Cisco launches media hub

The Linksys by Cisco Media Hub automatically gathers digital media from multiple sources around the home.

Cisco has announced the availability of the Linksys by Cisco Media Hub, which is designed to simplify access to and interaction with digital content.

The Media Hub gathers, organises, and presents all the digital video, photos and music that users have spread amongst various devices in the home. Access to the unit is also available remotely via a web browser.

“We have built the Media Hub to be simple to setup and use for consumers, but is also powerful in functionality and capabilities for the more tech-savvy users,” said Mohammad Hoda, director of emerging markets at the Cisco Consumer Business Group. “It is the central location you go to for access to your media without concern for where it is stored.”
