RS Components extends high-quality storage range with lightweight cases from Peli Air

RS Components extends high-quality storage range with lightweight cases from Peli Air
Versatile storage solutions are 40% lighter and provide tough waterproof protection for valuable equipment in diverse applications
SINGAPORE, Oct. 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- RS Components (RS), the trading brand of Electrocomponents plc (LSE: ECM), the global distributor for engineers, has introduced a variety of new products to its high-quality storage portfolio, including the lightweight Peli Air case range and new RS Pro storage case options.
http://photos.prnasia.com/prnvar/20161011/8521606491
http://photos.prnasia.com/prnvar/20150818/8521505364LOGO
Peli is the pioneer of polymer cases that are world renowned for being very tough and waterproof and provide excellent protection for a diverse variety of valuable and sensitive equipment. For example, the cases are ideal for use by broadcasters and photographers, storing sensitive military/defence equipment or transporting delicate electronics gear such as test equipment, as well as many other outdoor uses. Other potential market sector uses include maintenance, power, telecoms or the oil and gas industries.
The Peli Air range is especially suited to weight limited applications such as those found in logistics and transportation. The new rugged, watertight, dustproof, crushproof and wheeled cases complement the existing Peli Storm range, but have been innovatively designed to be up to 40% lighter than other polymer cases, while retaining their durability.
The company has made the Peli Air range strong and light by moulding them from proprietary super-lightweight resin that rebounds without breaking, as well as designing honeycomb structural elements that are stronger than solid polymer material. The cases feature proven tough double-throw latches, automatic purge valves to balance air pressure, and watertight O-ring gaskets. The Air range also sports a new style 'conic curve' shaped lid, stainless-steel hasp protectors and rubber over-moulded handles. It also uses the TrekPak system, which provides pre-installed wall sections, divider panels, locking pins and a fool-proof cutting tool so that engineers and other users can easily lay equipment in the case, measure and cut the divider sections, and lock them in place with the steel U-pins.
Also new at RS are two RS Pro storage-product ranges, including the RS Pro Aluminium and Transit Cases and the RS Pro Tool cases. Ideal for transportation and storage, the aluminium transit cases are high-quality containers featuring cast aluminium stacking locators on each lid corner making them simple to stack and inter-stack. Additionally, the cases' ribbed body adds strength and the rubber seal in the lid makes them shower proof. The RS Pro Tool range includes a case with trolley that is perfect for mobile engineers and technicians. Consisting of an aluminium frame and high-impact ABS material, the cases are designed to protect tools from accidental shocks. They are also stackable, dustproof and waterproof.
All these storage products contribute to the range of RS solutions for customers looking to establish an effective plant maintenance programme.

"Tomb Raider is one of Square Enix's crowning achievements, and I am proud of the many adventures we've taken with Lara Croft over the years, particularly with Rise of the Tomb Raider," said Yosuke Matsuda, president and representative director of Square Enix Holdings Co., Ltd. "We plan to continue Lara's enduring legacy by exploring new and innovative ways for players to experience her character and story."
Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration is the most comprehensive version of the award-winning experience, and includes Rise of the Tomb Raider, along with a host of completely new content such as the new story chapter "Blood Ties," "Lara's Nightmare" zombie combat mode, PlayStation® VR support for "Blood Ties," co-op Endurance gameplay, an "Extreme Survivor" difficulty, five classic Lara skins, and an outfit and weapon inspired by TR III. It also includes all of the previously released downloadable content such as the critically acclaimed "Baba Yaga: The Temple of the Witch," "Cold Darkness Awakened," 12 outfits, seven weapons, multiple Expedition Card packs, and more.
"Our development team has crafted the ultimate package in Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration," said Scot Amos, Co-Head of Studio at Crystal Dynamics. "The game and all of the new additions delivers something for every gamer with an epic single-player story, survival co-op action, and a fully immersive virtual reality story chapter."
After uncovering an ancient mystery, Lara must explore the most treacherous and remote regions of Siberia to find the secret of immortality before a ruthless organization known as Trinity beats her to it. Faced with the mysterious Remnant leader Jacob, the constant threats of Trinity's leader Konstantin, and driven by her Father's unfinished legacy, Lara must become the Tomb Raider she is destined to be.
"Being a part of Tomb Raider history has been such an honor for the team," said Ron Rosenberg, Co-Head of Studio at Crystal Dynamics. "We're excited to share this journey with our fans, in what has become the Year of Tomb Raider."
Since her first appearance in 1996 in the original Tomb Raider from Core® Design, Lara Croft® has trekked more than 25 countries and revolutionized the way the gaming community perceives lead characters in video games. Lara is an intrepid, empowered adventurer who must rely on her skills and intelligence not only to unravel ancient mysteries but also to survive in the most treacherous environments.
Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration is now available in all major retail stores in North America at a suggested retail price of MSRP $59.99. As a special launch week bonus, Square Enix is awarding everyone who logs in and plays Rise of the Tomb Raider on any available platform with 100,000 in-game credits, with which players can purchase Expedition Cards to be used in a variety of replay modes.

Essence Smoothes the Way to Smart Home Adoption with New IFTTT Capabilities and Z-Wave+ Connectivity
Global Smart Home Market Will Hit $130B Annually by 2020
TEL AVIV, Israel, Oct. 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Essence, a leading provider of IoT, cloud-based connected living solutions, has expanded its Smart Living platform, WeR@Home⢠by adding IFTTT capabilities and Z-Wave+ certification to meet the significant increase in demand for smart home devices.
Almost one in every four Americans will incorporate a connected device this year, according to recent stats. Nearly 50% of GenX and Millennial customers already have a smart product at home. 56% of consumers who own at least one smart connected device intend to buy more products in the next year.
The most popular devices include connected cameras, smart thermostats, smart lighting, and smart locks. With Essence's IFTTT capabilities and Z-Wave+ connectivity, consumers can use Essence's WeR@Home⢠platform to incorporate these devices and myriad services such as geo-fencing. Users can build easy and intuitive automation scenarios that enable them to independently manage their home environment seamlessly from anywhere, anytime, and on any screen in real time.
While Millennials are largely buying connected devices for convenience, GenX are more driven by home security and energy savings. WeR@Home⢠delivers Home Security and Safety, Remote Home Management, Home Automation and Energy-Saving modules. Many IFTTT use cases enhance all of these, but perhaps the most widely used will be the ability to control the system arming modes and devices by voice activation using Amazon Echoâ¢.
Service providers offering an IFTTT channel will increase the value of their WeR@Home⢠offering, delivering a better user experience while enhancing access to their core services, ultimately via a single app.
With Z-Wave +, customers will be able to expand their services by including even more of the very latest Z-Wave enabled home control devices offered by the leading manufacturers.
"Customers demand interconnectivity and higher efficiency from their IoT solutions," says Yaniv Amir, President of Essence USA. "We're allowing them to realize the real value of IoT with the ever-increasing openness of our WeR@Home platform."
Essence is a proud partner of the CONNECTIONS⢠Europe: Smart Home, IoT, and the Connected Consumer event, 2-3 November in Amsterdam. To arrange a meeting please write to info@essence-grp.com

OnApp v5.1 Introduces Simple, Intuitive Container Hosting for Cloud Service Providers and Enterprises
LONDON, October 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
OnApp [http://onapp.com ] has released v5.1 of OnApp Cloud, the leading cloud
management solution [http://onapp.com/v5-1 ] for telcos, hosting companies and other
service providers. As well as a range of improvements to OnApp's core cloud management
capabilities, OnApp v5.1 introduces a new beta feature - Container Servers - which pave
the way for a modern approach to containerized hosting, using technologies such as Docker,
in public and private clouds.
(Logo:

Container Servers share the same intuitive provisioning, management, failover and
metering of standard OnApp virtual servers, but are based on a CoreOS template that
provides the framework for cloud providers to deploy Docker and Kubernetes using OnApp's
market-leading control panel. The beta of Container Servers includes full container
customization via CoreOS's Cloud-Config tool.
Ditlev Bredahl, CEO of OnApp, said: "We're introducing containers, OnApp style, to
meet the demand of DevOps users for Docker - but deployed, metered and managed like
everything else in the OnApp platform, in an easy and intuitive way. Most cloud providers
are still looking for a good container use case: we're aiming to make Docker deployment as
simple and powerful as other cloud products you can provision with OnApp, and with this
first step we're looking forward to seeing how the global OnApp community puts it to use."
Container Servers are a beta feature in OnApp v5.1. Other features include:
Usage trend reporting: invaluable for identifying customers putting heavy demands on
storage, RAM or other critical resources.
vCloud Director enhancements: OnApp v5.1 adds new virtual server/vApp configuration
options; the ability to hot configure CPU and RAM within the OnApp UI; the ability to edit
network pools within resource pools; and new edge gateway configuration options within vCD
orchestration models. Â
"Email-as-a-Service" for Application Servers: the OnApp cloud platform can
automatically provision hundreds of applications along with a virtual server, which
simplifies SaaS, PaaS and DBaaS. With OnApp v5.1, users can also create, manage and delete
accounts for email applications through the OnApp control panel.
OnApp v5.1 is available now as a free upgrade to existing OnApp clients, and via a
range of starter, professional and enterprise packages for new customers. More information
is available at http://onapp.com/v5-1

NetComm Wireless to Showcase Wireless Network Terminating Innovations at Broadband World Forum
SYDNEY, Oct. 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- NetComm Wireless Limited (ASX: NTC), today announced that it will display its carrier-grade Wireless Network Terminating Devices (WNTD) at Broadband World Forum in London next week in response to the call for fast and cost-effective 4G LTE Fixed Wireless broadband deployments to regional, rural and outer urban locations worldwide.
http://photos.prnasia.com/prnvar/20150324/8521501794LOGO
In Australia, NetComm Wireless' WNTDs are proven to meet performance measures across vast geographic areas, and the technology is currently being deployed to deliver fast and reliable broadband to homes and businesses in underserved areas throughout the US.
"A common misconception about Wireless Network Terminating Devices is that the technology is consumer premises equipment (CPE). While both are installed at the premises, that's where the similarities end. Unlike basic CPE, WNTDs form an integral part of the 4G LTE network. The technology is owned, managed and monitored directly by the carrier.
Our WNTDs are engineered to deliver specific capacity to targeted premises and we are pleased to work with our partners to give homes and businesses an amount of bandwidth that guarantees performance so carriers can meet their headline speed claims for various products," said David Stewart, CEO and Managing Director, NetComm Wireless.
Specially engineered to extend the trusted zone all the way to the premises, NetComm Wireless' WNTDs bring optimal performance to premises in precise coverage areas by enabling a direct line of sight connection between the LTE base tower and the premises.
Designed to deliver network grade connectivity, NetComm Wireless' WNTDs bring 4G LTE broadband to homes and businesses while ensuring quality of service for guaranteed service level agreements.
Installed on the roof of the premises, WNTDs are network-grade devices built to withstand extreme wind, rain, heat, dust and other outdoor conditions; while offering surge protection for optimal reliability.
NetComm Wireless develops custom WNTDs that have demonstrated world leading capabilities. Offering more than basic CPE hardware and functions, NetComm Wireless' fixed wireless design service includes the installation, tools and software functionality needed to ensure quality of service and quality of experience while reducing the network operator's total cost of ownership.
NetComm Wireless will showcase its world leading Wireless Network Terminating Devices (WNTD) from 18-20 October 2016 at Broadband World Forum, stand D24, ExCeL Convention Centre, London.

Q Acoustics Speakers Ready to Rock Canada!
ATLANTA, October 10, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
The wait is finally over! The UK's fastest growing loudspeaker brand is set to take
the Canadian music scene by storm. Q Acoustics has today followed in the footsteps of The
Beatles, Coldplay and Adele by becoming the latest British export to make their mark
across the Atlantic, giving Canada the chance to experience the superb sound quality
engineered by a brand that has won more British hi-fi industry awards than any other since
its conception.
After widespread success, phenomenal reviews and countless accolades across Europe and
Asia, Q Acoustics has brought its world-class loudspeakers to Canada via the brand's North
American website (http://www.qacoustics.com), which is priced in US dollars. Products
are also available from leading e-commerce platforms, such as eBay, Amazon and Reverb.
Canada-based music enthusiasts will now be able to enjoy the multi award-winning Q

design. The popular 3010 and the slightly larger 3020 bookshelf speakers are a natural
choice for music lovers who want to experience superb sound quality in small and
medium-sized rooms. Designed for larger rooms, the 3050 floorstanding speakers boast the
ultra-low levels of distortion, typically found of units costing three to four times its
price. Unsurprisingly, as a result it delivers truly unrivalled sound quality and value.
Movie fans will be excited to hear that Q Acoustics will also be offering the hugely
admired Media 4 Soundbar. Already finishing first in TechRadar's definitive list of the
top ten soundbars, the Media 4 has also been named What HiFi? Product of the Year for the
last two years - widely recognised as the UK loudspeaker industry's version of The Oscars.
The innovative bluetooth soundbar with built-in subwoofer is perfect for any home. The
company will also be selling its highly acclaimed Concept loudspeaker range with its
innovative low resonance Gelcore technology. The concept range also includes its
state-of-the-art 5.1 home theater system.
All orders will be shipped from Q Acoustics' North American warehouse arriving in five
to seven days, while the organization's dedicated customer support team will handle any
queries quickly.
Jonathan Bennett, Marketing Director at Q Acoustics, said: "We are extremely excited
to be bringing our phenomenal speakers to the people of Canada. We have relied on British
design and class-leading acoustic engineering from Fink Audio to create a range of
products that can take their rightful place at forefront of the global music and
entertainment industry.
"The Canadian music scene is one of the biggest, most popular and diverse in the world,
responsible for artists such as Justin Bieber, Alanis Morrissette and Carly Rae Jepsen.
Moving forwards, we can't wait for music fans across the country to enjoy the superb sound
quality delivered by Q Acoustics products, whether they are listening to jazz, hip hop,
blues or rock and roll," Bennett added.

Teledyne LeCroy Announces Protocol Analyzer for PCI Express® 4.0 Technology
Protocol Analysis for PCIe® 4.0 at Data Rates up to 16 GT/s
SANTA CLARA, Calif., Oct. 10, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Teledyne LeCroy, the worldwide leader in protocol test solutions, today announced its new PCI Express (PCIe) protocol analyzer for capturing, recording and analyzing PCIe 4.0 systems and devices. The Summit(TM) T416 analyzer is the computer industry's first high speed PCIe 4.0 protocol analyzer that meets the challenge of 16GT/s and up to x16 lane width protocol analysis. Many PCIe 4.0 product designs are already in progress using the PCIe 4.0 specification. Companies at this stage are currently working with the Teledyne LeCroy Summit Z416 protocol exerciser for PCIe 4.0 shipped early this year for host system emulation with their testing needs. This combination of a protocol analyzer and exerciser make Teledyne LeCroy the only supplier of protocol test and development tools for PCIe Gen 4. High speed interposers that provide protocol analyzer connectivity to CEM or other form factor sockets on system boards will still continue to be the principle way to capture PCIe traffic into the protocol analyzer.
https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20161007/416532
The Summit T416 protocol analyzer features support for PCIe 4.0 at a speed of 16GT/s and up to x16 lane width. The protocol analyzer memory buffer is the deepest in the industry at 128GB. The protocol analyzer can be controlled through USB for remote networked control through a 1000baseT Ethernet to a windows system. The protocol analyzer can be synchronized with other high speed protocol analyzers from Teledyne LeCroy.
"Now that the Summit T416 protocol analyzer has been added to the existing PCIe 4.0 portfolio of products including the Summit Z416 protocol exerciser, the combination of both a full featured analyzer and exerciser will make driver and firmware development more productive and allow more extensive testing coverage", said John Wiedemeier, Senior Product Marketing Manager, Teledyne LeCroy's PCI Express Group. "Companies who develop servers, networks, storage systems and solid state drives (SSDs) will find these tools, as well as our currently available Verification Load Board, Verification Base Board and PSP400 test platform, essential to ensure design performance."
The Summit T416 protocol analyzer features the latest in storage protocol decoding including NVM Express(® )(NVMe) and SATA Express. It is also the only protocol analyzer to support the latest in NVMe management technology described in the NVM Express Management Interface (NVMe-MI) protocol specification. For example, some PCIe analyzers only support PCIe in-band capture for NVMe-MI but the Summit T416 can capture simultaneously in-band PCIe and out-of-band SMBus protocol traffic. Communications between applications using the Trusted Computing Group's Enterprise and Opal security can be decoded to confirm if accurate transmission of data is occurring.
As PCIe systems move toward implementing IO virtualization, the Summit T416 protocol analyzer is fully capable of decoding and describing virtualized systems in a multitude of different configurations. The CATC Trace((TM)) View, along with the recently added spreadsheet view, NVMe queue characterization tables, and LTSSM state views help users quickly come up to speed on how well their devices and systems are behaving in real world environments. Developers that need to get down to the byte level and see traffic just before and after deskew can do it this with the BitTracer(TM) feature. BitTracer records the bytes exactly as they come across the link, allowing debugging of PHY layer problems and combining the features of a logic analyzer format with a decoded protocol analyzer format.
The Summit T416 protocol analyzer uses high speed Interposers capable of tapping any device under test (DUT). These interposers utilize the T.A.P.(4 )technology from Teledyne LeCroy that ensures transparent acquisition of 16 GT/s PCIe transmission between hosts and devices. The interposers come in x1, x4, x8 and x16 lane widths that can cover testing requirements for all CEM connectors. In addition, Teledyne LeCroy is also releasing a PCIe 4.0 Test Platform that is a two CEM-socket active backplane with power supplies capable of supporting 16 GT/s bus transactions for testing CEM form factor devices. This Test Platform contains a high speed interposer that can capture traffic between the two CEM-socket. Ideally the test platform can be used for testing with the Summit Z416 protocol exerciser and the DUT.
"Teledyne LeCroy is actively involved in the PCIe industry providing analysis and test solutions around the world. We are committed to providing high quality development tools that will help expedite your testing productivity," said Joe Mendolia, Vice President of Marketing, Protocol Solutions Group, Teledyne LeCroy." We take our customer commitments seriously and strive for customer satisfaction in all that we do."
Teledyne LeCroy protocol analyzers and exercisers have been at the forefront of PCI Express development working closely with the computer industry over the last decade to provide the analysis features companies have needed for PCIe storage and IoT technology development. All Teledyne LeCroy protocol analysis and test products feature a hierarchical display, real-time statistics, protocol traffic summaries, detailed error reports, powerful scripting, and the ability to create user-defined test reports, which allow developers to troubleshoot intricate problems and finish their projects on time. Users of Teledyne LeCroy systems appreciate the rich library of decodes and analysis capabilities that are available on all of Teledyne LeCroy's PCIe test tools.
Availability
The Summit T416 PCIe 4.0 Protocol Analyzer, PCIe 4.0 x1, x4, x8, x16 Interposers and PCIe 4.0 Test Platform are currently available to order. For additional information, contact Teledyne LeCroy at 1-800-5LeCroy (1-800-553-2769) or visit Teledyne LeCroy's web site at teledynelecroy.com.
