The Trout deckbox system consists of two units: Array Power Unit and Array Receiver Electronics Unit. The system includes independent array and deckbox electronics power supplies. Array power voltage and current are continuously indicated. Deckbox electronics can include depth indicators as shown here. Two gain settings matching popular acquisition system full-scale ranges are standard, as is MAI's unique driven array sensor calibration system.

The rear panels of the Trout deckboxes include fully fused power connections, the array connections, and the signal outputs. Standard outputs are easy hookup BNC jacks. Customer specified multi-pin connector outputs are available as an option.
