Richmond, CA (PRWEB) August 16, 2004 -- Keyspan, America’s #1 brand of USB
connectivity products*, is now shipping its USB Parallel Transfer Cable. The
cable and software provide a complete solution for connecting an older PC (with
no USB port) to a new PC (with USB port) in order to transfer files or to
synchronize a desktop PC with a laptop PC.
The Keyspan USB Parallel
Transfer Cable has an MSRP of $29 and is available to resellers at Ingram Micro,
D&H, and Wynit; and to consumers at, CDW, PC Connection and other leading
computer products resellers.
While many older PCs do not support USB,
many new PCs, including more and more laptops, have dropped serial and parallel
ports. Keyspan has developed a cable that connects the parallel port of the old
PC to the USB port of the newer PC. The cable enables file transfer and
synchronization in instances where USB-USB, Ethernet-Ethernet, or
Parallel-Parallel connectivity is not possible.
The Keyspan USB Parallel
Transfer Cable lets users:
- Display content of connected PCs with dual
file tree
- Copy, move, and delete files, groups of files, or whole
directories
- Use conditional replacement modes for file synchronization
-
Transfer rates from 4 MB- to 10 MB per minute with data compression
- Copy
files with 32-bit CRC integrity verification
- Supports all 32-bit versions
of Windows
“Now PC users have a simple and reliable way to connect their
older Win95 desktops with the new generation of PCs,” said Mike Ridenhour,
president of Keyspan. “The Keyspan USB Parallel Transfer Cable is unique
solution for file transfer, synchronization, and PC migration."
