All, I'm sure some of you have heard of this technology and may know something about it. I've just started reading up on it and find it very exciting! It's called LMDS and stands for Local Multipoint Distribution Service (LMDS) uses millimeterwave signals in the 28 GHz spectrum to transmit voice, video, and data signals within cells 3-10 miles in diameter. LMDS is a microwave broadband service that will allow license holders to control up to 1.3 GHz of wireless spectrum in the 28 GHz Ka-band once FCC auctions have been completed. The extremely high frequency point to multipoint transmissions will be "cellular," based on multiple contiguous, or overlapping cell COMS would benefit by supplying ethernet products and perhaps other products ajs2.com The following is a list of the necessary equipment for receiving LMDS: * A roof mounted transceiver, or antenna, which receives/transmits the 28 GHz signal from/to the hub. * An up/downconverter which would change the frequency of the microwave signals to a lower intermediate frequency that the electronics in the home/office can more easily (and inexpensively) manipulate. * Network interface unit which controls the interaction of household or business devices with the transceiver. * A telephony interface, as LMDS has the potential to be used for second-line telephony. * An Ethernet computer interface which may be configured to be either a 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps Ethernet connection, and will allow for multiple computer devices to be connected. * A television set-top box. LMDS set-top boxes deployed in the future will most likely be digital. The digital set-top box will receive MPEG-2 video (already downconverted to an intermediate frequency), decode it, transform it back to an analog signal, and pass it to a connected television set. All of these services can be transported simultaneously using LMDS. The following thread is having discussions on this and other emerging technologies if anyones interested.. exchange2000.com ajs2.com Derek
