HP Ships Wi-Fi Equipped HDTV

Eliza Villarino — Fri, 20 Oct 2006 08:31:00 +0000

HP unveiled a $2,199 high-definition LCD TV that has built-in 802.11 a/b/g Wi-Fi radio and standard Ethernet network connections. The new SLC3760N 37-inch MediaSmart high-definition LCD TV can link up with PCs running HP’s proprietary software. But because the display only has WiFi radio and not a router, users must secure another Wi-Fi connected device so it can access pre-recorded content. The TV is teeming with AV ports including an optical audio plus HDMI out to enable direct connection to stereos and home theater receivers.

Eliza Villarino — Wed, 17 May 2006 04:13:00 +0000

Hewlett-Packard is introducing a Wi-Fi switch module for its ProCurve 5300 edge switch. The company believes its Wireless Edge Services Module (WESM) is more tightly integrated than the Wi-Fi Services Module (WISM) from rival Cisco. HP plans to sell WESM, which will initially include support for 12 access points or “Radio Ports”, for 3,699 euros and will charge another 2,959 euros for an additional 24 access points with software keys. It expects its ProCurve 5300 edge switch to hold a pair of the modules, thus providing support for 72 access points and therefore accommodating 1,000 users.
