Transcelestial is pioneering “wireless fiber optics,” delivering fiber-like speeds through laser technology, which offers secure, high-speed last-mile connectivity at a fraction of the deployment time and cost compared to traditional fiber.
Problem
- High-speed internet challenges: Existing wireless technologies can’t support the projected 10x data growth globally over the next 5 years.
- Limitations of fiber optics: While effective, fiber optics are costly and difficult to scale due to high labour costs, maintenance demands, and land rights issues.
- Need for scalable solutions: There’s a pressing need for scalable, cost-effective, and high-speed connectivity solutions for both terrestrial and space use cases.
Solution
- Laser-powered high-speed data transfer: Transcelestial uses lasers to transmit data 1000x faster than RF technologies across long distances, bypassing the limitations of traditional wireless solutions and avoiding spectrum restrictions.
- Proprietary pointing system: Their proprietary PAT (Pointing, Acquisition, Tracking) system ensures precise, efficient point-to-point data transfer with compact devices weighing less than 3kg.
- Scalable connectivity: The production-ready Centauri device delivers up to 10 Gbps over 3 km, while future plans include a space laser network in Low Earth Orbit for global high-speed internet coverage.
