Apple Announces Time Capsule

Wireless Backup for all Your Macs

MACWORLD SAN FRANCISCO - January 15th, 2008
Apple® today introduced Time Capsule, a backup appliance that automatically and wirelessly backs up everything on one or more Macs running Leopard™, the latest release of Apple’s Mac OS® X operating system including the amazing Time Machine™ automatic backup software. Time Capsule combines an 802.11n base station with a server grade hard disk in one small package. Simply plug it in, then easily set up automatic wireless backup for every Mac® in your house to a single Time Capsule with just a few clicks. Time Capsule offers the benefits of a full-featured 802.11n Wi-Fi base station, and comes in two models: a 500 gigabyte model for just SEK 2 895 incl. moms. and a 1 terabyte model for just SEK 4 795 incl. moms.
“Bring Time Capsule home, plug it in, click a few buttons on your Macs and voila—all the Macs in your house are being backed up automatically, every hour of every day,” said Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO. “With Time Capsule and Time Machine, all your irreplaceable photos, movies and documents are automatically protected and incredibly easy to retrieve if they are ever lost.”
Built to work seamlessly with Time Machine, Time Capsule lets users wirelessly back up all of the data on their Macs, find lost files and even restore all of their software. In the event a file is lost, users can wirelessly search back through time to find deleted files, applications, photos and other digital media and then instantly restore the file. If it’s ever necessary, Leopard can also easily restore an entire system from the Time Machine backup on Time Capsule.
In addition to being the best way to back up a Mac, Time Capsule is also a full-featured Wi-Fi base station with the latest 802.11n technology. Delivering up to five times the performance and twice the range of 802.11g, 802.11n* is built in to Apple’s iMac® desktop and the entire Mac notebook line up, including MacBook®, MacBook Pro and the new MacBook Air. Time Capsule features a sleek design with a built-in power supply and connections to print wirelessly to a USB printer. With Time Capsule, it’s very easy for users to create a secure, wireless network for up to 50 users and set security restrictions such as Internet access limits for children’s computers.
At SEK 2 895 incl. moms. for a 500GB model and SEK 4 795 incl. moms. for a 1TB model and a fully integrated 802.11n AirPort Extreme® Base Station, Time Capsule can serve as a backup solution for multiple computers as well as the backbone for a high-speed, 802.11n wireless network, making it effortless and affordable for everyone at home, school or work to protect their digital files.
Additional Time Capsule features include:
  • dual-band antennae for 2.4GHz or 5GHz frequencies;
  • three Gigabit LAN ports;
  • one Gigabit Ethernet WAN port;
  • one USB 2.0 port;
  • Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA/WPA-2), 128-bit WEP encryption; and
  • a built-in NAT firewall supporting NAT-PMP for features like Back to My Mac.

Pricing & Availability:
Time Capsule will be available in February through the Apple Store and Apple Authorised Resellers for a suggested retail price of SEK 2 895 incl. moms. for a 500GB hard drive and SEK 4 795 incl. moms. for a 1TB hard drive.
Apple startet den personlige datarevolusjonen på 1970-tallet med Apple II, og redefinerte den personlige datamaskinen på 1980-tallet med Macintosh. I dag er Apple fortsatt ledende innen nyskapning, med prisbelønte datamaskiner, operativsystemet OS X, iLife og programmer for profesjonell bruk. Apple ligger også helt i front i den digitale musikkrevolusjonen med iPod bærbare musikk- og videospillere og nettbutikken iTunes Store, og har gått inn i markedet for mobiltelefoner med sin banebrytende iPhone.
    *Time Capsule is based on an IEEE 802.11n draft specification. Actual performance will vary based on range, connection rate, site conditions, size of network and other factors.
