XMi-11K underwater iridium beacon

XMi-11K beacon introduction:

XMi-11K is an independently powered, self-sustaining underwater iridium beacon that can dive to a depth of 11000m. This beacon can protect your valuable underwater instruments and facilitate recycling. Through Iridium, you can track your instrument from anywhere in the world. The XMi-11K beacon features a sturdy titanium alloy casing and a solid-state surface sensor.

Main features of XMi-11K:

1. The miniaturization design of the entire beacon

2. Titanium alloy shell, maximum pressure resistance 11000m

3. Users can choose to change the transmission frequency of the beacon

4. Solid state surface sensor

5. Low power consumption, suitable for long-term deployment

6. Users can choose to configure the beacon through Bluetooth

7. Point-to-point iridium communication

8. Real time GPS communication can be carried out after the beacon comes out of the water

9. The beacon uses AA type (alkaline or lithium battery) batteries, which are convenient for users to replace

10. Optional split structure: XMi-11K Remote Head model
