Rumors of a cheaper version of Chromecast have been floating around the internet for months. It seems that this object is a reality, Because a terminal that meets the features mentioned in these rumors has passed the American telecommunications organization FCC (Federal Communications Commission).
It was the site Droid-Life that noticed him. His name is not disclosed but Referred to as Google G454V. Although we do not have images of the terminal in question, we can see a diagram that represents it.
Chromecast Light will be limited to 1080p
FCC application simply identifies the object as “wireless terminal” » Compatible with 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz 802.11ac WiFi, Bluetooth connectivity. As shown in the diagram, the terminal connects to the back of the display, just like a regular Chromecast does, without a cable in the way. In addition, the diagram shows that this object (referred to as EUT) is accompanied by a remote control, as in the latest Chromecast to date.
The most interesting concerns the technical characteristics of the object. this looks Limited to 1080p streaming. So this could be the “lite” Chromecast that has been talked about for a few months now. It is a device that will be much cheaper to buy and will be able to convince those who are not yet interested or who do not have a 4K screen at home. As a reminder, Chromecast with Google TV is currently on sale for 60 euros.
Certainly, nothing indicates this is a Chromecast. However, the described usage leaves little room for doubt. It’s true that Google offers a number of connected objects for sale, but only one has the features outlined in the FCC report.
Therefore, the official announcement should not take long and we will of course keep you informed if Google announces its new product.
