Let me tell you right from the start that this gadget from CablesToGo is only available for pre-ordering at the moment, and is expected to ship starting with June 1. This kit is essential to any entertainment center found in regular homes or offices. That is, if you do not wish to enable the
HD signal on all of your HDMI devices with the help of unaesthetic and very expensive cables.
The kit consists of a 60 GHz
Wireless HDMI transmitter and one 60 GHz Wireless HD receiver, which can send Full-HD, 1,080p high-definition within the standard 33-foot (ten-meter) radius. Unfortunately, the TruLink 1-Port 60 GHz Wireless HD Kit and the device you want to have HD signal on via wireless technology have to be in the same room. On top of that, the transmitter and the receiver have to be placed at the same level, as they only work within the line of sight, so there will be no cabinet storing for either one of them.
Apart from this, the plug-and-play CablesToGo solution for wireless HD will support even 7.1 surround sound transmitting and it will spread the high-definition signal at distances higher than ten meters if it works in optimal conditions. This makes it a very convenient component of an
entertainment center, which usually consists of many HDMI-capable devices. The highest transfer rates that can be achieved by the TruLink Wireless HD Kit are of 4 GB/s.
It works with the HDMI 1.3 protocol and it has received FCC and CE approvals. It costs USD499 and two 1.2m HDMI 1.3 cables are included with the kit, one remote control for on/off control and a wall-mounting bracket. It seems like a good deal, if the space in which you need them meets the required functioning standards.
