These devices implement a subset of the IEEE's 802.11 standard.

These lasers, whilst most certainly gnarly, are absolutely unrelated. They're more akin to optical comms without the fiber. ]]>Sep 12th 2008 11:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/
Just as it says in the article, in fact.

"what frequency of laser was used? Is there such a thing as a 2.4ghz lazer? That would go through walls."

The 2.4ghz is undoubtable the frequency that packets of information is sent at. The frequency of the actual laser will determine it's wavelength (ie colour). It'll be far greater than 2.4ghz. The intensity of the laser will determine whether it'll blow stuff up.

I was about to commet how this isn't wifi, but although it needs line of sight, it is electromagnetic waves just like the radio wifi works over.]]>Sep 12th 2008 11:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/
Although to do the maths.

1.2Tbps = 1319413953331.2 pulses per sec
1319413953331.2 = 1319413953331.2Hz = 1.2THz.

Yes, its that simple :)]]>Sep 12th 2008 3:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/Sep 12th 2008 6:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/Sep 12th 2008 8:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/Sep 12th 2008 10:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/Sep 12th 2008 11:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/Sep 12th 2008 11:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/Sep 12th 2008 3:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/Sep 12th 2008 5:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/12/worlds-fastest-wifi-uses-lasers/
