Netgear’s new wireless kit is designed for multimedia streaming, or more specifically, Blu-ray-quality HD streams. The Wireless -N HD Home Theater Kit comes with a pair of wireless streamers that’ll basically let you shoot your Blu-ray videos from your home entertainment system in the living room to the home network so you can get your HD content served in any other room in the house without the cable clutter, but with the bandwidth and speed that’s comparable (at least according to Netgear) to a wired connection.
It’s set up as a pair: the first unit plugs into an existing router or gateway, while the other unit plugs into your other home theater devices. This allows for a more flexible home network setup without having to worry about performance. In the simplest terms, this kit will let you slip in a Blu-ray movie into the player in the den, and enjoy Blu-ray HD quality videos in the bedroom upstairs.
The kit is listed to work with just about any Ethernet-ready device, including DVD players, HDTVs, gaming consoles, TiVo HD, Apple TV and Slingbox devices, digital IPTV set-top boxes, and Netgear’s own Digital Entertainer products, among others. It uses a 5GHz band that shouldn’t get in the way of your other wireless devices, and connects using an 802.11 n connection for faster wireless speeds.
The Home Theater Kit also allows for expansion through the use of more adapters, letting you connect additional devices (such as, say, a big-screen HDTV in the basement) wirelessly to an existing wireless network.
Pricing hasn’t been announced, but it’s expected out by the third quarter of 2010 in paired kits and single adapters.
