Reliable communication and positioning for deep-water and long-distance operations
MINI 15/27
The MINI 15/27 modem combines long-range performance with configuration versatility - it is our only long-range model available in the compact MINI form factor. Designed for reliable, long-range data exchange and rated for deep waters, it achieves up to 9.2 kbit/s over 4000 m range.
MINI 15/27
15/27 offers wide-angle coverage with its 120-degree beam pattern. It is optimal for long-range data transfers in slanted and vertical directions, such as from the seafloor to the surface.

Long range
Depth-rated 15/27 models offer a wide acoustic coverage for reliable long-range connections
[02]
Light and compact
MINI form factor - smaller and lighter build without compromising on performance. Well-suited for space-constrained setups and AUV/ROV integration
[03]
Communication and positioning in one
Pair with other 15/27 devices for USBL, LBL or hybrid positioning and simultaneous data transfers - no mode switching needed

Naming and compatibility notice
Before mid-2025, this model was offered as S2C M 15/27. Our product naming has been streamlined for consistency - the TINY 15/27 modems are acoustically compatible with all existing S2C 15/27 devices.
Acoustic Performance Factors
Please note, that listed bitrate and operating range values refer to performance under optimal acoustic conditions and may vary with the environment. These figures indicate the upper limits of modem performance rather than guaranteed real-world results. Acoustic performance - including achievable range and data rate - depends on both environmental factors and the installation setup. It can be influenced by multipath propagation, variations in the sound velocity profile, ambient noise levels, and interference from vessel systems or nearby machinery. Optimal conditions typically include a calm sea state, low background noise, a uniform sound velocity profile, line-of-sight geometry, minimal multipath, and proper transducer placement.
Specifications are subject to change without notice.
