    Mini-beacons are tracking devices that offer flexibility with directional or omni-directional beam patterns and high power variants. They are compatible with most industry standard tracking systems and can be configured as transponders, responders, or pingers. Various models are available with different beam widths and battery lives, and depth ratings up to 2000 meters. The beacons have rechargeable batteries, rotary switches for controls, and can operate on external power. They transmit and receive acoustic signals on specific frequencies to communicate with tracking systems.
