SI-TEX CVS-128 8.4" Commercial Digital Color Fishfinder
Description
The SI-TEX CVS-128 is a commercial-grade digital color fishfinder built for serious anglers and professional mariners who demand reliable, high-performance sonar on the water. Featuring an 8.4" daylight-viewable color TFT LCD display with up to 64 color levels, this unit delivers exceptional image clarity in all lighting conditions. Dual-frequency (50/200kHz) operation combined with a digital signal processor (DSP) ensures precise fish target separation in both shallow and deep water environments.
With a high-speed pulse rate of 5,000 transmissions per minute and up to 1,000 watts of power, the CVS-128 is engineered to detect even the smallest targets at depths up to 3,600 feet. Exclusive Sona-Tone audio identification, GPS-assisted Fishing Hot Spot recall, and an IPX5 waterproof rating round out a feature set designed for demanding commercial and recreational use alike.

Manuals & Guides
FAQ
What is the difference between 50kHz and 200kHz frequency on the CVS-128?
The 50kHz frequency produces a wider sonar cone and is best suited for deep water fishing, as the lower frequency penetrates greater depths more effectively. The 200kHz frequency has a narrower cone and provides higher resolution, making it ideal for shallow water and detailed bottom imaging. The CVS-128 supports both simultaneously, giving you the flexibility to switch based on your fishing conditions.
What is the Sona-Tone feature and how does it work?
Sona-Tone is SI-TEX's exclusive audio identification system that uses different tones to indicate what is detected below your boat. It produces distinct sounds to differentiate between individual fish and larger schools of fish, allowing you to monitor fish activity without constantly watching the screen - useful when you're focused on other tasks at the helm.
Does the CVS-128 include a GPS unit or transducer?
The CVS-128 accepts GPS sensor input to enable the Fishing Hot Spot function, but a GPS sensor may be sold separately. Similarly, the transducer configuration may vary - please review the product specifications sheet or contact us at service@omahasportsandgames.com to confirm what is included and which transducer is compatible with your vessel.
Can I connect the CVS-128 to an external monitor?
Yes. The CVS-128 features an RGB output that allows you to connect an optional external VGA monitor. This is especially useful for larger vessel bridges where the crew needs to view sonar data from a distance or on a larger screen.
Is the CVS-128 suitable for saltwater use?
Yes, the CVS-128 is rated IPX5 for water resistance and is a commercial-grade unit designed for demanding marine environments including saltwater. Its anti-reflective display and robust construction make it well-suited for offshore and commercial fishing applications.
