Designed for difficult situations

Need to communicate in harsh environments?

Water Linked's Modem M16 enhances ROV and AUV operations with reliability and robustness. By prioritizing reliability over data rate, its design ensures consistent communication even in difficult conditions, such as varying salinity, temperature fluctuations, and moderate turbidity. 


Thanks to advanced signal processing, the M16 is built to handle environments with background noise and multipath propagation. By focusing on reliability, the Modem M16 excels in scenarios where stable communication is critical, making it an ideal choice for demanding underwater applications.

Need to communicate over long periods of time? 
With a boot-up time of less than 10 milliseconds, the M16 modem can be set to sleep when not required and quickly boot-up to transmit or receive data. Where it’s not possible to set the modem into the sleep mode each modem draws less than 0.3 watts in listen mode and less than 2 watt seconds when transmitting data.


Need to communicate with other modems in close proximity? 
With 12 channels to choose from, operating around a 58.5 kHz centre frequency, multiple modems can be operated at the same time in the same area without interference. 


Need a modem on a vehicle without adding size or weight?

Maintaining a small physical size and being lightweight was critical when designing the M16 modem for optional OEM integration, allowing the M16 modem to be tightly integrated with little impact on the design of the overall system.

Amazing product.
This product is great to have around in your car. This makes it easier for solving the problem of a flat tire. I mean! In my case! I rather use this method first instead of having to remove the tire and having to go through the spare tire dilema. For a temporary solution,this kit is perfect. And in some cases! It can serve as a permanent solution. This kit is great to have in your trunk. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Gets the job done.
Got 2 flats at the same time in freezing cold weather. Jack failed, but this product didn't.

Would buy again
No issues with this product. The oversized T handles make it a bit easier to complete the plugs. Definitely easier for those who have trouble gripping smaller items to work with or for those with larger hands. Valve stem remover was nice quality and nice to have additional valve stems. Would buy again. Wish it had a better case but I can't complain for the price.
