Abstract
A hydrophone mounting in a cavity of the hydrophone cable and a method of mounting the hydrophone. The cavity which is provided in the hydrophone cable may be constructed so that it is free-flooding, that is, the construction allows the liquid in which the hydrophone cable is submerged to completely surround the hydrophone. The cavity serves to insulate the hydrophone from movements and perturbations to the cable so that the hydrophone response is not distorted by these sources of noise.
