by Intel’s high speed Thunderbolt interconnect technology, found primarily on Apple’s side of the computing fence, enjoyed a big week at the National Association of Broadcasters Show in Las Vegas. As the push for higher-resolution video continues to grow, so do the file sizes, making the need for faster sustainable throughput ever greater.
Which is why Intel chose NAB—the annual get-together for video pros with high-end equipment demands—to announce that the next generation of Thunderbolt is coming. It will double throughput from today’s 10Gb per second to 20Gb per second.
A faster Thunderbolt is obviously big news for the peripheral-connection technology that made its debut two years ago. But it wasn’t the only Thunderbolt-centric news to come out of NAB 2013. Here’s a round-up of other product announcements coming out of Las Vegas—most of which centering around storage—that you may have missed.
