GigaBeam today said it has installed its Gigabit Ethernet high-frequency wireless point-to-point equipment at two new college campuses, Boston University and Oklahoma State University.

Both installed last week, the two projects are in addition to deals announced with Dartmouth College and the University of Maryland, giving GigaBeam momentum in its attempts to target the higher education sector.

“The deployments validate the market for our technology in education where access to large volumes of information in a timely manner is important,” GigaBeam CEO Louis Slaughter said in a statement.

GigaBeam’s WiFiber uses the new 71 GHz to 76 GHz and 81 GHz to 86 GHz bands to create extremely high-capacity, high-powered links across metropolitan areas. Splitting the uplink and downlink between the two 5 MHz bands, GigaBeam says it can achieve Gigabit Ethernet speeds of 1 Gb/s and has plans to introduce a 10 Gb/s product utilizing either Gigabit Ethernet or OC-192 protocols.

The Boston University deployment links the institutions medical school campus in Boston’s South End with the main campus in Kenmore Square. The University of Oklahoma installation connects two medical campuses in Tulsa.
