  • Dual-channel, each 10 Gbps
  • Bi-directional, equally fast in both directions
  • Dual protocol, PCI Express for hard disks and DisplayPort for monitors
  • Daisy-chain-able, supports up to six devices per channel
  • Woks with both copper and fiber cabling, fiber allows longer cable runs
  • Low latency, very, VERY short delays in transferring signals
  • Delivers up to 10 watts of power over copper wiring, but not fiber, to support bus-powered devices. (Though this is not enough for most hard disks)

I’m seeing new intel ads pop up via email / chat / internets.

Tagline = Sponsors of Tomorrow.

Upon seeing this ad, I was pretty excited around the creative [marketing level genius]… but searching further brought up this piece of crap video [marketing level NOT genius].

Sorry intel – very close, but no ‘wireless power’ on this campaign.
