In-Car Solutions
Belkin has also unveiled their new line up of in-car solutions. It includes different kinds of car mounts specially designed to be compatible to some of the biggest smartphones on the market. Belkin has also unveiled a new line of car chargers that powers up your devices with ease while on the go.
TYPE C Cables
With new technology comes new challenges and USB-C, also known as USB Type-C, is no exception. The capability of the USB-C Cable and why it is the most reliable, highest grade and safest cables on the market were also explained in the academy.
The USB-C port offers users the ability to rapidly charge, take advantage of USB 3 data transfer speeds for connecting to external devices and peripherals, and connect video output such as HDMI, VGA, and Mini DisplayPort.
One of the most notable features is the reversible design, which eliminates the annoyance of trying to figure out which way to plug the cable into your peripheral.
Along with the new connector and port combination, there is a new standard called USB 3.1 SuperSpeed+. This means that soon, almost everything, everywhere, will be powered, charged and connected by USB-C cables. What makes USB 3.1 SuperSpeed+ technology so amazing is that it can do three things: it transfers data at faster speed up to 10 Gbps, power and charge devices such as laptops, tablets and phones very quickly up to 100 watts and 3 Amps of power and deliver high quality audio and video (4K/UltraHD).
100K Gadget Guarantee
One of the highlights of the Academy is the Belkin’s 100K Gadget Guarantee. They called it $2.5K Connected Equipment Warranty (CEW) internationally. You’ll automatically get a 100k gadget guarantee when you buy a Belkin product that is CEW certified. CEW covers equipment that is damaged by transient voltage (an “Occurrence”) while properly connected through a Belkin Surge Protector to a properly wired AC power line with a protective ground.
Belkin will spend, to repair or replace the damaged connected equipment, at Belkin’s option, an amount equal to the fair market value of the damaged equipment or the original purchase price of the equipment, whichever is less, up to the maximum amount set forth in the product packaging.
From wireless home networking and entertainment, to mobile accessories, energy management, and an extensive range of cables, Belkin products enhance the technology that connects us to the people, activities and experiences we love.
