Our Goal provide plug-and-enjoy digital
entertainment

• Seamless brand interoperability
• Easy to use
• Multiple real-time AV streams
• Network self configuration
• Forward compatibility
• Distributed user interfaces

8
HAVi builds on IEEE1394 interconnect i.LINK or
FireWire

• Single cable vs. multiple A/V and control
  connections
• High speed (100, 200, 400 Megabits/sec.), can
  carry multiple simultaneous HD streams
• "Hot Plug Play" with automated configuration
  and device recognition
• Topology free (hook up in any configuration)
• No "master controller" needed

9
HAVi Technical Features

• Open platform, architecture neutral
• Multi-brand interoperable
• Extensible, "future-proof" open architecture
• Control and A/V content streams
• Plug and enjoy - easy to install
• Distributed control - peer to peer communication

10
HAVi Features - 2

• Downloadable modules and applications
• Support for legacy devices
• Devices and applications can register themselves
  to the network and discover other devices and
  applications
• Devices can present their user interface on other
  devices
