Cabled Observatory Systems - OceanWorks International

OceanWorks has developed a range of hardware and interfaces for use in subsea cabled observatory systems that allow scientists to select from a shopping list of features and configure the hardware to match the scientific experiment objectives. Cabled observatory systems allow scientists to observe and measure deep ocean activity in real time on a 24/7/365 basis. Data is transmitted over fiber optic cable to the internet where it can be processed and analyzed by the scientists.

Cabled Observatory System hardware options include:

NODE Assembly - power, control, monitoring and distribution centre
ROV Wet Mate Connectors - science package plug in and exchange of multiple ports with optical, Ethernet and copper conductors
SIIM - Science Instrument Interface Modules -these junction boxes all multiple science instruments to plug into each node port
MUXA - Science Instrument Multiplex Adapters - expand connectivity and data transfer capability
Data Loggers - Modular instrument recording and processing
Vertical Profiling System - sea floor based system allows continuous sampling of the water column
General Instrument Integration and Testing - OceanWorks has completed detailed engineering and design for a number of custom tools used for data collection. These include bottom samplers, fish collectors and other systems deployed from the surface or mounted on ROV and manned submersibles
