A Monster Irony?

Monster Cable has been the industry leader in high-quality HD cabling products for HDMI, component and other wired technologies for about as long as there's been a consumer HD industry. TWICE has the story of their founder's comments to a CES conference in Dubai about his company's efforts in the wireless A/V segment. It's an ultrawideband solution (UWB) that uses standard coaxial cable to get the signal between rooms, and it should be available for purchase this fall. 

Monster's partner in the wireless distribution biz is not yet publicly known, but San Diego-based startup PulseLink has a UWB product that utilizes a very similar networking model, which it displayed at The Cable Show last week.
