IP-M60
HYBRID IP TRANSCEIVER (LTE + VHF MARINE)World’s First*

LTE and VHF Marine Hybrid Transceiver
Offshore and Onshore Communication* According to Icom research as of February 2024.

LTE and VHF Marine
Hybrid Transceiver

Supports Communication at Sea and on Land
The IP-M60 is the world’s first hybrid IP transceiver. Combining two modes in one,VHF marine and LTE communications. VHF marine transceiver, which is commonlyused worldwide as a means of maritime safety, and a land-based LTE transceiverthat can be used to make calls over any distance within a cellular (LTE) coveragearea*. The IP-M60 can be used offshore, in ports, rivers, and canals where maritimeand business communications are required. It can be used in situations such as
rescue boats that need to coordinate with search and rescue agencies, as well as
in the operation of yacht racing events.
* According to Icom research as of February 2024.

Four Operating Modes
Mode 1

Cellular (LTE) Mode
In Cellular mode, communication is through the carrier’s LTE (or 3G). Calls
can be made anywhere within the carrier’s coverage area. In addition,
Simultaneous TalkListen™ provides full-duplex communication in Cellular mode
allowing users to talk and listen at the same time like a telephone conversation.

Mode 2Marine Mode
This mode works as a VHF marine radio that has the same functions andperformance as conventional VHF marine radios, such as Icom IC-M25 orIC-M25EURO. VHF Marine is used to ensure the safety of marine traffic
between vessels or vessel-to-coast stations.

HYBRID IP TRANSCEIVER(LTE + VHF MARINE)

IP-M60Mode 3Cellular (LTE) + Marine Mode

Cellular and Marine modes can be used simultaneously (simultaneous reception ispossible and audio is MIXED). PTT buttons for Main and Sub-mode make it possible toselect the communication mode assigned to each with one touch. The communication
mode can be selected quickly without having to switch modes. Simultaneoustransmission on both channels is possible by pressing the PTT buttons for theMain and Sub-mode at the same time.

Main PTT button
Sub PTT button

Four Sub-modes — Automatically Select Transmission Mode
Cellular + Marine Mode offers four sub-modes: “Cellular Main”, “Marine Main”, “Adaptive PTT with Cellular Main”, and“Adaptive PTT with Marine Main”. Below are examples of “Cellular Main“ and “Adaptive PTT with Cellular Main“
modes. The same settings can be swapped between Marine and LTE modes.

Cellular Main Mode

Adaptive PTT with Cellular Main ModeIn the Cellular Main mode, the IP-M60 typically stands
by in Cellular mode and initiates calls to cellulargroups on pushing the Main PTT button. However, if acall is received on a marine channel, the radio
temporary switches to the Marine mode to respond on
the marine channel.

In this mode, the radio remains in the Cellular mode bydefault and initiates calls to cellular groups when theMain PTT button is pressed. As the operator moves topreprogrammed marine area (GPS point), the radio
automatically shifts to the Marine mode and transmits on
a marine channel.

Mode 4

Relay Mode — Transfers Received Audio to Another Mode
The Relay Mode transfers received
marine audio to the IP radio group,
vice versa. When the IP-M60 isused in the Relay Mode, no received
voice is heard from the speaker.
* The Relay function may be prohibited insome countries.

Common Features for the Cellular (LTE) + Marine ModeBluetooth® Technology Enables Wireless Operation

The built-in Bluetooth unit provides
a wireless connection between theIP-M60 and an optional Bluetooth®
headset. It also has a VOX functionthat enables automatic voice
transmission in response to yourvoice, allowing hands-free operation.

1500 mW Speaker Output, Provide Clear Loud Audio
Icom’s custom high-power capacity
speaker delivers a loud 1500 mW
audio output with advanced
acoustic sound clarity for noisy
environments.

Optional Bluetooth Headset, VS-3

MIL-STD-810 and IP67 Specifications

The IP-M60 is tested to U.S. Military standard environmental
tests and dust-tight and waterproof rating of IP67*. It can beused with peace of mind on decks
exposed to rain or splashingwater, or in dusty conditions suchas during ship repairs.
* 1 metre (3 feet) under water for 30 minutes.

AquaQuake™ Draining Functions
Icom’s unique AquaQuake™
function emits a buzzing sound,shedding water from the speakergrill. The IP-M60 provides clear
sound even if it gets wet from rainor waves.

Other Features• Noise Canceling function reduces background noise fromtransmitting voice• The Automatic Firmware Update and Provisioning functionworks through an LTE connection

Cellular (LTE) Mode Functions
Emergency Call Functions*

Simply by pushing the Emergency button,
an emergency call can be made with
an audible warning to a pre-defined
destination. In addition to pressing theEmergency button, the Emergency call
can be triggered by the Man Down, Lone
Worker, and Motion/Stationary functions.
* Emergency call functions work in the Cellular mode.

Emergency button

Status Function Posts the Current Status

Current Status information such as “Break”,“Working” and “Meeting” can be posted andreferenced from other radios. In addition,predefined short message (up to 32 characters)
Status example
can be sent to the talkgroup.

Vibration Alert Function
Notifies You of an Incoming Call

The Vibration Alert function notifies the user that a call or text
message is received with a strong vibration. This function can beconfigured for individual calls, group calls, all calls, or only when
receiving text data, depending on how it is used.

Last Four Minutes Recording*

The IP-M60 has a recording and playback function, so that if you
miss something, you can listen to it again immediately.
*Maximum recording: 4 minutes or 10 recordings.

Other Features• Priority call with high priority authority• Dual SIM capability to install two SIM cards at the same time
• One Touch PTT function keeps transmitting while you are talking• Address book for storing talkgroup IDs

Marine Mode Functions
Dedicated Channel 16 Button
Channel 16 is the international
Distress, Emergency and Calling
channel. Push the Channel 16 button
to monitor the channel.

Dualwatch and Tri-Watch Functions

For example, it is convenient for use in a yacht race, when race
announcements are made on a designated channel, while you
are monitoring
Channel 16 andusing otherchannel.

Other Features• Favorite channel scan, Priority channel scan and Auto Scan
Start functions• Weather channel receiver with a Weather Alert function** Depending on the transceiver version.
