FREMONT,
Calif. – April 24, 2006
- Plextor® Corp., a leading developer and manufacturer
of high-performance digital media equipment, today announced
the PX-PA15AW Wireless Projector Adapter. The new device
uses wireless technology to enable users to broadcast
Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentations from most
Wi-Fi enabled computers to a VGA/XVGA projector incorporating
the adapter.
The
PX-PA15AW Wireless Projector Adapter utilizes Ethernet
or Wireless LAN (WLAN) technology to receive, in real
time, screen-captured images, graphics, and image content
broadcast from most Wi-Fi enabled computers. Users can
wirelessly share oversized image files, even PowerPoint
files with embedded animation. High-performance algorithms
detect the differential regions of the screen, allowing
the system to present content at 15 frames-per-second
on average for Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11a/b/g connectivity.
“Plextor’s
innovative Wireless Projector Adapter means no more
swapping VGA cables between presenters – a common
problem for any team presentation,” said Michael
Arbisi, Vice President, Channel Sales for Plextor. “The
PX-PA15AW also fits neatly into our growing portfolio
of peripheral products for enterprise customers, which
includes data storage and digital media devices. Both
sales distributors and corporate customers have expressed
interest in the wireless projector adapter because of
its synergy with other Plextor products.”
Easy
to Set Up and Use
Ideal for educational and corporate presentations, Plextor’s
PX-PA15AW Wireless Projector Adapter is easy to set-up,
enabling users to configure a wireless environment in
just a few steps. Users can easily search available
receiver adapters via the channel scanning method and
communication protocol without worrying about wireless
parameters and settings.
To
ensure transmission security, the Plextor PX-PA15AW
provides standard WEP encryption/decryption, enabling
users to set their own passwords and prevent unauthorized
access to the wireless network.
Pricing
and Availability
The Plextor PX-PA15AW Wireless Projector Adapter begins
shipping to distributors in North and South America in
May 2006, with a Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price
(MSRP) of $289.00 USD. All retail packages include one-year
