    Imagine a Cordless future... Using WiGig to replace your display cable, keyboard and mouse cables and even your speakers!

    It is a long way off the replacing the latest USB 3.1 type C, DP or HDMI cable for 4K use. HDMI 1.3 transfers data at up to 10.2 Gbps over single-link, HDMI 1.4 the same, HDMI 2 is 18Gbps and , and can even go as high as 26 Gbps, Display port 1.3 is up to 32.4Gbps and the latest Thunderbolt 3/USB 3.1 type C is all the way up to 40 Gbps. Also, HDMI 2.0 has enough bandwidth, at 18 Gbps, to support the delivery of two different high bit-rate 1080P video streams with audio, coming from a single source such as a cable TV box, to the same screen for dual view (3d, 2x separate programs at the same time, et cetera).
    The other advantage of HDMI and USB 3.1 type C is that they transmit more than just a video signal, power would be little hard at the moment to transmit over wifi.
    But for general household tasks, and for most PC accessories it could be a noticeable improvement.
    Remembering that the 60GHz band is not going to get very far.
    Plus there is no mention of the speeds related to each band, so if the 60GHz is required for the increase in speed, you will need to be close to take full advantage.
