Lightspeed™ R60
Omnidirectional Free-Space Optical (FSO) Transceiver for Secure Network Communications
Mission Aligned Omnidirectional Optical Networks
In modern threat environments, traditional RF is noisy, jammed, and easily intercepted. The R60 offers a nextgen omnidirectional Free-Space Optical transceiver that enables secure, RF-free communication at ranges up to 1,000 meters in all directions—ideal for dynamic, mobile, and contested defense scenarios.
Key Advantages
- Omnidirectional Coverage: Enables multiple simultaneous, line-of-sight links across 360° up to 1,000 m
- Covert by Design: No RF emissions; virtually undetectable and immune to jamming – ideal for EW-threatened theaters
- High Throughput, Low Latency: Supports encrypted command, control, sensor, and video streams
- Rugged & Modular: Built for field deployment and seamless platform integration (UGV, UAV, perimeter nodes)
- Integration-Ready: Standard data interfaces, compact SWaP-C profile, SDK and mechanical support for OEMs
Applications
- Tactical operations in GPS-/RF-denied zones
- Ad hoc battlefield networks
- Autonomous ground/air coordination
- Silent outpost or base networking links
- Mobile command post data bridges
Whether mounted on a UAV, vehicle, mast, or fixed defense asset, the R60 enables tactical optical networking without the vulnerabilities of RF, making it fully mission aligned for RF-congested, GPS-denied environments.
