This cable is version 1.3B – It transfers data at a speed of up to 10.2GB/s, pushing standards to the limits. Employs all current standards such as deep colour and xvYCC
HDMI lead supports - 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, 1080p resolutions.
Triple Shielding, PVC jacket and an outer Nylon Sheath! - Simply unbeatable, all noise is diminished. The signal is pure and unmarked. The high density braid shielding cuts out most of the interferance.
Gas Injected Dielectric Material - This material is used for isolation, to keep the capacitance low and to maintain the signal strength and impedance across the cable.
Gold plated double moulded connectors – What’s the point in a high quality cable if the signal is not transferred properly? The connectors on this cable are solid brass conductors with 24 carat gold plating. These cables don't have a lacquer protection because they do not need it (the gold will not tarnish). 24 carat gold achieves better conductivity when lacquer is not in use and provides a purer signal transfer.
OFC – The lead is made using 99.99% oxygen free copper which increases the signal quality across the length of the cable. This generates a much purer signal.
HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) - This lead is compatible with content scrambling used in current equipment, such as TVs.
Type of Connector used - The connectors used are type A. The ‘Type’ stands for the size of connector used and the amount of pins it has. Type A is the most commonly used connector and is used in Sky HD Boxes, PS3s and most HD ready plasma and LCD televisions.
Cable strain relief to protect the cable - Enables the HDMI lead to be bent in a multitude of directions without breaking, unlike many poorer quality HDMI leads sold by different companies.
Function - These cables were designed to transfer high-bandwidth (large data content) of 100% uncompressed digital video and multi channel digital audio and control functions.
HDMI cables are digital! – Due to this cable being digital and not analogue, attenuation, (loss of quality), is minimal over large distances due to the all or nothing principal that is used in digital technology. Therefore the quality produced by a 5 metre cable won’t differ from a 1.5m cable.
Standards - HDMI ATC compliance-tested, ROHS, CE
