The TruLink 1-Port 60 GHz WirelessHD Kit enables high definition wireless transmission between your television and your HDMI components. You can have full HD 1080p signal from your computer, Blu-ray player, set-top box, gaming console or other HDMI device to your HDMI-enabled television. The 60 GHz transmission capability means greater flexibility in your home theater setup by allowing you to place the in-room components up to 33 feet apart.
The TruLink kit, which includes the wireless transmitter and wireless receiver, is nice because you don’t have to wire and cable it. By offering true uncompressed audio/video transmission, the TruLink WirelessHD kit is a quick, convenient and reliable cable replacement. This plug-and-play solution requires no software, no drivers and no setup. Simply connect the receiver with the HDMI component and instantly transmit content to your television.
