Vcept(TM) Low-Profile Antennas Complement Flat-Screen Digital TVs, While
Contemporary Design of Argo(TM) Gives New Look to High-End A/V Systems
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Power Sentry, a leading manufacturer and
distributor of high-quality surge protectors, computer accessories and USB
products, has announced two new lines of Newpoint branded indoor TV antenna
products that bring the aesthetics of antennas to an entirely new level. Both
the Vcept(TM) and Argo(TM) antennas will be showcased at the 2005
International CES tradeshow from January 6 to 9 in Las Vegas.
The Vcept(TM) antennas feature a sleek and sophisticated design and
low-profile housing to harmonize with the design of today's flat screen
digital TVs, including LCD and plasma screens. Meanwhile, the Argo(TM) line
utilizes a high-tech housing and leverages a contemporary, high-tech design to
match the A/V systems and the modern decor found in many homes. Both lines
offer amplified and passive models to provide users with the broadest range of
choices available.
"Historically, users just accepted that an antenna was unattractive but
necessary component to their television system," said Brian Dunfee, Senior
Product Manager for Connectivity and Home Theatre Products at Power Sentry.
"These two new families of television antennas offer an alternative that
combines the best technology available with designs that will add to rather
than detract from the overall system."
Both families provide the technology features that users expect. The
antennas are HDTV ready and include separate amplifiers with individual gain
controls for optimum UHF (35dB gain range) and VHF (45dB gain range)
reception. Twelve position fine-tuning control gives users the ability to
easily adjust picture quality.
The unique SkidSkin(TM) elastomer base allows the units to be safely
placed on virtually any surface without moving or scratching. In addition,
the antennas offer extra-long (44 inches) VHF dipoles with 360 degree rotation
for superior reception of low-VHF channels. An extra-large UHF reflector
rotates 270 degrees, both left and right, and pivots up and down to improve
reception of UHF frequencies, including HDTV channels.
Newpoint's lifestyle packaging help reduce consumer confusion. Each model
is color coded to help buyers quickly and easily identify the product that
will best suite their needs. In addition, all of the primary features,
benefits and specifications are clearly identified on the packaging.
Both the Argo(TM) and Vcept(TM) antennas carry a limited lifetime
warranty, rather than the industry standard of one to five year guarantee.
The products are priced at $24.99 to $69.99 MSRP.
