IOGEAR Adapters Bridge Connectivity Between HDMI and DVI Devices (24/9/2007)

CEDIA US Expo 2007

Home entertainment enthusiasts can now connect DVI and HDMI-enabled devices with IOGEAR's gold-plated HDMI to DVI-D Dual Link Adapters (GHDMIFDVIM, GHDMIMDVIF) to enhance their media centers. The products will be on display at the CEDIA EXPO, September 6-9, 2007 at booth # 3519.

As the HDMI market continues to grow, individuals look for ways to incorporate existing DVI source solutions with HDMI-enabled HDTVs. IOGEAR's new products simplify the process by enabling consumers to plug appropriate adapters in desired devices and link them with a cable, creating robust media centers.

IOGEAR is also introducing new two-, three- and five-meter HDMI cables (GHDMI1002, GHDMI1003, GHDMI1005) that connect A/V receivers, gaming consoles and set-top boxes to an HDTV. Each cable is HDMI version 1.3b CAT-2 compliant, which incorporates higher speeds, more than one billion colors and automatic accurate audio synching, providing a rich viewing experience.

"As prices of HDMI-enabled devices are continuing to drop, their integration in consumers' living rooms is growing rapidly," said Miranda Su, VP of marketing and sales at IOGEAR. "With the new additions to our A/V family of products, IOGEAR further helps users integrate their current media-center solutions with new HDMI products, creating a more enjoyable home entertainment environment."

The new cables and adapters accompany IOGEAR's two- and four-port HDMI automatic switches, which allow users to link multiple electronics to one input on an HDTV. The switches alternate automatically when the individual selects the desired device by powering it on, eliminating the need for a dedicated switch remote.

IOGEAR's gold-plated HDMI to DVI-D Dual Link Adapters are priced at $19.95 each (MSRP). The cables are priced at $29.95, $39.95 and $49.95 (MSRP). The products are available immediately from all major catalog and online resellers, as well as select retail outlets, and come with IOGEAR's standard 3-year warranty on the switchers, and a lifetime warranty on the cables and adapters.
