TransferJet™ Roadmap

What is TransferJet™?

TransferJet™ is a cable-less data transfer technology featuring ease of use, safe communication and ultra fast data transfer. The purpose of TransferJet™ is data downloading, viewing, sharing and synchronisation amongst the vast community of digital equipment. This can be done in the home, in the car, in the office or in public places.

Simple Operation

Just touching two devices
Intuitive operation: two devices are brought into physical contact so that files are transferred automatically. No need for complex setup, device pairing or the use of access points. Point-to-point connectivity with no host/target relationship. Data transfer can take place between mobile phones and stationary PCs, as well as between two mobile/handheld devices.

TransferJet™ - Easy and Secure

A short transmission distance means user can specify and restrict which other devices can be connected. Short transmission distance minimizes leakage of data, without
the need for complex security measures or setup procedures. Users can register their electronic products to enable TransferJetT™ to recognize and connect to specific devices only, preventing unintended unauthorized access.

TransferJet™ - Ultra High Speed Data Transfer

Physical layer transmission rate is 560 Mbps, maximum data throughput is 375 Mbps. Just a few seconds needed to transfer a one-hour TV program (e.g., in MPEG4, 170 MB). Capable of adjusting the appropriate data transmission rate according to the quality of the wireless medium. Even if conditions deteriorate, TransferJetT™ can maintain the highest possible wireless link by automatically adjusting the data transmission rate. As TransferJet™ is a close proximity wireless system that radiates very low-power radio waves, it causes virtually no interference to other wireless systems, and there is no impact on performance (no interference) even if multiple users simultaneously use TransferJet™ in nearby areas.
