Communications and transmissions are two fundamental concepts that follow the human being from the beginning. Free Space Optics is only one of the several choices that we have today in the complex and mixed telecommunication environment (WiFi, WiMax, LTE, Fibre, Coax, GSM, UMTS, et alt). With its inherent carachteristics like ease of installation, fast ROI, low CAPEX, intrinsic security, broad band and with its wide applications range, from under sea to deep space, free space optics represents today a solution that all the telecom actors have to take into account. Especially now that 10/100 GEthernet technology is appearing at the horizon.
