David Watkins, Director, Connected Home Devices said: “Wi-Fi is now the key connectivity backbone for the distribution of digital audio and video content in the home and with the new 802.11ac standard, households will be armed with the necessary technology to support the ever growing number of IP video hungry devices.”

Eric Smith, Analyst, Connected Home Devices commented: “Wi-Fi offers consumers the convenience of  a straight out of the box connectivity solution for devices such as TVs and Blu-ray players, removing the hassle of hardwiring a device to the router or worse - running unsightly cables across the living room.”
