Executive Overview

Ever want to connect an HDTV or projector with HDMI to your laptop or computer? No? Well use your imagination, because Atlona Technologies deployed its new USB to HDMI adaptor, dubbed the AT-HDPiX. This new solution is designed to add a HDMI port to any computer (Mac or PC) and has almost limitless applications in both consumer and commercial environments. All you need is an available USB 2.0 port (and an external power supply is not needed).

From commercial applications with digital signage to home theater, the HDPiX provides a simple solution for viewing content from a computer on any HDTV. Setup is as simple as plug and play and the system seems to work both flawlessly and without any hangups - though we'd like to see some more endurance benchmark testing with HD content sources. You can connect up to 6 AT-HDPiX devices to a PC and up to 4 to a Mac.
