With the Nyrius Orion Prime Wireless USB-C to HDMI Video Transmitter & Receiver, you don’t need a cable to connect your MacBook, iPad or iPhone to your TV. It can send video up to 150 feet, offers HD resolution, and doesn’t require a Wi-Fi network.
The product launched on Monday.
Nyrius Orion Prime Wireless USB-C to HDMI Video Transmitter & Receiver
A Mac, iPad or iPhone can be easily used to send films, TV shows and other video to a large screen or projector with a cable connection. The same goes for presentations. The cable limits the distance between the computer and TV though, and it adds clutter.
With the Nyrius Orion Prime Wireless USB-C to HDMI Video Transmitter & Receiver, the cable isn’t necessary. Plug one part into the USB-C port on your computer and the other into the TV’s HDMI port to make a wireless connection between them.
“By eliminating the limitations of traditional cables, such as restricted length and clutter, users can enjoy the same high-quality audio and video output as HDMI cables, with the added benefit of wireless transmission,” said Tallouli Mohamed, Product Manager at Nyrius.
A family can watch Netflix or Prime Video in 1080p on a large screen with no Apple TV or Roku needed. Or a salesperson can do a presentation with minimal dependence on the potential client’s AV equipment.
The Orion Prime transmitter and receiver communicate directly, so no Wi-Fi network is needed. They operate up to 50 feet apart through walls, floors, and ceilings, and up to 150 feet apart in clear line-of-sight environments.
