Dukutek.com - With speeds of up to 5 Gbps, or about 600 MB per second, USB 3.0 is one of the fastest interface for traditional computers. This year, the port will receive an update that makes it able to provide data up to two times faster.
"USB 3.0 Promoter Group which determines the USB specification revision 3.0 is doing that will increase the speed to 10 gigabits per second," said President and COO of the USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF) Jeff Ravencraft, as quoted by The Register.
Doubles the transfer speed is not the only improvement to be implemented on USB 3.0. "The other main point is that improve the capacity of encoding data so that the functionality of the data transfer may be more efficient. This will increase the speed, the efficiency of power I / O becomes higher", said Ravencraft .
USB 3.0 Promoter Group Chairman Brad Saunders added that the increase of the speed of USB 3.0 is done by doubling the clockrate, in addition to improving the efficiency of data transfer. "Bandwidth is two times higher than the minimum expected."
Encoding data model that will be applied to USB 3.0 is compatible with all types of data, including audio and video.
However, to take advantage of a higher theoretical speed, the cable will also need a new model. "See, the old wiring is not capable of supporting the new standard for speed," said Saunders, ensuring that the new USB port for compatibility with previous versions of USB ports.
About the name, it is not clear the new USB 3.0 standard will be called something. Once, when it was introduced in 1996, is referred to as the universal "USB" port only. Then, in April 2000, USB 2.0 add frills in the front so that it becomes "Hi-Speed USB." Then there is USB 3.0, which is called "SuperSpeed USB".
