Now HDMI link goes wireless

The digital HDMI interface is the latest technology to be grafted on to emerging Ultra Wideband (UWB) links, which promise short-range communication at rates of up to 480Mbits/sec.

UWB is, in effect, a virtual wire that can be used with any protocol. A Bluetooth version has been drawn up and specifications for a Wireless USB implementation are expected to be finalised shortly.

Now Philips has announced a UWB wireless system that can replace a physical HDMI link and carry high-definition video without loss over 25ft. It supports digital-rights management to prevent interception of data in the air. A kit will be available in the US by May for a suggested price of $299 ([pounds sterling]154), Philips said at CES.

The system will not be available

in Europe until the technology receives regulatory approval.
