Abstract
The present invention relates to a system that provides underwater data transfer to an underwater communications network operable to carry a high bandwidth multiplexed data stream. The cabled network includes at least one data access point having an access point electromagnetic transceiver; and at least one remote client system comprising a client electromagnetic transceiver. The at least one data access point transfers data between said cabled network and said client electromagnetic transceiver via one of inductive magnetic and electromagnetic signals carried through the water.
