Today’s connected vehicles are loaded with data. As those vehicles continue to become extensions of our connected lives, automakers are searching for new ways to process vast amounts of data quickly and efficiently. Intel estimates that the vehicle of the future will generate approximately 4,000 GB of data per day*, but is the current vehicle infrastructure ready to support information transfer of that magnitude?

The need for an automotive solution that provides high-speed connectivity with built-in cybersecurity is becoming more vital as our vehicles play more prominent roles in our ever-connected lives. That’s why the HDBaseT Alliance has established a Cybersecurity Working Group that will define the necessary specifications for a more secure car. 

Some people decide to spend a week in Hawaii, some choose Iceland, others go to Australia.  I went to Detroit.

Cybersecurity – we hear so much about this topic in the media today, but how can consumers feel safe from hackers while on the road?

According to U.S. Department of Transportation guidelines published in October 2016, the number one approach for mitigating risk of a cyberattack, is to use a layered approach, which should:

Since the invention of the telegraph, the concept of connectivity has captivated inventors. That concept has
certainly swept the automotive world by storm as man and machine have become more connected than ever. Here are three ways connectivity is driving the automotive industry:

When in the market for a new cable, it is important to remember that not all cables are created equal. With such a wealth of cable manufacturers and cable brands, how is one to differentiate between varying levels of quality, or to identify official cables that will keep your installation safe. You can start by learning about the origin of the cable. Who is the manufacturer? Is this manufacturer committed to quality protocols and standards? Does the manufacturer adhere to safety requirements?

I don’t know about you, but I for one am disappointed that I missed the action at ISE 2017. From what I’ve seen on social media, there were plenty of highpoints – from the latest solutions released by our members, to the best cocktails served in their honor. Read on for a summary of the best of ISE 2017:

No one likes a control freak (trust me, I know), but when we are talking about AV connectivity, if you have no control, you might as well call the Ghostbusters (am I dating myself, already?)

As you’ve probably noticed, HDBaseT has become a fixture in all of the major audiovisual shows, not only thanks to the Alliance’s efforts, but also to our members, who constantly introduce new products and solutions to the market, bringing all the benefits that HDBaseT has to offer.

You’ve heard the story before: how HDBaseT entered the AV market back in 2010, and has since then grown to become the standard for ultra-high-definition transmission for audio & video, Ethernet, controls, USB and even power, over a single long-distance cable.  With more than 150 Alliance members and thousands of products in the market, HDBaseT has conquered the AV world.
