Jungo announces USBware support for USB 3.0

LAS VEGAS, US, January 4th, 2011 - Jungo Ltd., a leading, global provider of connectivity software solutions, announces that its USBware embedded software protocol stack now supports the USB 3.0 specification (also known as SuperSpeed USB).

Jungo's support for USB 3.0 confirms their continued leadership in the embedded USB software market. USBware with USB 3.0 support will be demonstrated in the Jungo booth at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2011) in Las Vegas, from January 6 - 9, 2011.

USB 3.0 has a 5Gbps data rate (compared with 480Mbps for USB 2.0), is backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and has better power handling capabilities. Jungo will compare the two technologies at CES and demonstrate the high throughput of the new specification.

USBware enables device manufactures to easily incorporate USB connectivity in their designs. It has already been ported with USB 3.0 support to dozens of different operating systems and real time environments and is compatible with any USB 3.0 hardware. It provides Jungo customers with the flexibility to advance to the next level of USB performance, without changing their current environments.

Jungo's USBware is the connectivity solution used by leading device manufacturers and OEMs in industries ranging from consumer electronics and automotive to medical equipment and military applications. Products using USBware include smartphones, digital cameras, media players, TVs, set top boxes and many other types of consumer devices.

"We expect to see a massive uptake of USB 3.0 for a variety of devices over the next few years," said Jungo Connectivity Software General Manager Ophir Herbst. "We look forward to supporting both our existing customer base and new customers as they migrate to faster USB connectivity."
