Press Release Body = Schijndel, The Netherlands - September 15, 2006 -Smartwi.eu, a former New Venture participant, today presented wireless patent pending SW Plus products, a wireless Smartcard system, capable of splitting a subscription smartcard to watch TV in every room of your house. This means your TV is no longer confined to your living room. The SW Plus solution incorporates patent pending technology within a stand alone USB smartcard server and up to 5 wireless smartcards to receive live the original smartcard signal anywhere in a household.
\"This unique product demonstrates the seamless fusion of traditional TV and wireless IT technology,\" said Mark Verhulst, senior vice president of marketing. \"It\'s a location free TV solution that\'s perfect for those tired of paying monthly fees, routing coax cable or using TV transmitters. Wireless deployment eliminates within the home these prohibitive cost.\"
The SW Plus USB server allows you to securely split smartcards between multiple receivers at home. Just plug & play SmartWi Plus and your second tv receiver is running in minutes. The products are designed to hide the complexities of setting up wireless communication lines and at the same time giving you ease of use. The SW Plus hardware development team succeeded to provide state-of-the-art wireless smart card functionality. The wireless smartcard acts exactly the same as the original smartcard without comprimises. The small and custom designed casing for the USB server is very robust and of very high quality. All products are stable and simple, computer experience is not required as it is a stand alone product, already programmed for regular use and require zero maintenance. The flash based firmware is upgradable to make sure future subscription smartcards will be supported and features can be added without the need for new hardware. The SmartWi Plus software is often updated and will automatically upgrade the firmware as needed.
Mark Verhulst adds, "Previously the subscription costs were too prohibitive to receive TV in every room of your house. Other options, like using TV transmitters, or pulling wire by technicians throughout a home including spending the time necessary for appliance service installations were also expensive, provides just 1 TV channel for the complete house and provide poor broadband quality due to signal loss. The wire-free SW Plus system removes all these problems."
The innovative system uses advanced dual band wireless transmission technology delivering the most stable wireless performance. It employs ISO standards for a wide selection of transmission channels and switches the channel for minimized interference when used up to 50 feet from the base station. It is a highly efficient wireless protocol with smart flow control and error correction, that is able to deliver independent live channels throughout a residence with concrete walls in broadcast quality. SW Plus provides customers with an easy solution for digital television on all television sets at home. There is no need for additional wiring to enjoy all of digital television's features on all television sets. The SW Plus USB servers delivers the original smartcard signal throughout a home up to four stories high. The signal is being used by a wireless smartcard to access broadcast content on any television set in the house. Customers can now decide what they want to watch, at what time they want to watch it and on which television set they want to watch it with just 1 subscription smartcard. The SW Plus system will be available in the fourth quarter of 2006. The cost of owning a SW Plus system will be lower than currently available solutions in the market. Customers will save every month on their subscription fees as the SW Plus system works with a single smartcard and a single subscription for viewing all subscribed channels on multiple televisions.
