The Mini-T fibre optic multiplexer (MUX) system offers digital fibre optic transmission of multiple video, Ethernet and serial data channels over a single fibre optic link. The size of the Mini-T subsea hull is approximately 5 x 14 inches.

The Mini-T can provide a telemetry solution for remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) including smaller observation, explorer and light working class models.

The small subsea unit is complemented by a 19” 1U Eu-ro-rack style enclosure at the surface or at the controlling end of the telemetry system.

The Mini-T utilises state-of-the-art CWDM optical technology and offers the ability to upgrade or modify the optical configuration or electrical specification of a system.
The Mini-T MUX system can be built specifically to suit a range of integration platforms including stand alone telemetry. Options are available for an upgrade of accessory optical configurations to add further data channels to existing optical telemetry systems.
