Wi-OW: Wireless Communication With Diffused Laser Beams.

Wi-OW™: Fiber Optics Without The Fiber.

Wi-OW & Defense

National Security &
Defense

Wi-OW’s diffused laser beam technology provides stealth, unjammable, anti-eavesdropping mobile communication for defense applications, ranging from UGVs and military camps to SCIFs.

Wi-OW & AR:VR

Gaming? AR/VR?
Try Wi-OW!

We integrate the power of Wi-Fi 7 with our diffused laser beam solution to open the door to various new AR and VR experiences, experiences that would never be possible with Wi-Fi. With Wi-OW, we bring the AR/VR industry back to life!

Wi-OW is Wi-Fi with lasers.

10x Faster Than Wi-Fi 7

Wi-OW, Light Links’ patent-pending technology, introduces a new unidirectional laser-based wireless medium seamlessly integrated with Wi-Fi 7. Offering data rates 10 times faster than Wi-Fi, while maintaining the same level of reliability.

Wi-OW is the enhanced version of Wi-Fi. When Wi-Fi falls short—whether in defense, national security, or bandwidth-heavy applications—Wi-OW steps in to break through the limits and deliver unmatched performance.
