Fiber-Optic Wireless Network Being Built in New Mexico
Posted Jan 18th 2006 3:25PM by Michael Sciannamea
A technology group led by Olla Grande that includes Intel, Sandia National
Laboratories, and MIT is planning to construct a wireless network in New Mexico, based on the LambdaRail system, that is predicted to be
up to times faster than any other similar network in the U.S. LambdaRail is a high-speed national computer network that
runs over fiber-optic lines and is characterized as the first transcontinental Ethernet network. According to Olla
Grande, the network will begin operating within a month in parts of Sandoval County.
As with most initiatives of this type where broadband wireless access is made available to a large population base,
economic development is the most commonly cited reason as to why these projects are undertaken.
