Lightspeed™ K-Core

Free-Space Optical Transceiver

KIntroducing the K-Core (Kilobits-core)

Compact, High- and Low-Speed Free-Space Optical (FSO) Transceivers designed for integration.

Engineered for mission-critical performance, the K-Core offer
covert, wireless, high-bandwidth optical communications
at distances up to 500 meters. Designed for seamless
integration into defense platforms, these transceivers
enable secure, interference-free links—without reliance on
congested or compromised RF spectrums.

Key Features:

  • 500 m Tactical LOS Range: Reliable performance in rural, industrial, or urban environments. Ideal for asset to FOB, base-to-vehicle, UAV, or deployed sensor backhauls.
  • Operational Flexibility: Works in RF denied, GPScompromised, and spectrum-contested environments.
  • Hard-to-Intercept Optical Link: Inherent LPI/LPD– No RF emissions, virtually immune to jamming.
  • Integration-Ready: Compact form factor, modular interface, and plug-and-play interface means they’re up instantly.
  • Low Power, High Performance: Optimized for the absolute minimum consumption possible; embedded and mobile platforms.
