Actiontec Wins Four Best In Biz 2013 International Awards, Including Top Honors For ScreenBeamSUNNYVALE, Calif., Aug. 14, 2013 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Actiontec Electronics announced today that it has taken home four awards in the Best in Biz Awards 2013 International, an independent business awards program judged by members of the press and industry analysts. Actiontec's awards include: Gold winner in Consumer Product of the Year for its ScreenBeam Wireless Display Kit; Silver winner for Technology Department of the Year; Bronze winner in Best Product of the Year for MyWirelessTV; and Bronze winner for Best New Website of the Year. The gold award-winning ScreenBeam Wireless Display Kit lets users wirelessly share content from a compatible computer, smartphone, or tablet to an HDTV. Movies, vacation photos, presentations, online videos and more come alive in brilliant HD on the largest display in the house. Friends and family can enjoy Hulu content, home videos, and more on the HDTV, rather than huddling around a laptop. As a bronze winner for Best Product of the Year, MyWirelessTV replaces HDMI cables with a wireless transmitter and receiver to deliver HDTV over a standard WiFi network. This means users can hang a new flat panel above the living room fireplace and not have to worry about cables ruining the aesthetics. In addition, the Actiontec Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) group was honored for its role as the cornerstone of the company's innovation and product development. And judges recognized the revamped Actiontec website for its simplified design, user-friendly navigation, and impressive collection of learning tools and resources.
