- Built-in dual channel 1 kW CHIRP echosounder for superior target separation and clarity: reveal fish, structure and bottom details like never before.
- Support for Active Imaging™ & Active Imaging™ HD: high-definition DownScan and SideScan sonar capabilities to detect structure, fish and composition with exceptional fidelity.
- Charting covered: Includes C-MAP® Discover X chart card of North America out of the box and supports C-MAP Reveal X plus third-party charts such as CMOR and StrikeLines (check availability with provider).
- Integration-ready: Seamless connectivity with Simrad® HALO® radars, RECON™ trolling motor, S3100H/S5100 sonar modules, Wi-Fi 5 (IEEE 802.11ax), micro-SD/SDHC card support, HDMI video in, IP camera inputs, and much more—future-proof your helm.

Why This Unit Stands Out:
Whether you’re trolling offshore or cruising coastal waters, the NSS 4 delivers a refined helm experience and advanced sonar capabilities that elevate both safety and fishing performance.
The 12″ display offers expansive visibility, while the multi-control interface ensures ease of use in all conditions. With built-in sonar and compatibility with high-end imaging modules, you get a full fish-finding and chartplotting suite in one unit. Its integration potential means you’re not just buying a display—you’re investing in a scalable marine electronics ecosystem.
Who Should Use It:
- Sport-fishing enthusiasts who demand best-in-class sonar and imaging to locate fish, structure and underwater terrain.
- Cruisers and serious boaters who want a premium navigation display with full integration of radar, autopilot, charting and vessel systems.
- Boat owners upgrading their helm to modern networked electronics, with the flexibility to add future modules and capabilities.
Installation & Notes:
- Transducer(s) for sonar features may be required separately depending on your setup.
- Ensure chart compatibility: designed for C-MAP X-Gen charts (DISCOVER X, REVEAL X) and selected third-party support. Navionics is not supported.
- Dual SD card slots on front of unit allow quick access to chart cards and memory expansion.
- Bracket mount included; optionally supports rear-mount installation. Be sure to check depth & dimension requirements: display only 338.9 mm × 208.4 mm × 84.8 mm (13.34″ × 8.20″ × 3.34″); with bracket 367.8 mm × 232.8 mm × 84.8 mm (14.48″ × 9.17″ × 3.34″).
Elevate your marine electronics and onboard experience with the Simrad NSS 4 12″. The premium screen, advanced sonar, deep integration and smart design combine to give you one of the most capable chartplotter-fishfinders available.
Get pro-level performance and reliability for your next fishing trip or cruising adventure.
