yeah I didn't hear the beep oh It beeped did it it says record so it does okay
well let's just let's just get started I'll cut that off okay all right so I'm
here in the trend net suite at CES 2011 and they've got a bunch of really cool
networking stuff on display so I want to start with their 450 megabit per second
products so why don't we start on the left and move our way over to the right
so most of these products are actually brand new and you can see the ones that
are flagged with a CES launch badge actually the ones that are launching
here at CES so this is pretty cool this is actually a 450 megabit pers second
version of their gaming adapter so that allows you to have a high-speed wireless
connection to not only a uh not only a
gaming console but really anything that needs a network connection where you
can't actually run a dedicated wire so
here we have a concurrent dual band 450
mbit per second router you can see that actually you're going to see over the
next little bit here that most most of Tren Net's new products are using a very
Sleek uh glossy black sexy shell design
and this is a a a far cry from the sort
of blue uh that we used to see sort of 2 three years ago so it's coming a long
way in terms of the industrial design which is fairly obvious here we've got a
450 mbit per second access point this one's not new and uh also this guy right
here is not new this was their their 450
megabit per second router they were first to Market with a 450 megabit per
second router so this product was a little bit ahead of its time you can
actually buy it at NC it's already in stock so there's nothing that new or
announc about this one this is another thing that's not new this has been a
focus for trenet over the last actually at CES last year they were talking a lot
about green switches and they've got a great demo here that actually
demonstrates we've got the green switch which is right here with the green
stripe on it and this is the blue I was talking about they've got one of their
old switches and you can see the power consumption is up to 70% less with a
green switch versus with their older non
power saving switches and not only that but now we've actually got green
versions and you can see the green whoops I'm breaking everything you can
see the green stripe here and the green branding on the front of this but this
is actually a wireless end home router so we're able to reduce power
consumption by about half with a wireless end router vers with a less end
green router versus with a wireless end non power saving
router and trenet obviously not all about switches and routers we've got
their IP cameras so we've got a few products here that are new some that
aren't new and some that are like unne because they're not even released yet so
let's check out this one first we've got their TVP 612 series of cameras and I
want to show you guys exactly how smooth the recording is on this particular
camera has a 10x optical zoom it pans
330° side to side and tilts 115° up and down which is pretty
outstanding this is a wireless end camera although it is plugged in via
Ethernet right now but if you just want to point the camera at that screen right
there I'll dance a little J and show you
guys how smooth the recording is on this camera now there's also a power over
Ethernet version of it which is pretty much the same thing except PoE instead
of wireless and moving down we have some cameras here that are not quite as new
such as the TVP 512 W which I do remember from last year at CES now they
have some new wireless end cameras coming as well so these are more
consumer oriented models you can see these ones don't feature uh remote
adjustment of where they're pointed at although we do have infrared models as
well as some higher-end ones that do feature side to side as well as tilt
functionality and infrared Lighting on them as well trenet is also taking
Powerline Ethernet very very seriously and they've launched recently their 500
megabit per second Powerline AV Adapter look here's a box that's what it looks
like so 500 megabit per second is a first on the market and a first for
Trend net in real world you're probably looking at about 200 megabytes per
second and or 200 megabit per second and change but the reality of it is most
Powerline adapters are not going to get anywhere near their rated thorough put
it's a limitation of the tech technology and really that speed is more than
adequate for HD streaming and even file transfers I've criticized Powerline a
lot in the past for having great latency
so it's great for gaming but for not having great thorough put well now you
can actually transfer large files over it as well so moving along this
way we finally got some more consumer products we have a few 3G Wireless end
routers so these are great if you want to uh plug in for example a T-Mobile
Stick and then share your connection with other people I mean 3G is not that
fast so you're probably looking at a limitation of sort of three or four
people using it at a time but it could be handy if you're traveling like with
one other person and you guys want to share an internet connection in your room and last but not least we have the
consumer level Wireless stuff so we've got a few Wireless end home routers a
300 megabit per second concurrent dual band router this is sort of less
exciting and this is what we find at the back of the suite as opposed to the
front of the suite where we found all the 400 megabit per second stuff but
this is still good too we've also got a few little cool uh adapters so so this
one is ultra compact this one is ultra
compact so these are both uh Wireless I
believe these are both Wireless end yeah these are both Wireless end and then
finally we have the world's smallest so this is a I don't know a micro compact
whatever they want to call it it's less than the size of an actual USB plugin so
that's pretty cool as well and oh this one this one I'm really excited about so
this is the wireless end game G adapter remember I showed you guys the 450
megabit pers second version over at the front of the suite so this is the older
one and this one's going to be coming down to a lower price point remember it
works with Wii Xbox and Playstation but also pretty much anything else that
needs a network connection but this this is the one that's really exciting this
is a cool product so this has a built-in switch okay and it is also a wireless
end Media Bridge so there are similar products on the market for things like
power line where you have multiple ports on one side side and then you have a
power line connection running maybe to your main router but this one actually
runs off of Wireless N so this is really cool so what trend it has to say for
themselves here is that it works with network enabled Blu-ray players televisions DVRs game consoles it'll
work with computers pretty much anything that needs a connection to your network
and is not convenient to access via a wired connection or via power line so
