It extends computer peripherals using a radio transmission based on 802.11a, b, g, n, and Extreme USB technologies. The extender can also transmit information at up to 54 Mbps without the need for USB driver installations. The USB Extender is compatible with cross-platform computer systems, such as Mac OS X, Windows XP, Windows VISTA, and Linux. Price: $399. Gefen. 800-545-6900. www.gefen.com. PRODUCTION SWITCHER
The Opera 16 x 16 production switcher from Echolab is encased in a 16-input chassis that provides simultaneous outputs of 16 SDI, eight composite analog, and four component analog signal channels. Such flexibility allows for greater allocation of clean feeds and aux M/E outputs, according to the company. The new “floating” internal frame synchronization and storage options for each input eliminate the need for genlocked sources and external A-to-D converters, which reduces overall system costs. Price: N/A. Echolab. 978-715-1020. www.echolab.com. DATA STREAMING HUB
