The USB Implementers Forum is nearing the last stages of development for the USB 3.5 standard, which means that companies with a possible stake in the technology are moving too. Case in point, ASMedia has already put together a USB 3.5 host controller. Or at least set up the stage to have one ready by the...

The best-made cables work at 40 Gb at most, and have relatively low latencies.
True, the latencies are actually quite high compared to copper wires, and whatever other alternatives were tried ... [read more >>] Ease of use has always been one of the long-term goals of information technology, and progress is regularly being achieved. There is still room for improvement though, which is what Fujitsu has to offer.
Fujitsu has come up with a way to send files to and from a mobile device just by capturing a video of ...

[read more >>] With all the hype surrounding the USB 3.0 interface, it was only a matter of time before the 'standard' speed SuperSpeed storage units increased, and it appears that Renesas Electronics is ready to push the interface forward.The SuperSpeed USB 3.0 standard is one that many flash drives, solid sta... [read more >>] The VGA interface has been around for ages, but it seems that the most important players in the graphics and display industry have pretty much had it with the already obsolete video connector, planning to have it completely killed by 2015.
Frankly speaking, we're quite surprised that certain portabl... [read more >>] If there is an aspect of consumer electronics that has evolved substantially over the past several years, it is web connectivity. Most, if not all, contemporary handsets, not to mention all PCs, can connect to the Internet, either through cables or via wireless, or both. In the wake of this progress, howev... [read more >>] When it comes to universal connectivity, USB 3.0 is on the top of the popularity polls, with its speed of 5Gbps that lets any data transfer be accomplished ten times faster than it would be possible on USB 2.0 ports. Unfortunately, this new standard hasn't seen the widespread adoption it could have, mo... [read more >>] We must admit that when we first heard “cable management system” and “style” in the same sentence we raised an eyebrow, to say the least; and that's because cable management systems are pure euphemisms that try to ease up the harsh reality in most offices and homes: unruly cable...
