The Raymarine RVX1000 is a black-box sonar module that adds RealVision 3D, high-CHIRP, DownVision, and SideVision to compatible Raymarine multifunction displays. Its dual transducer ports separate the RealVision 3D connection from the 1kW CHIRP connection, giving the installer more flexibility when building a high-performance fishing system. The display and transducers are not included in the supplied specifications.

The 1kW CHIRP channel is listed to 5000 feet, while the 3D function is listed to 300 feet, with actual results depending on transducer choice, hull installation, water conditions, and boat motion. RayNet Ethernet carries the sonar data to Axiom, Axiom Pro, Axiom XL, eS, and gS systems. This module is for a planned Raymarine network, not a standalone fishfinder that can be used without a compatible display.

Key Features

- RealVision 3D, high-CHIRP, DownVision, and SideVision – Provides multiple sonar views through one module.
- 1kW CHIRP output – Supports high-power conventional fishfinding with a compatible transducer.
- Dual transducer ports – Separates RealVision 3D from the 1kW CHIRP transducer connection.
- 5000-foot 1kW CHIRP and 300-foot 3D depth figures – Shows the listed capability by sonar mode.
- RayNet Ethernet – Connects the module to compatible Raymarine multifunction displays.

Who Is This For?

This Raymarine 3D CHIRP sonar module suits offshore fishing boats and Axiom installations needing several sonar views. It is not ideal for buyers without a compatible display or transducers, because the RVX1000 is a black-box module and does not provide its own screen.

Compatibility

Confirmed compatibility includes Raymarine Axiom, Axiom Pro, Axiom XL, eS, and gS series displays, dual transducer ports, and RayNet Ethernet. The supplied information does not identify specific transducer models, Garmin, Simrad, Lowrance, NMEA 2000, NMEA 0183, radar, or autopilot compatibility. No named incompatible system was provided.

Warranty & Support

The RVX1000 is the flexible Raymarine module when the installation needs both 3D imaging and a separate 1kW CHIRP path. Its trade-off is the need for two compatible transducer connections and a RayNet-linked display. Choose it for a custom Axiom sonar system where maximum flexibility matters more than a bundled installation.
