Applications
Secure (HIPAA-compliant) campus
connectivity, off-site medical office & lab network access, real-time
imaging application connectivity, redundant fiber overlay and disaster
recovery.
Synopsis
Medical applications are among the most
demanding in terms of network capacity, real-time performance,
mission-critical reliability, and data security. Fiber optic cabling is
the primary technology of choice to provide these requirements, however
it is often difficult or costly to connect fiber to buildings across
city streets or beyond the main campus. BridgeWave 60GHz and E-Band
links are the natural choices to provide fiber equivalent performance
together with fiber equivalent security. Applications such as electronic
patient records and high-resolution medical imaging are well-supported
with full GigE bandwidth and ultra-low latency performance. BridgeWave
links have very narrow beamwidths that form “spatial pipes” between the
ends, providing data security that is superior to inter-building fiber
cabling. The physical security provided by BridgeWave links make them a
clear choice for implementing HIPPA-compliant networks.
Pexx Value Proposition
BridgeWave 60GHz and E-Band links offer
full-GigE LAN performance for HIPPA-compliant networks at the price of
lower-frequency "WiFi based" links that offer less than a tenth of the
performance and lack the "spatial pipe" security benefits. BridgeWave
links provide a fast-to-deploy, flexible alternative to costly
inter-building fiber installations. Alternatively, they can provide a
cost-effective 100% spatially diverse redundant path for
mission-critical fiber connections.
