Overview
Built around our field-proven 6G hardware and Wideband 2 acoustic signal platforms, Modem 6 subsea units support secure subsea-to-surface wireless data transfer at speeds between 200 and 9,000 bps.
This makes them ideal for applications such as: near real-time data streaming, data harvesting from third party sensors or subsea command and control of equipment.
Modem 6 acoustic modems are aimed at simple data transfer applications which do not require the more complex functions such as integrated (USBL) positioning, on-board sensors or complex multi-node array telemetry. If you need any of these capabilities, or an OEM solution which you can integrate into your own instrument or vehicle, our application experts will be happy to discuss your requirements and identify the right solution for you.
We offer a variety of subsea-deployed acoustic Modem 6 units to suit any operational deployment scenario and data transfer mission. You can mount them on a variety of platforms ranging from seafloor installations to an AUV and transmit sensor or platform status data between instruments or to a surface buoy or vehicle.
