USB ready Replace Light Peak

Intel came up with new technology, named Peak Light. This device connects many devices with optical cable. Intel claims Light Peak will replace USB 3.0. This means that the needs of the port that is common to many gadgets will soon be replaced Peak Light technology.

Since a year ago, Light Peak Intel had been introduced to the public, but only at the end of 2010 it would begin producing Intel's newest technology. Kevin Kahn, Intel senior Intel hope many partners who are willing to help sales.

This technology raises the trend tendency optic cable without electricity. The benefit is said Justin Rattner, Intel chief Labs, of course, can support multiple protocols, diantaraya USB and serial ATA.

Peak Light can run on multiple protocols at the same time in more than one line, so all the data for separate cables can be run on a single cable Peak Light.

Kahn explained, the conflict between the two technologies, namely USB Light Peak and expected none. Peak Light would likely be a complement of USB 3.0, because the Light Peak make USB and other protocols can go together in one long cable with high speed in the future.

In addition, the Light Peak is also capable of transferring data with 10Gbps speeds, much faster to send a Blu-ray movie in half a minute. Light can be paired Peak on my laptop via USB 3.0 ports with additional components to receive optical signals. Light Peak also does not require port Light Peak, primarily for use in portable computers, added Kahn.
