The TeraOptic 4221e is the latest in a line of high-bandwidth, carrier-grade systems developed
by Proxim. It is unique among our solutions in that it operates via free-space optics and thus
does not use radio frequency. The system is a cost-effective solution for high-bandwidth
connectivity at ranges less than one kilometer, and is ideal for deployments such as mobile
wireless backhaul, single customer access, multi-tenant building access, enterprise E1/T1, Fast
Ethernet extension and LAN-to-LAN or campus connectivity.
