Black Box Networks PICO systems Pico Manual v5.1 2 Optical free space transmission The principle used in free space laser transmission is very similar to the one is used for fiber optic transmission. The difference is while fiber optic devices use electronics and optics optimised for optical fiber, free space communication equipment deploys electronics and optics optimised for transmission through the air. Also you can observe the similarity in the transmission properties. No galvan

Black Box Networks PICO systems Pico Manual v5.1 Most typically the Black Box-Pico is used to interconnect LAN-s, or computers. The system is protocol transparent, thus other applications also can be taken into consideration. Appropriate interface converters are needed and system bandwidth must be matched for that. Here we collected some circumstances, where the employment of the Black Box is the most adequate and cost effective solution. Those are: 2.1 Areas with natural or ar

The buildings or structures, the available space and the accessibility of the place will be different in each case. Nevertheless, as a general rule it is very important to select the installation site so, that nobody can look directly into the transmitter. For this reason place the head either so high (on the side wall of the building) or so close to the edge of the building (on a
