He made his debut today of Intel technology Thunderbolt

Intel today announced the availability of Thunderbolt, a new technology for high-speed connection to PC over a single cable that combines high-speed data transfer and display HD (high definition). Operating at 10 Gbps, the Thunderbolt is technology that can transfer an entire HD movie in less than 30 seconds.

This technology developed by Intel is on the market thanks to a technical collaboration with Apple, and is available for the first time in the new line of MacBook Pro notebook computer vision technology behind the Thunderbolt (formerly known as queuing "Light Peak" ) is to transfer media content faster, easier connections between devices and to create new ways to build and use the PC.

The combination of HD video and data connections at high speed in a single cable is essential to implement this vision. Thunderbolt technology achieves these results through two communication methods, or protocols: PCI Express to transfer data to the display and DisplayPort. PCI Express has the flexibility to connect virtually any device, and DisplayPort enables higher display resolutions of 1080 pixels and up to eight audio channels simultaneously.

Thunderbolt technology is compatible with the display and DisplayPort cards on the market. All the devices share a common connector Thunderbolt technology and allow users to simply plug in their devices waterfall, connecting via electrical or optical cables, one after another. Thunderbolt technology is designed to meet the needs of those who create inmodo intensive HD multimedia content.

For example, graphics and video are free to exercise their creativity by using capture devices / audio mixing and video-bandwidth and low latency that is get a very accurate synchronization for real-time processing. At 10 Gbps, large multimedia files vengonotrasferiti faster, with less waiting time before you can watch and edit videos.

You can quickly backup and restore data, reducing the waiting time for content archiving. For laptop users, it means having a single connector in the ultra-thin notebook that extends the capabilities of high-speed multimedia and HD display at home or in office. Thunderbolt technology is complementary to other technologies I / O that Intel will continue to support.

"The management of HD multimedia content is one of the most challenging tasks that users perform with their PCs," said Mooly Eden, general manager of PC Client Groupdi Intel, which added: "With Thunderbolt, Intel offers an innovative technology to help iprofessionisti and consumers to work more quickly and easily through their collections exclusive safety, multimedia, music and movie HD.

We started from the vision of a trasferimentosemplice and fast content between PCs and devices, and we turned it into reality. "" We are excited to partner with Intel to offer the revolutionary technology Thunderbolt Mac users, "said Bob Mansfield, Senior Vice President Mac Hardware Engineering Group Apple, adding that "with ultra-fast transfer rate, support perdisplay high resolution and compatibility with the technologies of existing I / O, Thunderboltrappresenta a revolution for the industry and we believe that developers will be able diapprezzarla.

Technology Thunderbolt is powered by the Intel chip and uses a smaller connector suited for portable devices that are integrated into products that support this technology. Many innovative companies have already announced products based sutecnologia Thunderbolt or plan to support it soon.

Among these Aja, Apogee, Avid, Blackmagic, LaCie, Western Digital Promise. Intel is working with the industry on a wide range of technology-enabled Thunderbolt including computers, displays, storage devices, audio / video, photo and video cameras, docking stations and others.
