The integrated antenna provides wireless connectivity to the remote control and coil. XP routed the antenna inside the shaft to protect the connection from physical damage during dives, where external cables can snag on kelp, rocks, and submerged structures. The integrated design eliminates one failure point compared to shafts with external antenna cables, which can develop breaks at the connection points after repeated flexing. The antenna is built into the shaft structure and maintains the Deus II's cable-free architecture. This internal routing protects the antenna connection from the harsh underwater environment while preserving the wireless communication between the detector components.
