Description
 
With an internal GPS and an external GPS optical interface, the ACR Electronics Terrafix 406 I/O PLB gives the user unparalled versatility.  

Accidents happen every day in the outdoors, whether you fall out of a tree stand, break a leg during a hike, or roll over on an ATV. In the outdoors, an every day accident instantly can become a life threatening situation, and rescues may take days or weeks if you're not prepared. The ACR Terrafix 406 I/O can save your life or the life of a loved one. Why wait days being stranded in the outdoors hoping someone will find you? Put the power in the palm of your hand with the ACR Terrafix 406 I/O Personal Locator Beacon. Now you can turn that life threatening situation into a successful rescue story. It's as easy as pushing a button: with an internal GPS receiver the ACR Terrafix will acquire your GPS position and transmit it, along with your personalized indentifier code, through the SARSAT satellites, instantly alerting Search and Rescue forces that you need help, immediately! Be Responsible, Be Prepared, Be Safe.

The bottom line is the ACR Terrafix 406 I/O PLB takes the search out of search and rescue!

This Personal Locator Beacon should only be used in situations of grave and imminent danger, and only as a last resort when all means of self-rescue have been exhausted. Made in USA.
