The Humminbird APEX 16 MEGA SI+ CHARTPLOTTER is a full-HD marine multifunction display built around a 15.6-inch touchscreen, internal GPS, chartplotting, Dual Spectrum CHIRP, MEGA Down Imaging+ and MEGA Side Imaging+. It is designed to combine navigation, sonar, mapping and marine networking in one helm display.
The APEX 16 combines a 1920 x 1080 display with Humminbird sonar technologies and connectivity for compatible Minn Kota, Cannon and other marine electronics. The product information also identifies built-in NMEA 2000 networking, dual MicroSD card slots, HDMI input/output, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
The APEX 16 uses a 15.6-inch Full HD color TFT display with a 1920 x 1080 pixel matrix. Its Cross Touch interface provides touchscreen control while the APEX platform also supports keypad operation.
The high-resolution display is designed to show chart information and sonar imagery with enough detail to work with multiple information views at the helm. Humminbird also identifies the APEX display as suitable for viewing sonar and chart information in full HD.
Sonar is one of the main functions of the APEX 16. The unit supports MEGA Side Imaging+ and MEGA Down Imaging+, alongside Dual Spectrum CHIRP traditional sonar.
Humminbird specifies MEGA Imaging+ coverage up to 250 feet under and to either side of the boat. The published specifications identify MEGA Down Imaging+ at 1100–1200 kHz and MEGA Side Imaging+ at 1050–1175 kHz.
Additional imaging options include 455 kHz and 800 kHz Down Imaging+ and Side Imaging+. Published imaging depth and side-to-side ranges vary by frequency, including up to 400 feet for 455 kHz Down Imaging and up to 800 feet for 455 kHz Side Imaging.
The APEX 16 includes Dual Spectrum CHIRP sonar for traditional 2D sonar imaging and target separation. Humminbird lists Full, Narrow and Wide CHIRP modes, with supported standard frequency ranges of 150–220 kHz, 180–240 kHz and 140–200 kHz respectively on the current product specification.
The standard transducer is specified for sonar depths up to 1,200 feet. Optional Airmar CHIRP configurations can extend the available depth capability, depending on the transducer and installation.
The standard APEX 16 configuration identified by Humminbird includes an XM 14 HW MSI T transom-mount transducer. The unit also provides dual sonar ports for compatible Humminbird sonar equipment and a dedicated channel for compatible 2D CHIRP transducers.
Integrated transducer identification is designed to simplify installation of compatible Airmar transducers. Before purchasing an additional transducer, confirm the desired frequency, mounting method and sonar function against the existing system.
The APEX 16 includes internal GPS and GPS chartplotting. Its Humminbird Basemap provides chart information for navigation and identifying underwater terrain and points of interest.
The system is compatible with Humminbird LakeMaster and CoastMaster mapping products, as well as compatible Navionics chart products. The current Humminbird product information also identifies included LakeMaster and CoastMaster VX mapping on the standard APEX 16 configuration.
GPS trackplotting is included, with support for up to 10,000 waypoints, 50 routes and 50 tracks with up to 20,000 points according to the published specifications.
The APEX platform supports AutoChart Live, allowing compatible units to create real-time maps of fishing areas. Humminbird identifies mapping of depth contours, bottom hardness and vegetation as part of the AutoChart Live feature set.
The system also supports compatible LakeMaster, CoastMaster and Navionics chart products, giving boat owners options for expanding the mapping information available on the display.
The APEX 16 is compatible with the Humminbird One-Boat Network. This allows compatible Humminbird equipment to communicate with supported Minn Kota trolling motors and Cannon downriggers.
The published compatibility information also identifies support for Minn Kota i-Pilot Link, Talon and Raptor shallow-water anchors, Minn Kota US2 sonar and other compatible equipment. Exact capabilities depend on the connected products and required accessories.
Two Ethernet ports allow the APEX 16 to be integrated into a larger compatible marine electronics network. Humminbird identifies Ethernet connectivity for multiple control heads and compatible Ethernet accessories.
This can be useful when building a connected helm with additional Humminbird displays, sonar equipment or compatible marine electronics. Network planning should account for cable routing, power requirements and the specific equipment being connected.
The APEX 16 includes independent HDMI In and HDMI Out connections. HDMI input can be used with compatible video sources, while HDMI output can send the display to a compatible external screen.
This provides additional flexibility for installations that require an accessory camera, video source or secondary viewing position.
Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth provide wireless connectivity to compatible devices and services. Humminbird identifies Bluetooth communication with compatible Talon and Raptor shallow-water anchors and Cannon Optimum downriggers.
The APEX platform also supports wireless software-update functions through compatible Humminbird applications and Wi-Fi connectivity. Software-update requirements can change as Humminbird releases new firmware, so the installed unit should be kept current using the manufacturer’s supported update process.
The APEX 16 has NMEA 2000 networking built in. This allows the display to participate in a compatible NMEA 2000 marine electronics network for sharing supported boat, navigation and environmental information.
Humminbird lists compatibility with equipment including AIS, autopilot systems and heading-sensor GPS configurations. Confirm the required cables, network power and device compatibility before installation.
The APEX 16 is identified as compatible with supported marine radar and autopilot systems. This allows the chartplotter to serve as part of a wider navigation and situational-awareness system.
Compatibility depends on the specific radar, autopilot and networking equipment. Check the manufacturer’s compatibility requirements before combining components from different system generations.
The APEX interface supports customized digital readouts and custom view selections. These features allow operators to configure the information displayed at the helm around their preferred navigation and fishing workflow.
The unit also includes speed and water-temperature information, a temperature alarm and temperature graph functions when the required data is available from the connected system.
