  • Modular and expandable distributed architecture
  • Local Data Communications Bus enabling distributed control architectures
  • Multiple serial Interface capability supporting intelligent sensors
  • Optically isolated RS485 serial interfaces for third party or local subsea sensors
  • Auxiliary remotely isolated power supply for support of third party equipment
  • Application software downloadable from the surface
  • Rigorous Environmental Stress Screening (ESS) program to enhance reliability
  • Reduced lead times
  • Designed for deep water environments
  • Installable within all KOP subsea control modules
