Cisco next week will demonstrate new and existing products designed to highlight "visual networking" at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas.
Visual networking combines streaming digital video technology and social networking applications. The new products are intended to address the growing Internet video phenomenon, which Cisco says accounts for 40% of Internet traffic, and present it via TV, PC and mobile phone.
Visual networking enables video content to be created, customized, stored and delivered on a wire-to-wireless network, according to Cisco.
“[People] don’t want to wait for download; they want it to work like TV works,” says Ken Wirt, Cisco’s vice president of consumer marketing. Cisco’s consumer business includes its Linksys line of home networking products, its Scientific-Atlanta set-top boxes, and media and content delivery systems.
“They want to be able to find something, click on it and have it start, and they want it to be in really high quality.”
To address that, Cisco will be unveiling several set-top box and IP gateway products and enhancements at CES, Wirt says. The
products will feature capabilities such as being able to move video around the home wirelessly, including high-definition
signals, and storing various forms of content from various sources.
Among the new and existing products Cisco will highlight at CES are:
* Next-generation cable set-top boxes and OpenCable applications - The set-top boxes are also designed to stream digital video
content through the entire home and offer consumers added storage for storing music, movies, programs and photos. They also
feature interactive guide capabilities and search functions.
* IP set-top boxes and middleware – Cisco’s IP set-top boxes are designed to deliver data, voice and video to many screens such as a television, PC, game station or mobile phone.
* Linksys media center extenders – These work with PCs from most major manufacturers to stream video, including home video, live TV and movies, plus music and photos to other devices in the home.
