Hitachi Partners With Tzero, Enabling Wireless HD Video For Hitachi UT Series

Hitachi will use Tzero's ultra wideband technology to enable wireless HD video with its upcoming ultra thin (UT) HDTV series. Tzero's technology will eliminate cables but still allow HItachi's UT HDTV's to receive wireless signals from any HDMI-equipped audio or video component. The wireless connection features transmission speeds of up to 480 megabits per second (Mbps) and is based on standards by the WiMedia Alliance making it compatible with any WiMedia device.

Hitachi said that after combing the market for a wireless solution, "only Tzero's UWB implementation could provide the video quality and performance that is required for our demanding UT customer base." Unfortunately, the Hitachi UT Series is only available in Japan.
