Laser bridge

Laser bridge

A laser bridge is a network bridge that transmits data between two network segments via laser.

It is often used as an upmarket alternative to microwave links used in Fixed wireless situations and can provide much higher data rates than microwave links at a cost relatively similar. They are also harder to interfere with and eavesdrop.
