Benefits Of Using LiFi Internet

By Kimberly Harris


Over the past few years, there have been quite a number of changes in the wireless technology. These changes have made it possible to do business at the coffee shop as if you are still in the office. People are able to hold meetings with their clients while they are still in their own living rooms. This can be attributed to the use of wireless connections such as Wi-Fi. Recent developments in the technology have enabled data to be transferred by use of light. This light can be visible or ultraviolet. This technology is called LiFi internet and has a number of advantages as discussed below.

One of its primary advantages is speed. When transferring data, the main concern of a user is how fast the data is transferred. No one enjoys slow speeds. Users can enjoy high data transfer speeds never seen before. It is 100 times faster than Wi-Fi. Theoretically, a high definition film can be downloaded in thirty seconds. This faster communication leads to better service quality and better communication.

LiFi is cost-effective in different ways. This is different from setting up a Wi-Fi network where one requires to buy cables and additional hardware. Office buildings can stay connected without the use of cables. The technology uses LED bulbs which means that the ones being used for lighting in an office or house are the same ones to be utilized.

When it comes to wireless connections, security has been a major issue. It is very important to have a secure wireless network. LiFi technology offers the most secure connections. This is because it is only accessed by people within the room. It uses light and light does not go through walls since they are opaque. It is safe from unauthorized access by people outside the room. This makes better than Wi-Fi.

LiFi technology is very efficient in a number of ways especially when it comes to power consumption. This is because it uses LED bulbs. Every house or office already have these bulbs installed for lighting purposes. These bulbs are the same ones that will be used to transfer data. If lights must be off, then the bulbs are turned for the human eye but can still transmit data. Also, power consumption is minimal because there is no additional hardware required unlike when installing Wi-Fi where routers must be installed also.

This technology is more available than any other wireless technology. This is because it can be used anywhere as long as there is LED light bulbs. These bulbs are available in our houses, offices, planes, ships and even in underground train tunnels. This makes it possible to transfer data and establish communications even when one is in very remote areas.

There are places where common transmissions and frequencies cannot be used to transfer data because they may lead to dangerous effects. Such areas mostly include chemical and petroleum plants. This connectivity is safe to use in such areas. This helps to improve communication and data transfers within the plants which in turn efficiency in the companies.

These are just a number of benefits of this new technology. More improvements are being made and so far LiFi technology has greatly improved wireless access and transfer of data. While this technology maintains a few disadvantages, it is preferred due to its availability and the high speeds.
