USB Active Extension Cable

Date: 11/15/2012  Author: admin  Category: ,

When you are in the market for a USB active extension cable, you had better make sure that you understand all about the all-important extension cable length. It all comes down to how you figure out your USB extension cable maximum length, but remember this. In the future, this will likely change, just like all things in the world of technology. In other words, a reliable maximum length today will eventually become obsolete in the future.

The maximum length of the extension cable will actually be founded upon two very important pieces of criteria: the purpose for which the cable is going to be used and also the specific kind of cable. In cases where the actual cable fails to come with an active repeater chip, then it is clearly going to belong to the passive category of cables and will thus be about 16 feet in length. For some people, just having 16 extra feet for an extension cable is naturally not going to be nearly enough. For these people, they should look into buying some active USB extension cables. With active USB cables, though, you are still going to be limited somewhat, though by not nearly as much as the passive cables. Active USB cables can give you up to 80 feet of additional length, which ought to really be satisfactory in most cases. Read More

Wireless Projector Server

Ever hear of a wireless projector server before? If you have not, then you are potentially missing out on a specific piece of technology that could well make your life a whole lot easier. For instance, with the right wireless server, it is possible for you to efficiently network either a display monitor or a projector. Are you perhaps then wondering for just what purposes these devices are ideal? Here are some examples, in no particular order: seminars, business meetings and even business presentations. By way of a wireless LAN (which is an acronym that stands for local area network), the projector server lets any given presenter attach their PC to the projector.

What does all of this mean in practical terms, then? Well, what all of this means is that the necessity to swap cables between PCs is a thing of the past to say the least. As a result, the practical consequences of this type of device are extremely beneficial. For example, all of those nagging and also aggravating delays in between different presenters are going to be meaningfully reduced when they do change over. However, that is not the only advantageous change that will occur: One other benefit that people will see includes the end to those long runs of cable that you can sometimes see running to and fro the projector. As a result, the places in which you can actually place these sorts of projectors are going to dramatically increase. For instance, you can now seriously think about placing this type of projector in a location that is not that easily accessible. An example of such a location would be the ceiling.

The suitability of a wireless projector server is quite multi-faceted, but one of the purposes that it is most suitable for is presentations of a multimedia flavor. This is primarily because of the fact that this type of tech device features a highly advanced design. As a result, it is this highly advanced design that makes it very suitable for both streaming media and audio.
