Alternative Transmission Systems for Long-Distance Latency Reduction
Reduced long-distance transmission latency by leveraging near line-of-sight communication systems, approaching theoretical speed-of-light limits.
Situation
Traditional fiber routes introduced geographic and routing inefficiencies, increasing latency between major trading locations.
Solution
Alternative communication infrastructure was deployed. This minimized path length and reduced latency compared to fiber-based routing.
