FCC Link: FCC ID AK8CUHZWA1 Wireless Adaptor by Sony Corporation

Today a mysterious but quite interesting certification appeared on the database of the Federal Communications Commission. The certification, requested by Sony Interactive Entertainment, is for a “wireless adaptor” with the product code CUH-ZWA1U.

The “CUH” series of codes is associated with PS4 and its accessories, indicating that the adapter is related to Sony’s console, even if the nature of this relation is where the mystery lays.

...

Another, more likely possibility could be extrapolated from the “Z” at the beginning of the second part of the code. The letter is normally associated with controllers. The CUH-ZWA1U could be a proprietary dongle to connect a DualShock 4 to other devices like PCs, ensuring full compatibility for games and the recently released remote play.

...

Unfortunately most of the documentation is still covered by confidentiality, and will be kept under wraps until January 2017, which means that we’ll probably have to wait for an official announcement to know what exactly this adapter is for.​

I am vouching DS4 support for PC with Remote Play, as suggested by article above. What do you you think?
