Taara Lightbridge: Bridging the Connectivity Gap with Light
2025-03-17
Taara addresses the growing global demand for data by offering a solution to the high cost and difficulty of traditional fiber optic cable deployment. Their Lightbridge system uses narrow beams of light to transmit data wirelessly at speeds up to 20 Gbps over distances of up to 20 kilometers. Installation takes only hours, eliminating the need for trenching or cable laying. This technology brings high-speed internet access to areas previously underserved, including dense cities, across bodies of water, and in rugged terrain, unlocking economic, educational, and social benefits.
