SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--LightPointe, a leading designer and manufacturer of high-speed outdoor wireless point-to-point network bridging solutions, announced that its AireLite G wireless links are providing data and video transmission in extremely critical applications such as disaster infrastructure recovery and hospital networks, including live video transmission during surgeries.
“The AireLite G has become our best-selling Gigabit capacity link due to its excellent throughput, low latency, high reliability and affordable price,” said John Taylor, vice president of sales and marketing for LightPointe. “Although we also manufacture 60 and 70/80 GHz radio frequency backhaul solutions, we’ve seen tremendous demand for more secure and cost effective FSO links such as our AireLite G which cannot be intercepted and is ideal for sensitive data transmission, as in financial and medical networks. Our customers have told us they appreciate that LightPointe provides them with a choice of RF and free space optics solutions, depending on their needs and budget.”
“As one of Japan’s most experienced companies in wireless deployment, we’re pleased with the performance and reliability of LightPointe’s AireLite G links,” said Kiyoshi Tsujimura, of Kaytec Limited of Japan. “LightPointe’s free space optics solutions have been well-received by our customers, including hospitals using the AireLite G for live video transmission during such critical applications as heart surgeries.”
The AireLite G, which provides full duplex GigE Ethernet throughput at a link price below $10,000, is available through LightPointe’s authorized channel partners. Wireless distributors, resellers and integrators should contact LightPointe for special incentives on the company’s new FSO and radio frequency backhaul solutions, which are also used in settings such as schools, business campuses and government municipalities.
