LightPointe Communications, one of the develops and
manufactures high capacity point-to-point broadband solutions for telecom carriers, businesses and government
agencies. Leveraging over $80 million in R&D and product development and more than a decade of industryacclaimed
customer support, LightPointe has deployed state-of-the-art systems worldwide. With its industry-unique
laser and radio frequency experience, one of LightPointe’s key competitive advantages is its ability to provide
customers with the ‘best of both worlds’ in wireless data transmission — the use of highly secure, ultra-fast laser
transmission and robust wireless/RF solutions. In addition, the company’s products do not require frequency
licensing, and there are no recurring costs as with leased-line data transmission solutions. LightPointe’s products
provide fiber-like throughput at a fraction of the cost of fiber, and can be quickly installed in applications ranging from
LAN backbone to carrier LTE backhaul/picocells to uninterceptable private networks for enterprise, defense and
homeland security. LightPointe is the leader in broadband laser transmission and hybrid laser/radio solutions

The 2012 AireBeam Series:
Next generation backhaul
AireBeam Series: The G80-MX Medium Range and G80-LX Long Range Bridges (70/80 GHz Point-to-Point Backhaul Solutions)
70/80 GHz Brochure and Spec Sheet
70/80 GHz Spec Sheet
Whether you are connecting two buildings or a complete city, LightPointe’s new 70/80 GHz backhaul solutions are ideal for carrier grade Gigabit Ethernet transmission. The AireBeam Series was designed from the ground up to support today’s bandwidth intensive networks for businesses and mobile networks facing exponential demand due to the growth of smart phones, tablets and video streaming.
These radios combine quality German hardware engineering with U.S. manufacturing efficiency and software excellence and are made in LightPointe's new San Diego, CA facility. Both the Medium Range and Long Range systems are shipping now after completing one of the most intensive Research and Development programs and sequence of refinement and testing procedures in our history. The result is a 4G/LTE ready Gigabit Ethernet bridge with the industry's lowest power consumption, low latency, innovative features, low weight and ultra high gain antennas.
