the best value mid-range FSO product on the market. 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. 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 fiber in the air.
The
Laserbit
GigaPRONTO
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. 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 IDIU 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 network interface protects the customer's investments in
Laserbit
systems. Moreover,
GigaPRONTO
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.
