Slingbox PRO-HD™

Watching live television wherever you go is completely possible today with the award-winning gadget known as Slingbox. 

 

This breakthrough device enables you to watch and control your living room television programming from anywhere by turning your Internet-connected laptop, desktop, PDA, or SmartPhone into a personal television.

 

Slingbox is one of the hottest pieces of technology ever to come to market and here is the latest addition to the Sling family – Slingbox PRO-HD.

 

The Slingbox PRO-HD is newest member of the Slingbox family and is in essence – The ULTIMATE SLINGBOX.  Slingbox PRO-HD will be the first Slingbox and for that matter the first “placeshifting” device that will be able to stream HD programming in TRUE HD. This is important because previous Slingbox products supported an HD component input (PRO and SOLO), but down converted the high definition source to standard definition resolution which was then transmitted around the home to a PC or Mac or outside of the home to a remote device. While a customer had access to all of his/her high definition programming, legacy Slingboxes did not stream TRUE HD either around the home or to a remote computer. This is all changed with Slingbox PRO-HD.  For existing Slingbox customers, who know and love the product and understand the value of placeshifting, Slingbox PRO-HD represents a huge upgrade over all previous Slingboxes. What’s really exciting, with a fast enough broadband internet connection (upload speeds of 1.5 to 2.0 Mbps), Slingbox PRO-HD customers can now stream HD programming outside of the home to a remote computer or laptop.

 

Slingbox PRO-HD is the perfect companion for your HD DVR, cable box, satellite receiver or DVD player. With the ability to watch and control your favorite TV source, the Slingbox SOLO ensures that you can enjoy your HD TV entertainment – anywhere. With a Slingbox PRO-HD, you will never be separated from your favorite TV shows or sports events again. All with NO MONTHLY FEES.


Slingbox PRO-HD allows three distinct audio video sources for all of your home theatre devices.

 

You can connect one high definition (HD) device using component cables for video and even get 5.1 channel surround sound with the new digital audio input. Perfect for your cable or satellite HD set top box.

 

One standard definition (SD) device using s video or composite video and audio cables – like a DVD player, Media center or even a surveillance camera.

 

And with the built-in ATSC/NTSC Tuner, you can now take all of the new HD over the air programming with you.  Plus with QAM support, even your digital cable channels are accessible without the need for a cable box or cable card.

 

Something this cool has got to be hard to set up, right? Not at all!  Slingbox PRO-HD is easy to use and set up.  Simply plug your appropriate video sources to the Slingbox, connect the Slingbox to your broadband Internet router, install the SlingPlayer software on your PC and the automatic device discovery and a setup wizard will walk you through the process step-by-step. With over 5000 devices supported, you can go from zero to Slinging fairly quickly.

 

If your TV isn’t near your Internet Connection, No Problem.  The SlingLink Turbo is a simple plug and play solution that utilizes your existing electrical wiring to extend your internet connection in another location all using your power outlets on the wall.


The Slingbox PRO-HD will also be released with NEW SlingPlayer 2.0 for Windows software which includes some cool new features -  an integrated programming guide and a video buffer.

 

The Electronic Program Guide – Quickly scan all of your available channels, including favorites, plus lists 7 days worth of programming at a glance. Plus, you can customize the guide to access your favorite channels with a click of your mouse.

 

The video buffer allows customers who may not have a DVR to pause and rewind live TV. Even customers who have a DVR will find the video buffer feature a useful tool to navigate within a program without affecting the video playback at home.

 

Plus watching any of your Slingboxes has never been easier with Sling Accounts which allows you access all of your settings and Slingboxes on any PC

 


If you have a Slingbox or an HDTV, the Slingbox PRO-HD is the Ultimate Device to watch all of your shows anywhere on your laptop or even mobile phone.

 

One more thing...when combined with a SlingCatcher, Slingbox PRO-HD will stream your living room television to either another TV in the home or to a remote TV.  All with no Monthly Fees.
