Westinghouse Digital's complete lineup of professional displays will be showcased at Booth #N7241 at InfoComm 2008, June 18-20 at the Las Convention Center.

The Westinghouse 42" P4210FW and 47" P4710FW feature fully integrated CWave® UWB Wireless HDMI technology for real-time wireless streaming of high quality audio and video content from entertainment source devices such as a DVR, Blu-ray DVD player, live cable or a satellite feed. Video data is encoded using the JPEG2000 video codec, the same codec used by movie theaters for "Digital Cinema," providing a secure high quality HD experience.

The P4210FW and the P4710FW feature a 1920 x 1080 resolution, the highest standard available for HD digital video display, and 1080Pure™ for a true 1080p signal out of all HD connectors. The full suite of connectors includes HDMI, DVI, YPbPr, VGA, Composite/ S-Video. The sets offer Westinghouse Digital's proprietary SpineDesign™ construction for easy cable management and convenient media box access, and Autosource™ technology, which automatically turns the TV on and adjusts it when an external source is detected. Additionally, the wireless HDMI LCD HDTVs offer i.e. bi directional RS-232C communication; i.e. discrete RS-232 commands; built-in speakers; and a DPMS timer for convenient on/off applications that lower power consumption.
