Long-Distance 4K Signal Integrity
The integrated active chipset maintains signal strength across 15 metres. Passive cables often fail at this length. This cord ensures consistent 4K 60Hz performance. It uses 24AWG bare copper wire for low resistance. Also, gold-plated connectors optimise conductivity. Because the signal is boosted internally, no external power is required. This simplifies installation in UK media rooms.
High Refresh Rate and HDR Support
This cable supports demanding video modes. It handles 1440p at 144Hz and 1080p at 240Hz. For example, gamers benefit from fluid motion. HDR10 delivers higher contrast and vibrant colours. The 12-bit colour depth supports rich gradients. However, you must verify your source and display support these modes. The cable provides the bandwidth; the devices must also comply.
Robust Build for UK Environments
The TPE jacket withstands 2,000 bending cycles at ±60 degrees. It routes easily around corners and desk edges. Robust strain reliefs prevent damage at connection points. The cable diameter is 9 mm, fitting standard conduits. Operating temperature range is 0–40 °C. This suits typical UK indoor conditions. The RoHS compliance confirms restricted hazardous substances.
Full HDMI 2.0 Feature Set
This cable supports key HDMI 2.0 capabilities. It includes Audio Return Channel (ARC) for TV audio to soundbars. HDMI Ethernet Channel (HEC) allows network connectivity over HDMI. HDCP 2.2 ensures secure content playback. Also, it supports up to 32 uncompressed digital audio channels. The aluminium mylar foil shielding minimises EMI. This reduces interference in electrically noisy spaces.
