Consumer Electronics Show (CES) January 8-11, 2009 Jungo,
a leading provider of connectivity software solutions and Wisair,
a leading provider of single-chip based Wireless USB solutions, today
announced the availability of an end-to-end Wireless USB solution for
Linux-based and embedded operating systems used in CE devices. By
combining Jungo’s USBware™
protocol software stack with Wisair’s single chip based Wireless
USB reference designs, the new offering enables OEMs to embed
Wireless USB into non-Windows™ CE devices such as set-top boxes, TV
sets, smart phones and DVRs. This means more options for consumers to
connect external devices, including storage units, with a higher
throughput delivered.
Jungo’s USBware™ offers a complete, high quality embedded Wireless USB
software protocol stack with a small footprint that allows CE device
OEMs to easily incorporate standard USB connectivity into their designs.
USBware™ is already deployed by several Tier 1 hardware OEMs in the
market and enables complete compatibility with legacy wired USB products.
Wisair's WSR601 single chip CMOS (Complimentary Metal Oxide
Semiconductor) enables Wireless USB connectivity with the best
combination of performance, power consumption and cost. The chip,
already in mass production, is incorporated in a variety of reference
designs, such as the Wireless USB Adapter Set, which is offered by Cables
Unlimited in the US and Olidata
in Europe.
