The easiest way to visualise how the systems work is to imagine two points interconnected by fibre optic cable and then remove the fibre. The basic principles for the transmission of a signal along a fibre are the same as for transmission through free space. Broadband Optical Wireless Access Systems can be used for any application, computer networking, telecommunications, broadcast, security and where the interconnection of two points is required and there is an unobstructed line of sight up to a maximum of 6,000 Mtrs. The technology used within Broadband Optical Wireless Access Systems operates in the same manner as fibre optic cable and therefore benefits from the potential of the associated bandwidth. Broadband Optical Wireless Access Systems have no software configuration and are totally transparent to networks therefore they can be installed and operational within a matter of hours.
All systems offer a true plug and play connection.
The technology used within Broadband Optical Wireless Access Systems has been developed over a period of nine years, PAV Data Systems Ltd was formed as a commercial operation to promote the products designed and manufactured over a four year period as a development company. To date there are over 3,000 Broadband Optical Wireless Access Systems installed world wide. It is also an excellent way of carrying out short term temporary installations. Is there direct line of sight As Broadband Optical Wireless Access systems operate point to point they require a clear line of sight, when assessing installations allowances must be made for any trees or obstructions etc. which may impair operation. Typical things to look for are young trees with considerable growth left or areas of land which may have construction work carried out.
