Thai ISP Deploys Free-space Optics in Bangkok

Internet Thailand Public Company Limited (INET) has deployed LightPointe's free-space optics to expedite high-speed MetroLAN Internet services to Bangkok-area businesses. LightPointe's FlightSpectrum provides 100 Mbps building-to-building connections for INET, enabling the ISP to aggregate voice and data traffic from about two dozen buildings throughout downtown Bangkok to the company's 1 Gbps network backbone. For tenants in MetroLAN buildings, INET installs a CPE device that provides access to the Internet at 10 Mbps increments.



LightPointe's FlightSpectrum features the company's multi-beam, multi-path technology for additional resiliency and network redundancy. http://www.lightpointe.com
