Have you ever tried to install a screen at a specific location and had to go through the hassle of installing a power point and video cables? Apparently you will no longer run into this issue in the next few years as manufacturers will be releasing wireless monitors that charges the power and also transmit video using wireless technology.

There are many benefits in using this technology and some of these are:

• Reduce installation costs for both power and video cabling – no more cables dangling from the screen
• Ability to install screen in any given location and have the freedom to change the location

Yes it’s that easy!!!
