
print the results (with optional printer).
The JSS-2150 is black box congured and allows for a exible installation approach in
conned space. Panel, desktop or overhead mounting is possible with this signicantly in
size reduced MF/HF.
