installation fast and easy. They can be ordered with IP based SNMP compatible
device management that allows remote control and monitoring of the equipment.
Because they use infrared light as transmission medium,
Laserbit
systems do not
require frequency licenses and the transmission is not affected by electro-magnetic
interference. The concentrated laser beam is extremely hard to tap, even to discover
since it can not be detected by spectrum analyzers or similar instruments. The
transparent and wire speed data transfer together with virtually zero latency assures
the easy integration of the system in all environments. Basically, a
Laserbit
link
can be considered as a virtual fibre in the air.
The
GigaPico
system comprises of two Laser Heads, two Outdoor Interconnection
Units (ODIU) and two sets of interconnection cables — one at each end. The Laser
Heads are installed outdoors, where a clear optical path exists between the two
sites. Next to the head the Outdoor Interconnection Unit provides fast and easy
interconnection between the laser head and the cable coming from the network
equipment. Moreover the ODIU houses the Power Supply Unit (PSU) of the system
and the network interface. The PSU provides the low voltage power required to
operate the laser head while the data port offers direct connectivity for standard
network equipments. A variety of standard fibre interfaces are available for easy
network integration. The system contains built-in signal monitoring unit, which
features a visual signal strength indicator and LINK status information accessible on
the rear of the head assembly. The optional IP Based Management Hardware is
placed in an Indoor Interconnection Unit (IDIU). The bar graph of the IDU displays
the actual signal strength level while the LED indicators show the presence of Minor
or Major alarm condition. With the help of the relay contacts an external alarm
monitoring equipment may be connected to the system to further process the alarm
signals. In addition to the above
Laserbit
BitView
TM software allows the
monitoring of the link’s operation through a proprietary graphical interface (GUI) via
Ethernet or RS-232 ports or a third party SNMP manager via TCP/IP connection. .
Industry standard fibre optic interfaces and clear upgrade path for higher bandwidth
protect the customer's investments in
Laserbit
systems. Moreover,
GigaPico
systems offer high level of network flexibility due to their extremely fast and easy
installation method, which makes them ideal to follow network topology changes.
3.2 Laserbit GigaPINTO series
The
GigaPINTO
series products are
the second generation of giga speed
free space laser based systems from
Laserbit
designed to deliver easy-to-
use and cost-effective solution for high
speed wireless connections. The
applied technology is based on the
highly successful
GigaPICO
series
products featuring extra lightweight compact mechanical design with factory-set
optical system that requires no adjustment or configuration on site. In addition
GigaPINTO
systems cover larger distances and can be ordered with IP based
