Plextor today announced the PX-PA15AW Wireless Projector Adapter, enabling users to broadcast Microsoft PowerPoint presentations using WLAN technology.

The PX-PA15AW Wireless Projector Adapter utilizes Ethernet or Wireless LAN (WLAN) technology to receive, in real time, screen-captured images, graphics, and image content broadcast from most Wi-Fi enabled computers. Users can wirelessly share oversized image files, even PowerPoint files with embedded animation. High-performance algorithms detect the differential regions of the screen, allowing the system to present content at 15 frames-per-second on average for Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11a/b/g connectivity.

"Plextor's innovative Wireless Projector Adapter means no more swapping VGA cables between presenters -- a common problem for any team presentation," said Michael Arbisi, Vice President, Channel Sales for Plextor. "The PX-PA15AW also fits neatly into our growing portfolio of peripheral products for enterprise customers, which includes data storage and digital media devices. Both sales distributors and corporate customers have expressed interest in the wireless projector adapter because of its synergy with other Plextor products."

Easy to Set Up and Use

Ideal for educational and corporate presentations, Plextor's PX-PA15AW Wireless Projector Adapter is easy to set-up, enabling users to configure a wireless environment in just a few steps. Users can easily search available receiver adapters via the channel scanning method and communication protocol without worrying about wireless parameters and settings.

To ensure transmission security, the Plextor PX-PA15AW provides standard WEP encryption/decryption, enabling users to set their own passwords and prevent unauthorized access to the wireless network.
