HDMI Cables
HDMI cables carry the same sort of digital video signal as DVI cables, as well as 16 bit, 8 channel digital audio signals. HDMI is backwards compatible with DVI devices, but will obviously not be able to carry the 8 channel digital audio connection that is available over a pure HDMI connection.

HMDI 1.3 adds support for "x.v. Color" which is the IEC 61966-2-4 xvYCC color standard or Deep Color, which removes current color space limitations and enables the display of any color viewable by the human eye. Our Certified High-Speed or "Category 2" cables have been tested to perform at speeds up to 340 Mhz/10.2 Gbps which is the highest bandwidth currently available over a single digital link cable and can go beyond a 1080p signals.  Version 1.3b Cat-2 cables are able to support higher resolution displays such as WQXGA cinema monitors with a resolution of 2560 x 1600. With version 1.3, HDMI now also supports lossless compressed streams such as Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio.

FAQs about HDMI

Question:
Can I get a HDMI cable that is longer than 15ft (5m)?

Answer:
The HDMI standard states that the maximum distance that HDMI cables can be run is 15ft (5m). Recently, longer length HDMI cables have been created and are availble on our web site. Please note that the supported resolution drops after 15 metres. A signal bootser may be required if the maximum resolution is needed at longer lengths. Please contact us for availability.
