Compatibility of Quantum, Digital, and HD Digital Radomes w/legacy radar displays

Raymarine's Digital and HD Digital Radomes, HD Open Array Pedestals, and SuperHD Open Array Pedestals are exclusively compatible with the following products:
- a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFDs (note the letter case)
- G-Series GPM400 (retired)
- E-Series Widescreen MFDs (retired)
- C-Series Widescreen MFDs (retired)
- E-Series Classic MFDs

Digital and HD Radomes must be interfaced to the MFD or network switch using a Digital Radar Cable or Digital Radar Extension Cable in conjunction with a Digital Radar Cable.

Raymarine's Quantum Radomes are exclusively compatible with Raymarine's a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFDs (note the letter case) which have been updated with v16.47 a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFD software. While a/c/e/gS-Series MFD software releases through v6.27 supported inclusion of E-Series Widescreen MFDs or G-Series GPM400s within the same Ethernet network as an a/c/e/gS-Series MFD, subsequent a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFD software updates prohibit E-Series Widescreen MFDs or G-Series GPMs within an Ethernet network which additionally includes an a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFD. Accordingly, should one desire to interface a Quantum radome to a system which currently features an E-Series Widescreen MFDs or G-Series GPM400 within the same Ethernet network as an a/c/e/gS-Series MFD, then
- the E-Series Widescreen MFDs or G-Series GPM400 would need to be removed from the Ethernet network which includes the a/c/e/gS-Series MFD, and
- the a/c/e/gS-Series MFD would need to be updated with v17.46 or later a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFD software.
