All about the product
PEARL 48 HDMI cable with speeds up to 48 Gbps with bandwidth for video up to 10K resolution The new generation of HDMI 48 cables is fully compatible with the latest hardware equipped with HDMI 2.1 connectors. These latest devices require wider bandwidth and higher data rates than existing HDMI version 1.4 and 2.0 cables allow. However, HDMI PEARL 48 is also backwards compatible with all previous versions and thus accommodates older types of audio/video equipment. 4K / 8K / 10K - compatible 48 Gb/s bandwidth for 8K/60fps and 4K/120fps video, HDR (High Dynamic Range), HDR10+, Dolby VISION LGC (Long Grain Cooper) copper conductors eARC audio return channel with support for Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Atmos, DTS-HD Master Audio and DTS:X Efficient noise and high-frequency interference cancellation system Grounding - Tinned Copper All wires are directionally controlled The AudioQuest PEARL 48 HDMI cable is capable of transmitting up to professional 10K Ultra-HD video. The impressive 48 Gbps data rate is made possible by four symmetrical pairs of audio/video wires, with each pair capable of 12 Gbps transmission. This latest technology is thus fully capable of not only accommodating existing 4K displays, but is also capable of transmitting 8K and even professional 10K resolution video without any problems. The HDMI AudioQuest PEARL 48 is fully backwards compatible with existing devices and has the required bandwidth for video up to 10K resolution and resolution/refresh rates up to 8K/60 and 4K/120 frames per second. HDMI AudioQuest PEARL 48 supports HDR (High Dynamic Range) and Dynamic HDR. HDR content enhances image contrast with blacker blacks and brighter whites, as well as higher color saturation and brightness. In addition, 4K Ultra-HD content allows for a wider color gamut. This combination of technologies results in a more realistic HDR image with greater perceived depth. Dynamic HDR (such as HDR10+ and Dolby Vision) allows for frame-by-frame HDR optimization versus HDR settings that are fixed for the entire program. The most prominent current HDR formats are HDR10, HDR10+ and Dolby Vision. The AudioQuest PEARL 48 HDMI cable is fully compatible with all types of HDR used by Ultra-HD Blu-ray and all major streaming services including Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Apple TV+ and more, thanks to its 48 Gbps speed.eARC (Extended Audio Return Channel) - The HDMI Audio Return Channel (ARC) sends audio from your TV to your soundbar or AV receiver. However, the ARC return channel has so far only transmitted maximum lossy (compressed) 5.1 channel surround sound. Today's HDMI 2.1 hardware, however, already supports an enhanced eARC audio return channel that dramatically expands digital bandwidth and supports uncompressed and lossless high-resolution multi-channel audio, including Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Atmos, DTS-HD Master Audio and DTS:X. Not only does the new generation of AudioQuest HDMI PEARL 48 cables have the conductors and bandwidth needed for the enhanced audio capabilities of the eARC, but to ensure superior audio performance, the pair of conductors for the audio return channel are internally controlled for direction - routing in the opposite direction than the 4 pairs of conductors that carry data to the TV.. TECHNOLOGY The AudioQuest PEARL 48 8K - 10K, 48 Gbps HDMI cable combines premium materials with superior construction for a superior audiovisual experience. Long Grain Copper (LGC ) Solid Core Conductors: Long Grain Copper (LGC) solid core conductors eliminate fiber-to-fiber interactions and jitter - common sources of interference. Long grains mean a smoother conductor surface and less interaction between material grains. Thus, a smooth conductor surface means fewer problems and better performance as a result. Noise Dissipation is AudioQuest's core technology for effectively dissipating noise and reducing the unwanted effects of high frequency interference. Traditional "100% shielding" may not adequately protect against the increasingly common effects of Wi-Fi and cellular or satellite radiation. With AudioQuest HDMI cables, all 19 conductors are directionally controlled to minimize unwanted RF noise. By "routing" this noise is dispersed by diverting it away from the most vulnerable circuits. Directionality: all audio cables are directional. In any AudioQuest cable, the correct direction depends on the conductors. All signal wires are checked for the correct digital-audio direction, even the wires in the eARC audio return channel are routed in the reverse direction to ensure the best possible performance for the application. Arrows clearly mark the correct direction of use on each cable. The AudioQuest HDMI PEARL 48 cable is available in 0.6 m, 1.0 m, 1.5 m, 2.0 m, 3.0 m and 5.0 m lengths. If you need a longer HDMI cable for your application, AudioQuest also offers active versions of HDMI cables with 18 Gbps transmission speeds that use active equalization technology. These longer active variants guarantee to transmit 100% of the data volume required for all audio/video functions including high-resolution multi-channel audio, 1080p and 4K video, 3D video and Blu-ray, and will transmit 100% of the data required for 120Hz/240Hz/600Hz displays.LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTYAudioQuest HDMI cables are manufactured with the utmost care and guaranteed for high quality and reliability. AudioQuest provides a quality guarantee on HDMI 48 cables, backed by a non-transferable limited lifetime warranty. Proof of original purchase is required to qualify for the warranty and other restrictions apply.
