Kongsberg CNODE Maxi Transponder

cNODE is a family of transponders for underwater acoustic positioning and data link and operates with both HiPAP®, HPR and cPAP® transceivers. The medium frequency (MF) cNODE family consists of the following types, each with a separate product specification sheet: • cNODE Maxi and cNODE Midi (Medium frequency, 4000 m) • cNODE Mini (Medium frequency, 4000 m) cNODE operates with either the HiPAP/HPR 400 channels and telemetry or with the new Cymbal acoustic protocol. The cNODE design is very modular and covers a large range of applications with its variety of different transducers, internal and external sensors, housing materials and other add-on functions. Both new configurations and software can easliy be downloaded from the Transponder Test and Configuration unit (TTC30) without opening the transponder. The floating collar and release design make the launch/recovery operation safe and easy. Spare parts for cNODE are based on the main modules.
