Wireless Gigabit Network Specification Completed
 

Wireless Gigabit Alliance (WiGig), the organization advancing the adoption and widespread use of 60GHz wireless technology worldwide, on Thursday announced the completion of its unified wireless specification. The WiGig spec enables high performance wireless display and audio and provides data transfer rates more than 10 times faster than today’s wireless LANs, while supporting backward compatibility with existing Wi-Fi devices.

“When we launched the WiGig Alliance in May ‘09, we announced our plan to complete the industry’s first unified 60GHz specification by Q4 2009, and we are proud to deliver on this promise to the industry. We are rapidly paving the way for the introduction of the next generation of high-performance wireless products – PCs, mobile handsets, TVs and displays, Blu-ray disc players, digital cameras and many more,” said Dr. Ali Sadri, president and chairman of the Wireless Gigabit Alliance.
