One wire less with a wireless display adapter from DisplayLink and Alereon

DisplayLink and Alereon on January 7-12 at the Consumer Electronics Show CES 2008 will show a new joint development - a video adapter that will allow you to connect a monitor to your PC using Wireless USB technology.

According to the manufacturers, the device will allow transmitting a signal to a monitor located at a distance of up to three meters. The voiced bandwidth of the channel is 120-150 Mbit per second, which will allow to transmit a video signal with a resolution of 1680 × 1050 pixels with 16.7 million colors. Due to the use of lossless data compression technology, the picture quality should be no worse than when using a conventional wired monitor.

However, at the same time you can connect not one but six monitors to a “wireless video card”. But in this case, the picture quality will, of course, be much worse. To work in the office it will be quite enough, but "gamers will not be satisfied."

Alereon has used the AL5000 chipset (which includes all RF circuits) as a filling device, and Hardware Rendering Engine and Virtual Graphics Card software from the DisplayLink side.

Wireless display adapters will be available only in spring 2008. At the moment, their preliminary cost ranges from $ 150 to $ 250. It is worth noting that monitors that are compatible with this technology will cost the buyer at least $ 150 more than the usual "wired".
