The 'Invisible' Cable, One Of The Good Ideas Of Samsung For Its Teles

The Korean manufacturer extends the One Connect system to all its telephones. A single fiber connection for BluRay, console, decoder ... even the Apple TV. For four generations of TVs, Samsung offers a very useful connection system in its high range of televisions. It is called One Connect and is a hub port. In this way, the peripherals are connected to the One Connect and one only has to carry two cables: the power cable and the data cable.

The first idea was not only to eliminate the noise of cables that forms behind the TV but to allow the updating of the own television changing the processor. This was what was called Evolution Kit, a box with the processor and ports. It was a peripheral that had to be purchased separately. Later, the One Connect was incorporated as standard on more expensive models to facilitate placement and removal of cables, and now, without the Evolution Kit, extends to the full range of Samsung smart TVs.

It was not an invention of Samsung. The public could already see it in some of the first Philips equipment with Ambilight, that system of projection of dominant colors in the image on the wall behind the TV. However, it has been the Koreans who have persisted most in the idea. And now they evolve.

How does audiovisual content come to users now? Okay, in some cases still through the antenna, but increasingly by the fiber optic cable of the telephone operators. That's what Samsung has done, using fiber to connect the One Connect to the TV. The big advantage is that it is very thin, as they have covered with a clear plastic call unseen; The downside is that it can get broken if folded.

The system allows the user to get rid of the cables after the TV, but if one has a BluRay, a sound bar, an Apple TV, a decoder Movistar ... they will not get rid of the controls. Well, they begin to be unnecessary. Logically, to play with the console have to go to a specific one, but the other teams can be controlled with the Smart Control and voice.
