When a compact design and deep operating capability are important operational factors, a Marker 6 transponder provides low-cost acoustic positioning at depths of up to 7000 m. It enables targets such as underwater structures, vehicles or instrumentation packages to be marked, located or tracked using any of our Ranger 2 USBL systems.

The transponder incorporates Near Field Communications (NFC) allowing for fast setup. Its acoustic address can be selected from over 200 unique identities meaning that multiple Marker 6s can be deployed close to each other. Our Wideband signal encoding reduces interference to or from any adjacent acoustic positioning systems.

Before deployment, the acoustic address can be quickly and easily programmed into each transponder using a suitable NFC enabled handset (including an NFC enabled Android™ handset with the Sonardyne NFC App) or a dedicated HF Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) reader. The NFC link provides the ability to enter Marker 6 into a storage mode when not in use, thereby significantly increasing the overall battery endurance.
