SKYFIBER Launches SkyLINK, The Next Generation Optical Wireless Broadband

June 9, 2010 - PRLog -- Dallas, TX - SKYFIBER™ announces the official launch of SkyLINK™ ushering in the era of Optical Wireless Broadband (OWB) technology by combining Free Space Optics technology with custom laser optics design and patented mesh networking deployment strategies that allow its product to deliver a whole new level of capacity, flexibility, and reliability. SKYFIBER’s (http://www.skyfiber.com) SkyLINK™ product allows service providers to resolve their mobility backhaul bottlenecks by delivering over 1Gbps of Broadband connectivity at a fraction of the cost of Microwave, Millimeter wave, or In-Ground Fiber.

The technology is also ideal for reaching underserved areas, connecting business, medical, and educational campuses, channeling highly secure data transactions, and a host of other key applications.  

“SKYFIBER’s product comes at a time when the demand for broadband connectivity has never been greater and continues to grow exponentially year over year. With our unmatched lowest cost-per-mbps advantage, SkyLINK is uniquely suited to address key issues faced by the telecom industry today. Our product offerings will positively impact an operator’s need to address the impending backhaul crisis, and enable municipalities to bolster economic growth by delivering broadband to their communities.”  said David Achim, CEO and President of SKYFIBER (http://www.skyfiber.com/2.0/aboutskyfiber_leadership_davi...).

Turbo-charging networks with high-capacity broadband:  A key feature of the SkyLINK (http://www.skyfiber.com/2.0/windows/marketingscreens/skyl...) product is its ability to deliver a high amount of data capacity at very low cost. At as little as a tenth the cost of optical fiber, there is also no need to dig up the ground to lay fiber, a process which is costly, time consuming, and environmentally unfriendly. Other key features include:

On demand bandwidth: SKYFIBER’s industry-first on demand offering allows businesses and carriers to add bandwidth as needed, dialing up the size of their data pipe as their needs grow and change.

Rapid deployment, modular design: SKYFIBER can deploy a 1 Gig link in as little as a day. The SkyLINK product is highly secure, compact, easily to set up, and our exclusive patented mesh networking deployment allows us to cover large areas by interconnecting links.

Reliable and secure: Optical Wireless Broadband provides a completely secure transmission, with an infrared beam of light that is impervious to interception, unlike Radio transmissions. SKYFIBER is also able to deliver carrier grade reliability through custom laser-optics design and patented deployment methodologies.

Green technology: By delivering broadband with low power consumption, zero to minimal footprint, no generation of RF pollution, and no environmentally destructive trenching, SkyLINK is one of the greenest ways to open up a clogged network.

Availability: SKYFIBER’s SkyLINK product is now available at www.skyfiber.com or by calling 1-877-SKYFIBER (759-3423).
