2. Free Space Optical Products

A subsidiary company owned by Parsec, Redline designs and manufactures carrier class free space optical (FSO) transceiver systems that deliver high-speed, cost effective bandwidth. The growth and convergence of telecoms and datacoms has accelerated access needs for high speed transmission. The technology that delivers last mile bandwidth most cost efficiently is Free Space Optics (FSO).

FSO transmits data, voice or video between two points within line-of-sight using an optical signal through free space - a "virtual“ cable. It delivers the simplicity of a wireless solution with data rates comparable to fiber. The key technology advantage is lowest cost per bandwidth kilometer.
