Abstract :
Underwater mateable electro-optical connectors operated by a submarine or a ROV are key components for present and future seabed detectors. After a test, ANTARES selected a type of connector from the Ocean Design (ODI) Company. The use of this device was not fully successful and it is considered today as the most critical part of the detector. Possible improvements in the use of this connector are suggested.
