BOONS:
1. Low power requirements
2. Low circuitry costs
3. Simple circuitry: no special or proprietary hardware is required, can be incorporated into the integrated circuit of a product
4. Higher security: directionality of the beam helps ensure that data isn't leaked or spilled to nearby devices
as it's transmitted
5. Portable
6. High noise immunity: not as likely to have interference from signals from other devices
BANES:
1. Line of sight: transmitters and receivers must be almost directly aligned (i.e. able to see each other) to communicate
2. Blocked by common materials: people, walls, plants, etc. can block transmission
3. Short range: performance drops off with longer distances
4. Light, weather sensitive: direct sunlight, rain, fog, dust, pollution can affect transmission
5. Speed: data rate transmission is lower than typical wired transmission
