DLNA
The (DLNA) is a non-profit collaborative trade organization
established by Sony in June 2003, that is responsible for defining
interoperability guidelines to enable sharing of digital media such
as music, photos and videos between consumer devices such as
computers, TVs, printers, cameras, cell phones, and other
multimedia devices. DLNA uses Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)
for media management, discovery and control.[4] UPnP defines
the type of device that DLNA supports ("server", "renderer",
"controller") and the mechanisms for accessing media over a
network. The DLNA guidelines then apply a layer of restrictions
over the types of media file format, encodings and resolutions
that a device must support.
11AC
IEEE 802.11ac is a wireless computer networking standard of
802.11, currently under development, providing high-throughput
wireless local area networks on the 5 GHz band.
Theoretically,
the 802.11ac specification will enable multi-station WLAN
throughput of at least 1 gigabit per second and a maximum
single link throughput of at least 500 megabits per second (500
Mbit/s).
This is accomplished by extending the air interface
concepts embraced by 802.11n: wider RF bandwidth (up to 160
MHz), more MIMO spatial streams (up to 8), multi-user MIMO,
