FSO makes Laser Communication Equipment

FSO-Instruments makes laser communication equipment for use in satellites and (mobile) ground stations.

Laser Satellite Communication is a better alternative to RF (radio frequency) communications in space. Laser communication is faster, more secure and allows for low latency communication networks. The technology has been proven in space and is now making the transition to larger scale applications that include:

• Fast internet supporting Wi-Fi coverage in airplanes and ships

• 5G backhaul networks

• Real time networking, also for high bandwidth applications

The opportunity for industrializing Laser Satellite Communication is now. Public and private applications requiring laser satellite communication are being developed and there is a demand for solutions that not only work but can also be scaled up in commercially attractive ways. This drives the need for industrialization and higher volume manufacturing of components and assemblies for laser satellite communication.
