Wisair announces a Wireless Universal Serial Bus (WUSB) reference design. The reference design includes a WUSB PC dongle and a WUSB hub, providing consumer electronics and peripheral manufacturers with the means to offer customers wireless connectivity to existing USB-enabled devices. Printers, scanners, remote hard disks, digital cameras and cellular devices are able to plug directly into the WUSB Hub and receive wireless connectivity to a PC. The WUSB Hub seamlessly replaces any wireline USB connection with a wireless connection. The Hub, which features two or four ports for connecting existing USB devices, can also be placed at one side of a room, where it can then send data wirelessly to the PC at speeds up to 480 Mb/s. In fact, the WUSB hub can be located more than 30 ft. from a WUSB dongle plugged into a PC. The 480 Mb/s WUSB Hub reference design is based on Wisair’s second generation WiMedia-based UWB chipset and has a small, form-factor integrated antenna. The reference design offers robust performance in noisy environments and coexistence with 802.11 a/b/g and Bluetooth devices.
