Taara and StarTouch Collaborate to Deliver Fiber-Grade Connectivity

Taara, a company specializing in high-capacity Wireless Optical Communications, has partnered with StarTouch, a leading managed services provider. This collaboration aims to bring fiber-grade capacity and resilience to enterprise customers at scale.

Taara's flagship product, the Taara Lightbridge solution, uses beams of light through the air to deliver high-capacity, low-latency connectivity. The solution has been proven in challenging terrains, such as across the Congo River and remote communities of urban and rural India.

One of the key advantages of the Taara Lightbridge solution is its quick deployment. Unlike traditional fiber optic networks, which can take months to install, the Taara Lightbridge solution can be deployed in a matter of hours. This makes it an ideal solution for connecting communities where fiber is difficult or impossible to reach.

Atul Bhatnagar, who has served as the President and CEO of Ixia and Cambium Networks, has been appointed as an Advisor to Taara. Bhatnagar brings over three decades of experience in communications, networking, and artificial intelligence (AI). He has also advised organizations in the fields of AI and quantum computing.

Bhatnagar is recognized for building resilient, scalable, and cost-effective networks that support both people and machines. He will provide guidance on developing robust architectures that optimize cost-effectiveness, scalability, and ease of deployment for global markets.

The Taara Lightbridge solution is capable of delivering fiber-grade capacity and resilience, and it can support high capacity applications like real-time video streaming services and AI workloads. It has also been integrated into StarTouch's enterprise connectivity portfolio, and is being used by StarTouch to deliver its enterprise connectivity services.

The collaboration between Taara and StarTouch allows for the delivery of fiber-grade capacity and resilience to enterprise customers at scale. This partnership is set to revolutionize the way businesses connect to high-speed, reliable networks, especially in remote and challenging locations.
