Okinawa Marines Test Future of Wireless Communications

Marines with 7th Communication Battalion are conducting tests with the new free space optics communications system at Camp Hansen, Okinawa, Japan. The highly secured FSO system employs an infrared laser, which allows more users on a single network and larger files, imagery and information to be transmitted.
