Forget long HDMI cable headaches in your home theater setup — there's a new wireless HDMI connector for 4K 60Hz video at up to 75 feet through walls, making it way easier to beam images around the home

Introducing the Nyrius Phoenix Home, a new wireless HDMI adapter capable of transmitting 4K resolution with Dolby Atmos, DTS and 7.1-channel surround sound over a distance of up to 75 feet through walls or floors. Priced at $199.99, the device is designed to simplify home theater setups by eliminating the need for cumbersome HDMI cables.

The Nyrius Phoenix Home is a true 4K wireless streamer that converts an HDMI source, such as a gaming console, Apple TV 4K, or Blu-ray player, into a wireless signal for your TV, projector, or desktop monitor. Featuring an HDMI input on the transmitter and an HDMI output on the receiver, the device boasts a 500-foot line-of-sight range when in plain air, making it ideal for outdoor movie nights with friends under a projector or large outdoor TV.

The compact design includes a USB-C port for remotely controlling a computer connected to the transmitter, allowing users to connect a keyboard and mouse through the receiver. Additionally, an IR extender is included for remote controllers. The device supports 4K resolution at up to 60fps and offers support for DTS, Dolby Atmos, and 7.1-channel surround sound.

This versatile adapter provides several applications at home and in business or educational environments. Renters, for example, can utilize the wireless HDMI adapter to stream movies or games without the hassle of drilling cable runs. Furthermore, rooms without AV systems in mind, such as those with a TV mounted above a fireplace, can benefit from this wireless solution.

While the device's latency for gaming applications remains untested, the Nyrius Phoenix Home offers an affordable and effective wireless HDMI solution for those looking to minimize cable clutter and enhance their home entertainment setup. Available now, this wireless HDMI adapter promises to be a game-changer for renters, homeowners, and anyone seeking a cable-free home theater experience.
