Li-Fi HotSpot - Wireless communication with light
The LiFi HotSpot is suitable for data transmission over longer distances. The Li-Fi HotSpot is suitable for replacing W-LAN networks and cable connections with a data transmission rate of maximum 1 Gbit/s for transmission over longer distances. Comparable to a W-LAN hotspot, individual but also several users can dial into the network simultaneously. Due to the necessary line-of-sight connection, the LiFi connection offers significantly higher data security than conventional network accesses.
