How does a laser system work?
The only difference between a Redline laser
system and a standard fiber optic cable system is that
the signal is amplified and transmitted through free space
instead of fiber optic cable.
How secure is the system?
The security of free space laser is superior to that of
Microwave systems (RF) due
to the absence of radiation.
Must the two
transceivers be installed in the same plane?
The system can be installed in any relative plane. For
example, one transceiver can be in the vertical plane
on a mast, whilst the other one is installed horizontally
on a
building rooftop.
How easy is the system to
install?
The bulk of the installation time is taken up by installing
the brackets and cables. The actual alignment of the units
normally takes between 10 and 30 minutes. An installation
team normally consists of two people.
How
does the weather effect the system?
All wireless communication systems are affected by fog
and rain. The impact on these on FSO will be dependent
on the range which the signal is required to traverse,
as well as the climatic conditions that prevail from time
to time. Redline supplies a set of network planning tools
that will enable the user to determine the deployment
distance that will deliver the desired network performance.
