Canon makes one. I just saw an ad for it, in NetworkWorld magazine as
I recall. Called Canobeam.

The oldest ones I am aware of were called
"LACE units". Apparently this is an acronym for Laser Atmospheric
Communications *something*

But they were quite hard to find. The company was pretty stealth.
They are all over, once I saw one installed I started seeing them
around. Building to building bridges.

You might have to try not to be disappointed when you see the price of long
range laser units

Their are great (MUCH more secure) until you get snow, rain or fog in the way -
depending on the distance covered of cause.
