It is claimed that the service will enable consumer electronics manufacturers to develop products that support various digital home connectivity use cases. Examples include: eliminating the need for unattractive audio/video HDMI cables to connect thin full-HD TV panels; watching DVR recordings anywhere in the home; and using gaming applications in any room regardless of the console’s location.

The combination of Celeno’s OptimizAIR Wi-Fi HD home networking technology with Cavium’s Super Low Latency H.264 codec technology is expected to meets the capacity, reach and latency requirements for whole-home full-HD uncompressed video content streaming.

The joint reference design is based on the Cavium PureVu Video Processor CNW3602 and the Celeno CL1300 HD-grade Wi-Fi System-on-Chip. It delivers compressed 480p/720p/1080p60 video over long distances while achieving sub-frame latency and perceptual lossless video quality.

Lior Weiss, vice president of marketing at Celeno, said: Celeno is delighted to partner with Cavium Networks. Together we can offer a wireless HDMI solution which provides full coverage of large homes using standards based H.264 and Wi-Fi. Cavium super low latency technology (SLL technology) enables 1080p60 perceptual lossless compression with extremely low bit rates.
