Fiber

“All the cheap fiber has
already been laid.”
Range and Reliability
| The Information contained in this presentation is confidential. It is not to be distributed to third parties without the express written consent of GigaBeam Corporation.
• No RF is impervious to weather: our “sweet spot” is the last 1-2 miles
– We ONLY see torrential rain (3+ inches per hour)
• The tradeoffs
– In dry air: 10 mile range
– Over the course of a year
• Five 9’s to a mile in 80% of the continental US
• Five 9’s to 0.7 miles in the rest (FL-LA)
• Europe: Longer ranges
– At Four 9’s, distance doubles, and at Three 9’s, nearly double again: useful in the 3rd world
– In a properly designed ring, the distance of each link can be doubled: rotational diversity
• To repeat, we do NOT see dust, fog, snow, ice, scintillation, oxygen, molecule absorption, light rain, medium rain

• Form Factor– Radio – 1ft cubed– Antenna – 12” or 24”
• Mount – mono-pole, tower, window, or rooftop• Pencil beam – low spread, low dispersion• Rated radio draw - 70 Watts (less than a light bulb)• Measured draw – 50-55 Watts• Power output - 100mw (less than a cellular phone)• SNMP Monitoring • Installation: 4 hours or less• Alignment: typically 30 minutes of the four hours• Web based filing to get the spectrum license: 20 minutes

• 13,000 MHz
– (71-76, 81-86, & 92-95GHz)
– 50+ times all cellular combined
– “Gobs of spectrum”
• Licensed pencil beams
• Nearly free to all comers
• Lightening fast approval process
International
| The Information contained in this presentation is confidential. It is not to be distributed to third parties without the express written consent of GigaBeam Corporation.
Outside the US, fiber is less available and
access costs are often double or more US costs
• CEPT—European wide bandplan granted – UK, Ireland, Norway, Spain, others showing progress
• Circuits approved for installation in Australia, South Africa,
Bahrain
• Growing interest in Japan, China, and Middle East
