Free Space Optics Technology:
An overview:

Free Space Optics (FSO) is a line-of-sight technology using light to provide optical bandwidth connections in which voice, video and data information can be sent and received simultaneously on invisible beams of light.  

FSO provides a point-to-point, Infra red, wireless laser transmission designed for the interconnection of two points which have a direct line of sight. The systems operate by taking a standard data or telecommunications signal, converting it into a digital format and transmitting it through free space. The carrier used for the transmission of this signal is Infra red light and is generated by either high power LED or low power laser diode(s).

Free Space Optical (FSO) Transmission Systems are playing an increasingly important role in the delivery of broadband communications in the Enterprise (Business) and wireless back haul for GSM Mobile operators. Providing high bandwidth and reliable communications over short distances - FSO is extremely quick and simple to deploy.   And being free form government licences and not requiring planning permission then network planners are utilising FSO as an integral tool for network connectivity giving significant benefits in terms of time and cost savings over other wireless communications routes.

PAV Data has the worlds largest installed based of FSO technology.
