GigaBeam to Supply "Wireless fiber" Units to OnFiber

GigaBeam announced an agreement to supply its WiFiber wireless connectivity products to OnFiber Communications. A field trial deployment is anticipated to occur in the current quarter.


GigaBeam expects to provide ultra high speed wireless point-to-point communications links that operate in the 71-76 GHz and 81-86 GHz radio spectrum bands. This portion of the radio frequency spectrum recently was authorized by the FCC for wireless point-to-point commercial use.


GigaBeam expects that its technology, coupled with these large blocks of recently authorized contiguous spectrum, will enable multi gigabit-per-second wireless communications utilizing Gigabit Ethernet protocols. The anticipated speed of GigaBeam's technology is 1.25 Gbps.


GigaBeam is also working on products capable of 10 Gbps.
