S1000RP - Remotely Powered Slim Acoustic Modem

The Popoto Modem S1000RO is a compact, remotely powered underwater acoustic modem that brings reliability, performance, and flexibility to subsea communication. Its rugged machined aluminum housing, depth-rated to 1000 m, ensures dependable operation in even the most challenging environments.

Supporting multiple modulation schemes with data rates from 80 bps up to 10,240 bps, the S1000RP provides versatile communication options across a range of conditions, with typical ranges of up to 4 km (depending on modulation scheme and environmental conditions). A high-power transmitter outputs up to 175–180 dB re 1 µPa @ 1 m, while advanced two-way acoustic ranging delivers <0.3 m accuracy, enabling both reliable data transfer and precise positioning.

Integration is effortless with support for Python, MATLAB®, C++, and JSON APIs, along with options for Ethernet, RS-232, or RS-422 interfacing. The onboard 1.4GHz Arm® Cortex®-A53 processor running Linux allows custom applications and logging, all stored on 32GB of onboard storage.

The S1000RP delivers the power, accuracy, and portability demanded by today’s ocean engineers, researchers, and IoT innovators. It’s the ideal choice for systems where compactness is critical.
