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.
