torrent_magloc_webTorrent SureConnect HDMI cables are perfect for those who want advanced performance for HDTVs, Blu-ray™, HD DVD, satellite systems and heavy gaming applications. Torrent offers a range of HDMI cables that bring immersive sound and clear picture quality to your home theater without bringing harmful substances into your home.

SureConnect HDMI cables outperform current low-end and high-end HDMI cables by offering innovative new features which help overcome the problems with interference, the troubles with longer HDMI cabling runs, and the well-documented issues with HDMI’s connector specification. 

Torrent’s patent-pending MagLoc™ technology improves the HDMI connection strength by 3x to 5x through the use of a magnet built into the connector, ensuring optimal connectivity while sparing the headache of trouble shooting the disconnection problem. MagLoc also features an auto-adjusting sleeve, allowing the connector to adapt to the wide ranging depths of HDMI ports across various devices while also protecting the connector tip from accidental damage. MagLoc is the only locking mechanism that is certified compliant with the HDMI 1.3C specification.

All Torrent cables support a minimum of 1080p resolution. Many SureConnect models also feature Torrent’s unique VeriFYI® connection confirmation light, Signal Armor® five layer shielding, and AmpliFire™ equalization processor. Plus SureConnect HDMI cables are constructed using the highest-grade, highest-performing materials including: 24K gold connectors, nitrogen injected gas dielectric, and the purest copper available.

Most people’s lives are in a dozen places at once – at work, when the kids come home from school, at the vacation home, on the road. But being in more than one place at a time was impossible – until now. Archerfish® is the next evolution in personal place-shifting technology. It lets you be in as many places as you need to, virtually, when it matters.

archerfishkit_web

Archerfish is the first and only mobile video intelligence (MVI) solution available today. Using a combination of video cameras, intelligent software and your own Archerfish SmartPortal™, it ‘watches’ your business or home for events you define as important: an expected delivery, for example, or an unwelcome intruder. If and only when these events occur, Archerfish finds you and tells you about it by sending a notification—along with video of the event—to your mobile device, email, or web portal. So you always know when something important happens – without watching video all day to find out. Traditional home-security and video-monitoring systems provide alerts. Only Archerfish provides intelligence.

Testimonials

“Press has been great. Our PR firm has attributed over 22 million impressions online at various tech sites since the CEA Line Shows..”

— Jono Pinksy, Viologht

” Our client ThinkEco did 82 press interviews and demos in two days! We can’t complain. The CEA Line Show in NYC is an excellent venue for start-ups like ThinkEco because it attracts top shelf press and business prospects who have more time to spend at the booth. People didn’t pass by, they all came over to talk. From start to finish, a professional, yet intimate, conference that netted big results –P.S. The food was excellent too!”

— Anne Steinbergm, Managing Director, Kitchen Public Relations for ThinkEco

“CEA Line Shows is a critical event for my teams at Engadget, Switched, TUAW, and Download Squad. In a tech editorial environment that is increasingly (and understandably) remote and mobile, in-person shows like these are a welcome rarity. Not only do they get my guys and girls out of their home offices, but they have also created innumerable hands-on and breaking stories chock-full of the video and images our readers have come to love and expect. The smaller size of CEA Line Shows means that my journalists can get their job done in a consumable environment as compared to the multi-day, exhausting conferences. Both have their place, but I am for one forever a fan of the smaller CEA Line Shows.”

— Joshua Fruhlinger, Editorial Director, AOL Tech.

“All in all, the CEA Line Shows was a big success, especially for an initial effort. I urge other manufacturers of home-theater products to sign up for next year — you’ll save loads of money compared to putting on an individual line show, and you’ll save journalists loads of time, a commodity in very short supply these days. It’s a win-win in an otherwise lose-lose economy.”

— UltimateAVmag.com Editor, Scott Wilkinson.
