I am looking for some vendors that make PtP optical wireless (laser) gear. I have a project where I have to link 2 buildings separated by a 5 lane road. Buildings are at least 10 stories high. Multiple reasons why RF (WiFi) or fiber under the street will not work, plus some layer 8 issues. I need 100 mbs, Ethernet is the protocol transported. PoE would be nice but not a show stopper. Anyone have experience with this kind of gear and can suggest a vendor ? Thanks, -- James H. Edwards Network Systems Administrator Judicial Information Division jedwards@nmcourts.gov
RF in general or you don't want to use wi-fi which is understandable? For our telcom back-haul needs which needs to meet carrier class grade we have found Ceregon, Redline, and Dragonwave to work flawlessly. Redline and Dragon are PoE, Ceregon use coax. Unfortunately we don't use laser because the weather would be a problem for us. Bret On 10/22/2010 03:15 PM, james edwards wrote:

Canon. Canobeam laser systems. Very nice, very fast. I've heard of installations going around a mile and stayed up in a snow storm. Cheers, Curtis On 10/22/2010 3:15 PM, james edwards wrote:

Hello,
Canon. Canobeam laser systems. Very nice, very fast. I've heard of installations going around a mile and stayed up in a snow storm.
We swapped out our Canobeams a while ago for units by Bridgewave (http://www.bridgewave.com/) Eric :)
