fSONAs SONAbeam Powers Indy Racing League's Timing and Scoring Network
fSONA Communications, producer of the SONAbeam series of optical wireless products, today announced that the Indy Racing League, the nations leading open-wheel oval-track racing series, selected the SONAbeam 155-E to deliver a portable last-mile solution for their timing and scoring data network.
Vancouver, Canada July 19, 2004 -- fSONA Communications, producer of the SONAbeam series of optical wireless products, today announced that the Indy Racing League, the nation's leading open-wheel oval-track racing series, selected the SONAbeam 155-E to deliver a portable last-mile solution for their timing and scoring data network.
The IRL chose the SONAbeam 155-E because, unlike RF-based wireless solutions, optical wireless technology is capable of delivering the high-bandwidth they required without interference with the IRL's other communication devices. In addition, the SONAbeam E series is lightweight, compact and very easy to transport and install.
"The SONAbeam is a great product for the IRL," said Jon Koskey, Director of Timing and Scoring for the Indy Racing League. "At each race, the SONAbeam has performed superbly. Although reliable operation is our top priority, one of the best things has been how easy the SONAbeam is to install. We attended an fSONA training course to get up to speed but the installation process is so easy I cant believe they even offer training on it."
The SONAbeam 155-E transports vital race data, including race scoring and lap timing information from the scoring tower to the pit cart using the Fast Ethernet protocol at 100 Mbps. This allows each team sees the information in near real-time during pre-race qualifications, practice sessions and race day. At each race, in each city, the units are set up by the team to transport data. The tour will take the SONAbeam all over the United States, and even to Japan for the Indy Japan 300.
"We're very excited about having the Indy Racing League as a customer, commented Sunny Taylor, Regional Director USA for fSONA. Obviously, speed is of prime importance to the IRL, and the SONAbeam certainly delivers speed, and not just bandwidth speed but speed of install as well."
