AudioQuest® HDMI Cable-Carbon

At a Glance

The HDMI standard was created to transfer uncompressed digital audio and video. HDMI cable’s many internal conductors include communication channels, which allow automatic display and source matching for resolution, format and aspect ratio.

MHL to Standard HDMI

The HDMI standard was created to transfer uncompressed digital audio and video. HDMI cable’s many internal conductors include communication channels, which allow automatic display and source matching for resolution, format and aspect ratio.

“Standard Speed” HDMI cable will, at-minimum, transfer 1080i, 720p, 1080p/30Hz source material.

“High Speed” HDMI cable will, in addition, transfer 1080p/120Hz, 4K, 3D video.

“With Ethernet” HDMI cable (with HEC) includes conductors for bi-directional Ethernet communication. Ethernet capability is independent of “Speed” capability.

Solid 5% Silver Conductors

Solid conductors eliminate strand-interaction distortion and reduce jitter. Solid silver-plated conductors are excellent for very high-frequency applications, like HDMI audio and video. These signals, being such a high frequency, travel almost exclusively on the surface of the conductor. As the surface is made of high-purity silver, the performance is very close to that of a solid silver cable, but priced much closer to solid copper cable. This is an incredibly cost effective way of manufacturing very high-quality HDMI cables.

Reduces smearing and preserves dynamic contrast.

High Speed Data Capacity

All AudioQuest HDMI cables up to 10 meters meet or exceed the 10.2 Gbps maximum data rate for HDMI and are approved High Speed with Ethernet cables. This means that all AudioQuest cables up to 10 meters are capable of transmitting 100% of the data required for all of HDMI’s current audio/video features including multichannel high-resolution audio, 1080p and 4k video, and 3D video from Blu-ray. All AQ HDMI cables will deliver 100% of the data required for 120Hz/240Hz/600Hz displays.

Ethernet And Audio Return Channel Enabled

All AudioQuest HDMI cables up to 10 meters are rated High Speed with Ethernet. From 12 meters to 20 meters AudioQuest HDMI cables are Standard Speed with Ethernet.
