Digital Atlantic Offers Wi-O

LEESBURG, Va. -- Digital Atlantic, a Virginia-based manufacturer of affordable broadband wireless equipment, today announced general availability of a Wireless OpticalWare(TM)(Wi-O(TM)) product line that makes broadband connections accessible and more affordable at enterprise or edge networks.

"As the Wi-O name implies, our product offering is a confluence of several technologies," said Digital Atlantic's Chief Operating Officer John White. "We have merged wireless technology -- including wireless fidelity or 'Wi-Fi' -- with the science of optics and switching to create a wireless broadband solution we believe solves many of today's connectivity issues." Wi-O consists of three primary components that can be used as standalone products, or combined to deliver an Ethernet solution capable of 10/100 Mbps or Gigabit Ethernet at distances up to 1000 feet. "We have engineered our product to be the best in its class," said Digital Atlantic's Chief Technology Officer Peter Chiou. "Our platform is based on our patented Cascaded Line-of-Sight repeater technology, which enables us to provide connectivity with options of adding and dropping traffic at any point as well as removing any obstacle issues." The Wi-O products and the functions they perform are:
