Aalyria is establishing a laser link mesh network to quickly transmit data on land, in the air, in the ocean, and in space. The maritime part of the plan is about to be pushed forward.

Recently, this DC based laser communication network company announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding with HICO Investment Group, which focuses on investing in shipping and logistics companies. According to the agreement, Aalyria will deploy up to 200 Tightbeam laser terminals on ships in the Middle East, Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Caribbean.

Good grid division: Aalyria stood out from stealth last year, obtained a large number of IPs from Alphabet, and plans to completely change connectivity. The company has two products:
Tightbeam is a laser terminal that can simultaneously transmit speeds of 100 Gbps per wavelength in both directions. This terminal can be connected to ground, sea, air, and space platforms.

Spacetime is a network orchestration software that can draw the most effective route for a segment of data on a large network. The company has signed a contract with Rivada Space Networks to coordinate communication for its planned 600 bird constellations.

Aalyria's laser communication method can eliminate the need to lay miles of fiber optic cables or connect to pure satellite networks for fast connectivity.

It's a bit like going from copper to fiber optic, going back to the past, "Aalyria CEO Chris Taylor told Payload. This is a very big turning point in connectivity.

Contract: According to this memorandum of understanding, Aalyria will collaborate with HICO to deploy its second-generation universal joint laser terminals on up to 200 ships in multiple regions. This is the first commercial agreement signed by the company to deploy terminals on board ships.
