Free Space Optics (Optical Wireless)
Fast, reliable, point-to-point wireless links and best of all... no more leased line charges!
Campus networks, private company networks and redundancy links all benefit from the quick and easy deployment of optical wireless, plus these systems can deliver bandwidth anywhere from 2Mbps up to 1.25Gbps, over distances of up to 5km.
With leased line costs showing no sign of letting up and quarterly bills eating away at your IT budget, AIT Partnership Group offers you a reliable building-to-building wireless solution with a one off fee - it's literally a fibre optic cable in the air!
Free Space Optics transmits data using modulated laser light in a way similar to fibre optic communications. This allows ultra-high speed wireless transmission at full wire-line data rates. In addition, the narrow and invisible laser beam makes it the most secure means of wireless communication.
Applications & Benefits:
- High-speed building-to-building connectivity
- Ideal for LAN extension in campus environments
- Offers massive savings in comparison to leased lines
- Cost-effective way of providing backup to existing mission critical links
- Distances up to 6km, speeds up to 10Gbps
- Highly secure plus Interference and license free
- Works with a variety of protocols such as Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, FDDI, ATM, and ESCON
- Eye and skin safe at the aperture and meet all the safety standards including the IEC60825-1 Class 1M standard
Dual Path Technology
If your links are mission critical, you may wish to consider using a radio back up to an optical link to ensure high availability.
Optical links deliver very high bandwidth connections but can occasionally be affected by very adverse weather conditions such as dense fog. Dual Path Technology offers an optical link with RF back-up and a switch to manage the connection. In foggy conditions, if the optical link deteriorates, the switch changes the link to radio until conditions improve, then back to optical when conditions return to normal, thus preventing downtime.
