Aire X-Stream
For applications requiring extreme low latency and high speed, such as Military Communicatons and High Frequency Stock Trading
Aire X-Stream Brochure and Specifications
- Faster than all cable and fiber optics technologies
- Faster than all radio frequency wireless technologies
If your data transmission needs require the absolute fastest technology available, LightPointe’s advanced Aire X-Stream four-laser wireless bridge is the best choice for your network. While other companies tout equipment latency figures in microseconds, LightPointe’s engineers measure Aire X-Stream’s latency in nanoseconds—less than 20 nanoseconds to be exact. That, combined with transmission speed over 200 times faster than the typical broadband connection, make Aire X-Stream the ultimate in time-sensitive applications such as defense/military communications and High Frequency Stock Trading.When compared to LightPointe’s nearest competitor’s top of the line Radio Frequency data bridge, the Aire X-Stream’s less than 20 nanosecond latency beats their best case 64,000 nanosecond/64 microseconds latency by, well, let’s just say...a safe margin.
Aire X-Stream is raw, unadulterated Gigabit capacity power channeled through four 4th generation laser beams, without the unnecessary overhead found in other transmission systems.Aire X-Stream provides faster-than-fiber and faster-than-radio performance for applications requiring the ultimate in transmission speed. Equipment latency is so low—and the speed-of-light performance advantages of Free Space Optics transmission are so great—that an Aire X-Stream signal traveling at 300,000 km/s through the air will outrun a fiber optics cable signal traveling at 200,000 km/s in less than 20 meters. And in another example, when compared to traditional Layer 2 radio frequency bridges with ~50 microseconds equipment latency on the transmission side alone, light can travel 10 miles before the RF signal even leaves the Layer 2 radio! The design of the Aire X-Stream is so advanced, the units on each side of a link, combined, add less than 1% delay to the speed-of-light transmission—at one mile!And unlike fiber optic cable runs, which are typically 150 to 200% of the line of site distance in order to follow or go around natural and man-made obstacles, this bridge simply transmits straight from point A to B, thus leading to additional speed advantages over fiber optics technology. And these high velocity laser bridges can be "daisy chained" back-to-back for long distances and to overcome line-of-sight issues.
