At 2025 Mobile World Congress in BarcelonaPurelifi and Solace Power announced on Monday a new and innovative product: the Linxc bridge system.
The objective of the Linxc bridge is to activate fixed wireless access providers – including Home Internet 5Gother Cellular high speed suppliers And Satellite internet – to deploy wide -band services more quickly and more easily to customers.
Exploit the power of Li-Fi technologyWho uses light signals to transmit data, the Linxc bridge promises a low latency and the potential for downloading speeds up to 5,000 megabits per second.
How will this bridge system really work? It consists of small interior and exterior units that attach to a window. The external unit receives the cell signal or satellite and, using Li-Fi, transfers which signal through the glass to the indoor unit, which essentially diffuses this data to a Wi-Fi router at home. The Linxc bridge can provide up to 20 watts of power and 1 Gbit / s of data via a window. As this is a wireless solution, it can eliminate a long installation process and facilitate wide -band deployment for Internet suppliers and consumers. And because the receiver is outside the house, it can make high speed at home 5G viable even in areas where the signal is not the best.
“The enthusiastic response of our collaborations with the world’s main brands of telecommunications validates the processor of the Linxc bridge system,” said Alistair Banham, CEO of Purelifi.
“This latest technology is about to revolutionize the economy of the deployment of FWA and high speed worldwide, making high-speed connectivity more accessible, affordable and efficient for large-band suppliers, ultimately improving services and user satisfaction,” he said. “The market clearly goes to Li-Fi because it will resolve the challenges of today’s and tomorrow’s connectivity.”
Where is this technology available?
A spokesperson for Purelifi told CNET that the Linxc bridge is still in its trial period. However, consumers in the United States will be among the first to have access. The spokesperson has shared that the system can help fill the gap for the many fixed wireless operators who are struggling to provide wireless internet connectivity to the Americans.
“American carriers encounter problems with sufficient network capacity and the Linxc bridge can help them solve this by moving the 5G modem outside,” said Purelifi spokesperson.
At that time, T-Mobile announced in December that more than a million users are on the waiting list of the internet service at 5G.
Many rural communities have minimal access to adequate internet connections. In areas where Cellular Internet Connections increase to help fill the wide-band gap for rural Americans, this LIFFI solution can help solve network capacity problems among large-band suppliers.
What are the advantages of using this technology?
The li-fi promises high speeds and lower latency than Wi-Fi, and the Linxc bridge also boasts other positive points:
- A simpler and more profitable installation process: This product aims to facilitate the lives of wide -band companies and to be a faster and cheaper option for customers. (More details on this subject in a little.)
- Faster and low latency speeds: The LinxcW bridge system can promise multi-cligabit speeds up to 5 Gbit / s. Overall, Li-Fi technology will have lower latency than Wi-Fi.
- Energy efficient: LI-FI technology is fueled by LED bulbs.
- Increased security: Li-Fi technology is already used among organizations in the defense and government sectors.
The installation of the Linxc bridge system could be more profitable than the installation of the Internet in cable or fiber. This wireless system works as an outdoor CPE or a wireless networking device which can be easily installed outside the house, eliminating the need to drill holes or pass cables through the walls.
The installation will also be fast and easy. The system uses Li-Fi communications and wireless power links via a window. Purelifi’s spokesperson told me that the configuration did not take as little as five minutes.
It should be noted that Li-Fi technology is not without defects. One of the main criticisms is its limited range, that is probably why technology is not yet common. Li-Fi is based on light signals, so your connection will be limited to closed spaces.
