FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Provides superior quality picture, reliable performance, and best range available
(Indianapolis, IN) — September 10, 2004 — The PureAV RemoteTV by Belkin lets you view video and listen to music from one room to another wirelessly. Combining proprietary technology (Air5) in the 5GHz frequency range and component-video connectivity, the RemoteTV offers the best range available without interruptions at up to 350 feet and superior audio video quality. The device will begin shipping on October 1, 2004 in North America.
PureAV RemoteTV (AV55000) — MSRP $499.99
Because it utilizes proprietary wireless technology that reduces interference and delivers up to 40Mbps of bandwidth through the 5GHz frequency range, the RemoteTV far exceeds the performance of the average wireless audio video sender. The RemoteTV is the first audio video sender to incorporate a component-video connectivity option for obtaining optimal resolution. Its Remote Control Extender lets you use an existing remote to control your video source in the other room, saving you the hassle of walking back and forth, and the expense of purchasing a separate remote.
The RemoteTV consists of two primary pieces, the PureAV RemoteTV Transmitter and the PureAV RemoteTV Receiver. The Transmitter sends audio and video from a source component–such as a cable box, satellite receiver, digital video recorder, DVD/CD player, or AV receiver–to the RemoteTV Receiver, which is connected to a TV, LCD, or plasma display in a separate location.
