Icom designs and manufactures high-performance marine communication and navigation equipment for both commercial vessels and leisure yachts.

The product catalog covers a wide range of operational requirements, from short-range coastal communication to worldwide ship-to-shore connectivity. The company focuses on structural durability and intuitive operation, ensuring equipment remains functional in extreme sea conditions.

The product line includes fixed-mount and handheld Marine VHF radios, many of which feature built-in GPS, Digital Selective Calling, integrated AIS receivers, and active noise-cancelling technology.

For long-range, blue-water communication, the company provides Single Sideband radios engineered for reliable global transmissions. For commercial operations and regulated vessels, the company supplies fully compliant GMDSS equipment, including survival craft handhelds designed to withstand intense environmental exposure during search and rescue operations.

The navigation and situational awareness segment features dedicated Marine Radars with advanced target tracking and automated collision avoidance monitoring. These systems integrate with standalone AIS transponders to deliver real-time vessel data tracking and identification.

To compile and manage these data streams, the company offers Multi-Function Displays that combine chartplotting, radar tracking, and fish finder data into integrated marine bridge configurations.
