Metra Home Theatre Group (MHTG) showcases HDMI cables with 48Gbps bandwidth-- specifically the Velox fibre HDMI cables with ethernet-- together with 8K products and next-generation HDMI electronics at ISE 2020.
The Velox HDMI cables can handle 8K and even 10K content up to 100m with a true 8K signal generator. First seen back at CES 2020, the Velox cables feature premium construction allowing them to handle the demands of higher bandwidth content in long runs. Multi-layer shielding prevents electromagnetic interference, maximising noise isolation and protecting components from HDMI ultra-low speed emanations. The Velox EHV-HDG2 series will be available soon in lengths from 10 to 100m.
The CS-4X1MVU is a 4x1 HDMI multi-viewer able to show up to four sources, with different content on a single display together with a choice of different split-screen viewing modes. For example, viewers can watch multiple sports games on one screen, look at a PC display and a Blu-ray player at the same time, or show both a video game and a cable STB on the TV. Users can select which input's audio is sent to the display, and both inputs and outputs support 720p, 1080p, 1440p and 4K@30Hz.
Also on show at ISE 2020 is a series of Helios 8K DisplayPort gaming cables promising zero latency. The cables provide ultra-fast response times for gamers, as well as "unprecedented" picture quality. The cables cconnect to high-frequency gaming monitors to work with video resolutions ranging from HD to 8K. They support audio passthrough for uncompressed digital 7.1, 5.1 or 2.1 audio for flexibility and performance, and enable multi-monitor configurations with a DisplayPort 1.4 cable, as well as backwards compatibility with DisplayPort 1.2 cables.
“8K was everywhere at the CEDIA Expo and CES and we’re expecting it to be another big theme at ISE," MHTG says. "While TV manufacturers are debuting more and more 8K displays, we’re excited to showcase the latest technology in cables and electronics that will help integrators provide a home theater experience that will perform up to its true 8K potential. Additionally, we are still providing reliable solutions for 4K AV distribution and next-generation electronics that solve today’s HDMI problems."
