C2G adds Icecat to Attach progamme C
2G has announced that the newest C2G cable and connectivity products are now available through the Open Icecat catalogue, strengthening the C2G Attach programme that it runs with TD Maverick.
Trough the Open Icecat catalogue, C2G will provide timely data-sheets for existing and new product releases. Tis will be a quicker and more efficient way for resellers to get C2G information.
David Johnson, General Manager Maverick Europe, says the Icecat development will make it even easier to find the right cable for the right product. ‘Maverick is passionate about delivering simple-to-use, innovative sales tools and effective sales programmes designed to give our resellers the best opportunities, save time and improve the bottom line. C2G Attach is a great cross-selling initiative and with
Icecat, it’s even better and easier to find details on related cable and connectivity options at the click of a button.
Launched in June last year, the C2G Attach initiative aims to increase margins via cross selling opportunities. It recommends related cable products alongside high ticket items such as laptops, projectors, monitors and LFDs that are available on InTouch. Full data-sheets for all those product connections will now be found in the Icecat catalogue, along with marketing texts, technical specifications, images, long and short descriptions, multimedia objects and PDFs. Te product content is provided in CSV, XML and HTML formats.

Vision unveils HDMI-over-Power...

unning cables in old buildings can be difficult – especially where thick stone walls are involved. Vision’s new HDMI Powerline transmitter and receiver set gets you off the hook by running HDMI and IR signal over the existing
electrical power cables. It combines 500Mbps Powerline (or Homeplug) technology with H.264 compression and latency is virtually zero.
Te transmitter has a two-input HDMI switcher integrated with an HDMI output which can feed a local display. It comes with a remote so the switcher can be switched from the transmitter or receiver. For home users it has IR pass-through, so you can use the Sky or Blu-ray remote from the receiver location. Cabled IR receivers and emitters are included so everything can be hidden out of sight.

Vision has also developed the Techconnect HDMIW7 and W20, both of which use WHDI technology to transmit HDMI with no compression and no latency. Te HDMIW7 has a seven metre range and the transmitter comes in dongle form for plugging into laptops. Te HDMIW20 has a 20 metre range and comes with an integrated HDMI switcher. Its remote control can also be used at either end to switch input. Tis product can also pass through IR signal, allowing you to use a Sky remote control at the receiver. Te system passes that IR signal back to the transmitter and on to the Sky box.
