Garmin Xdcr,B175H,8-pin,CHIRP,1kW,Brnz Thru-hull, 0, HF
The Airmar B175H is the high-frequency (H) element from Airmar's B175 broadband CHIRP thru-hull transducer series -- the higher-frequency counterpart to the B175M mid-frequency element, sold here through Garmin's marine electronics catalogue for direct installation with Garmin CHIRP-capable sounders and chartplotter/sonar combo units. Like the rest of the B175 family it's a permanent bronze thru-hull sensor, with the housing protruding less than 1/4 inch outside the hull once flush-mounted through a below-waterline bore, so it adds no meaningful drag once installed.
Where the H element trades some of the M element's extra depth penetration for finer target separation and sharper bottom detail -- better suited to shallower-to-moderate-depth fishing where picking individual fish out from structure matters more than chasing maximum depth -- this specific unit is Airmar's 0-degree (flat, no-tilt) version, built for installation on a flat section of hull with no deadrise at the transducer location, keeping the beam pointed straight down. It shares the family's 1kW power rating, an 8-pin connector for direct wiring into a compatible Garmin sounder module or MFD sonar input, and CHIRP broadband transmission for depth sounding and fish/bottom imaging. Sold as the transducer and mounting hardware only, for a fixed thru-hull installation rather than a transom-mount alternative.
