[citation][nom]Haserath[/nom]This will not travel well at all. Tv broadcasts only need to be in the Mhz range to provide enough bandwidth.I'd rather have less Ghz for more range. The router I have barely gets my entire house with it's 2.4ghz band, this is going to not even get halfway across through all the walls this house has.[/citation]
Hmm, I don't really know much about this tech, but from the article's text it seems it's more for high-bandwidth, close-range applications. Like Making sure your TV, STB, BR player and Media player (all of which usually sit pretty close to each other anyway) can get along with themselves without any cables (other than the mains one, that is), and also with your Internet gateway (which in small homes is just around the corner from everything else and doesn't really need Gb speeds anyway).
The same thing applies to PC and monitors, they are usually in close range of each other. They might be farther away from the router, but unless you want/need high-speed access to the NAS on the other side of the house, regular 2.4GHz/5GHz wireless might do the trick. OR, since apparently this lends itself to a mesh architecture (the text hints it's point-to-point), you might only need a couple of (hopefully cheap) mesh repeaters here and there to boost the signal to farther away spots.
Oh, and this doesn't seem a tech for input devices: this is high-bandwidth, mice, keyboards and remotes can still stick to 2.4Ghz, IMHO.
Now, I hope there's a simple way to handle video links... I'd hate it if my fast-paced FPS game was interrupted by someone in the next room pressing "play" on the BR player. Both the game being cut and the certain ensuing "Hey, what's wrong with the BR player?" would most likely p*** me off. 1-to-1 links with "in-use" locks only (except for transparent routing to other devices if needes, of course), please!
Cheers.
