ROVNav 6+ has compatibility with Sonardyne Wideband®2 and 3 telemetry commands, and support of high power Wideband 2 ranging protocols proven for their accuracy and robustness, means the ROVNav 6+ offers improved range and acoustic performance in challenging conditions such as on noisy vehicles or in multipath environments.

The support for Sonardyne Wideband 3 enables ROVNav 6+ to operate with Sonardyne’s latest Compatt technology, Compatt 6+. In turn, it means ROVNav 6+ fully supports the latest Fusion 2 LBL and SPRINT INS software.

ROVNav 6+ is also a fully compatible USBL responder or transponder compatible with Sonardyne Wideband 2 USBL systems and HPR400. The internal Li-ion rechargeable battery pack also enables emergency transponder mode, so if the umbilical and therefore power is cut to the ROV it can still be located by USBL.
