Canobeam - Free Space Optics

Canobeam™ is a Free Space Optics solution that provides a point-to-point wireless optical beam transmission system.
As part of the Molex total product range, Canobeam is ideal for campus and building-to-building connectivity as either a primary or backup backbone link. The robust Canobeam can be installed outside or in a window for point-to-point applications.

Fibre Optic Cable has proven to be the preferred backbone media to link buildings and users, but sometimes installing fibre optic cable is not the most feasible option - over roads, bodies of water, railways or where the cost of installing fibre is prohibitive. Molex recognises this and has a global partnership with Canon to provide a secure high bandwidth Free Space Optics solution.  Canobeam™

Highlights of Canobeam MFSO-100 series

High speed economical transmission from 25Mbps to an ultra-fast 1.25Gbps
High-quality, reliable wireless communications to a distance of up to 2km
Auto Tracking that compensates for movements in the building due to temperature variations or vibrations
Built-in Management Board to manage transceivers via SNMP or Telnet
Protocol independent, like fibre optic cable
Installation and operating costs are typically lower than installing fibre optic cable
There are three models available in the Canobeam family: MFSO-110, MFSO-120 and MFSO-130. Each model covers different needs in terms of data transfer speeds (from 25Mbps to 1.25Gbps) and over transmission distances of up to 2km. The specifications of each model are outlined in Table 1.1 overleaf.Auto Tracking provides stable communicationsAll of the models within the Canobeam MFSO-100 Series employ Canon’s patented Automatic Tracking Function that maintains ideal beam alignment, compensating for slight movement in the building due to temperature variations and vibration due to wind and other factors.Canobeam also offers high security as the point to point wireless transmission using an optical beam is virtually impossible to tap into due to its narrow footprint.
