Skull Vibrational Unit

An implantable hearing prosthesis for a recipient patient, the prosthesis comprising:

• a receiving coil for transcutaneous receiving of an externally generated communication data signal;
• a signal processor in communication with the receiving coil for converting the communication data signal into an electrical stimulation signal;
• a bone conduction transducer in communication with the signal processor for converting the electrical stimulation signal into a mechanical vibration signal;
• and
• two single mounting points opposite each other on an outer perimeter of the bone conduction transducer and mechanically connecting the bone conduction transducer to the skull bone of the patient so as to couple the mechanical vibration signal by bone conduction to the cochlea.
