Intel declared publicly this week its intentions to release the developer’s kits for the new Thunderbolt data transfer system, which will consequently allow increasing the number of Thunderbolt-compatible devices greatly, states PC World. Moreover, it was stated that this announced will reduce the taken for such products to be made available for consumers. The inauguration of Thunderbolt system took place on 24th of February, 2011, by Intel. Whole series of the upcoming new line of Apple’s Mac Book Pro laptops will be the first devices which will actually release the new ports of high-speed connection actually in the market.
The Thunderbolt data transfer system holds up the data transfers between any two devices, as of the speed with a computer and an external hard drive. The speed will be approximately up to 10 gigabits per second, which is straight forwardly 20 times faster than USB 2.0, and two times more fast than USB 3.0, as it only allows 5Gbps. This great new speed of Thunderbolt implies that a full high-definition video will be able to be moved between two devices within just 30 seconds. This extra-ordinarily new advances transfer speed of Thunderbolt makes use of light rather than copper wires, ultimately letting the information to travel relatively very much quickly. Intel aims that after some time they could increase this transfer speed to even up to 100Gbps.
Canon has recently proclaimed just last month that its next line will be featuring the Thunderbolt technology, though it will only be included in Canon’s video cameras, not DSLRs at the moment. Moreover other companies which are rumored to be taking advantage of this new technology soon include Western Digital, Sonnet and BlackMagic. Sony has been alleged to be the supporter of the whole Thunderbolt system, though no official statement has been made which declares their intentions to use the technology soon.
