SONAR AND COMMUNICATION
SYSTEMS
FOR
OVER FIFTY YEARS - MEETING
THE U.S. NAVY'S REQUIREMENT
FOR NAVAL UNDERWATER
ACOUSTIC TRANSDUCERS, ARRAYS
AND SYSTEMS FOR
COMMUNICATION AND NAVIGATION
SONARS.
ITT's unique personnel teams
and world class facility have
the complete design,
engineering, manufacturing,
test and field service
capability to successfully
address underwater acoustic
program needs.
Transducers and arrays
developed and produced at
ITT Acoustic Sensors include
a wide range of submarine
and surface ship
applications for passive and
active anti-submarine
warfare (ASW), ASW training,
underwater communications,
and depth sounding.
Platforms equipped with ITT
systems include all U.S.
Navy Class submarines,
international diesel and
electric submarines and
numerous world Navies
surface combatants.
ITT Corporation is a leading
developer and supplier of
ruggedized precision Doppler
Sonar Velocity Log (DSVL)
systems for ships,
submarines and underwater
vehicles
ITT was one of the first
developers of operationally
fielded Doppler Sonar
Velocity Logs (DSVL) for the
U.S. Navy. With its unique,
patented phased array
technology, ITT supports the
Navy's transition from
electromagnetic velocity log
technology, to the more
precise DSVL technology. Key
Navy programs at ITT include
the Advanced Swimmer
Delivery System (ASDS), the
AN/WQN-2A DSVL for U.S.
submarines and surface
ships, and a number of
special projects.
ITT Doppler Logs benefit
from our technological edge
and long experience as a
leader in meeting customer
specifications for sonar
tranducers and arrays, and
for navigatioin and
communication sonars that
meet military requirements.

The U.S. and allied Navies
worldwide rely on ITT to
provide precise and
dependable depth sounding
sonars for safe navigation.
The Depth Sounder
transducer's return signal
describes the depth and
contour of the sea bottom as
a graphic display and as
digital information. ITT has
supplied all of the U.S.
Navy's standard AN/UQN-4A
depth sounders and has
recently begun rapid
development, production and
installation of the
AN/BQN-17A depth sounder, a
rugged
commercial-of-the-shelf
depth sounder with stealth
features for the U.S.
Submarine Force.

Arrays of transducers
greatly enhance the signal
generating and data
gathering capabilities of a
vessel.
ITT has led the industry in
supporting Navy programs
requiring innovative
designs, improved
reliability and towed array
and hull-mounted array
sensors.
ITT's program involvement
includes: Wide Aperture
Array, SQR-19 and TB-29A
towed arrays, MFTA
(Multi-Function Towed
Array), depth sounders
and underwater telephone
arrays.

The Model 5400 Underwater
Telephone (UWT) is a
compact, high-power acoustic
underwater telephone for
single sideband voice and
modulated CW operation.
ITT provides the Model 5400
series of underwater
telephone systems for U.S.
Navy tactical and auxiliary
communications needs. The
Model 5400 UWT is used in
the Virginia Class
Submarine, the Advanced
Swimmer Delivery System (ASDS),
deep submergence and
acoustic range support
programs, and the Spanish
Navy F-100 Frigate. ITT also
supplies a full range of LF
and HF transducers for
underwater communications as
well as supporting recent
developments for underwater
digital communications.
Fully synthesized, the Model
5400 UWT covers a frequency
range of 5 to 45 kHz,
selectable in 1 kHz
increments plus the AN/WQC-2 frequencies. It
is fully compatible with AN/UQC,
AN/BQC, and ATM-504 series.
