Nexus Awarded LightPointe Certified Partner Status

Nexus Open Systems of Exeter today announced that it has attained LightPointe Certified Flight Partner status. This allows Nexus to supply LightPointe's market-proven optical wireless network products, further demonstrating the company's continuing commitment to remain at the forefront of computer network integration.
LightPoint's portfolio of optical wireless solutions provides Nexus with cost effective methods of securing high-speed network connectivity between locations where direct line-of-sight is possible. In the past, businesses have had to lay expensive fibre optic cable or utilise slower, more insecure wireless technology to provide a network between two buildings. Optical wireless or 'laser' devices now present an ideal alternative; fast, secure and economical.
Optical wireless networking products utilise beams close to the infra-red spectrum to transmit data across distances of up to 5600 metres, at speeds from 100Mbps up to 2.5Gbps. Connecting your offices or buildings using LightPointe optical networking devices allows you to provide seamless computer network access and enough bandwidth for intensive applications such as IP telephony, video conferencing or CAD.
LightPointe optical solutions cater for differing needs, from small to medium-sized businesses, through to enterprise sized organisations or service providers. Nexus can demonstrate that optical technology provides many distinct advantages over traditional Wide Area Networking solutions.
Dave Courts, Technical Director at Nexus add LightPointe's products can be installed within a few hours and provide a superb price-per-bit ratio. Unlike Wi-Fi (802.11) connections, they are invulnerable to RF interference and can transmit and receive data across far greater distances.
