So 700TB over 20 Days, that's about 4gb/s average. I wonder what these are feeding on each end, that that amount of traffic suddenly turned on, or if it's literally extending an ISP on each end. Or is this just test traffic.

Yeah... other than potentially being capable of more bandwidth, and maybe getting around some regulations, I can't imagine what advantage there would be.

    There's a whiz-bang-wow factor for free space optics. I'm not sure
    if there's any real technical advantage over millimeter wave
    though.  None that I'm currently aware of.

    Seems to me like you're almost always going to be a lot better
    off just using 80ghz (or even 60ghz, depending on
    requirements)... I guess if you need more than 10Gbps it might
    make sense, but otherwise, it seems like playing with this stuff
    is just going to cause a lot of unnecessary headaches.

        I hope its come along way. we did some and it was awful. auto
        alignment had to be turned of because it would sometimes just
        start adjusting and go out of alignment like it was having a
        seizure. lens fogging was awful. We had one where it would
        take a courthouse down roughly the same time every day,
        finally tracked it to sun reflection off an aluminum parapet.
        i had to haul a truck tarp up onto the roof to cover the
        parapet to prove it. The only place for lasers is in flexible
        glass

            Yep...they tried one from a bank building in El Paso to
            Juarez back in the late 1990s...22 story building moved
            too much...we ended up installing a 23Ghz link but from
            another location.

                I would think now it would be easier to mount the
                laser in a gyro stabilized gimbal to account for the
                movement. In the 90’s that technology was not
                affordable. Image stabilizing cameras exist, gyro
                stabilized RC helicopters and drones are commonplace.

                I did too. Mexico City.  E1 data rate.  High rise
