Audioquest HDMI Active Forest 18Gbps 10m

0.5% Silver Conductors

Solid conductors eliminate strand interaction distortion and reduce jitter. Silver-plated conductors are perfect 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. Since the surface is made of high-purity silver, the performance is very close to that of a solid silver cable, but at a price much closer to solid copper cable. It is an incredibly cost-effective way of manufacturing very high-quality HDMI cables.

High-Speed Data Capacity

HDMI standards and capabilities have improved significantly since DVI first evolved into HDMI. All generations are backward compatible. However, not all previous HDMI cables can transmit the 18 Gbps of data needed to optimize current HDMI 2.0 equipment.

Although there is currently no 4K/60 4:4:4 software requiring the full 18Gbps capability of HDMI, some sources (UHD Blu-ray players) can be set to “up-sample”, requiring 18Gbps capacity.
