All about the product
PEARL 48 HDMI cable with speeds up to 48 Gbps and bandwidth for 10K resolution video. The next generation HDMI 48 cables are fully compatible with the latest hardware featuring HDMI 2.1 connectors. These latest devices require higher bandwidth and data transfer speeds than existing HDMI cables of versions 1.4 and 2.0 allow. However, the HDMI PEARL 48 is also compatible with all previous versions, making it suitable for older 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 Copper) conductors. eARC audio return channel with support for Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Atmos, DTS-HD Master Audio, and DTS:X. Effective noise and high-frequency interference cancellation system. Grounding – tinned copper. All cables are directionally controlled. The AudioQuest PEARL 48 HDMI cable can transmit up to professional 10K Ultra-HD video. The impressive 48 Gbps data transfer rate is enabled by four symmetrical audio/video cable pairs, each capable of transmitting 12 Gbps. Thus, this latest technology can not only adapt to existing 4K displays but also transmit 8K and even professional 10K resolution video without any issues. The HDMI AudioQuest PEARL 48 is fully 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 video contrast with darker blacks and brighter whites, as well as greater color saturation and brightness. Additionally, 4K Ultra-HD content allows for a wider color gamut. This combination of technologies results in a more realistic HDR image and greater perceived depth. Dynamic HDR (e.g., HDR10+ and Dolby Vision) allows for HDR optimization frame by frame, compared to HDR settings that are fixed for the entire program. Currently, the brightest 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, due to its 48 Gbps speed. eARC (enhanced audio return channel) – HDMI audio return channel (ARC) sends audio from your TV to a soundbar or AV receiver. However, until now, the ARC return channel only transmitted the maximum lossy (compressed) 5.1 channel surround sound. However, today's HDMI 2.1 hardware already supports the enhanced eARC audio return channel, which significantly 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. The next generation AudioQuest HDMI PEARL 48 cables not only have the conductors and bandwidth needed for enhanced eARC audio capabilities but also ensure excellent audio performance, with the audio return channel cable pair internally controlled directionally – directed opposite to the 4 cable pairs that transmit data to the TV. TECHNOLOGY AudioQuest PEARL 48 8K – 10K, 48 Gbps HDMI cable combines premium materials and excellent construction to ensure a great audio and video experience. Long Grain Copper (LGC) solid core conductors: Long Grain Copper (LGC) solid core conductors eliminate fiber interaction and vibration – common sources of interference. Long grains mean a smoother conductor surface and less material grain interaction. As a result, a smooth conductor surface means fewer problems and better performance. Noise dissipation is a core AudioQuest technology designed to effectively disperse noise and reduce unwanted high-frequency interference. Traditional "100% shielding" may not adequately protect against the increasingly common effects of Wi-Fi and cellular or satellite radiation. Using AudioQuest HDMI cables, all 19 conductors are directionally controlled to minimize unwanted RF noise. By "routing" this noise, it is dispersed by directing it away from the most vulnerable circuits. Direction: all audio cables are directional. In any AudioQuest cable, the correct direction depends on the conductors. It is checked that all signal wires conform to the correct digital audio direction, even the eARC audio return channel wires are directed in the opposite direction to ensure optimal application performance. Arrows clearly indicate the correct direction of use for each cable. The AudioQuest HDMI PEARL 48 cable is available in lengths of 0.6 m, 1.0 m, 1.5 m, 2.0 m, 3.0 m, and 5.0 m. If your application requires a longer HDMI cable, AudioQuest also offers active HDMI cable versions with 18 Gbps transmission speed using active equalization technology. These longer active variants guarantee 100% of the data required for all audio/video functions, including high-resolution multi-channel audio, 1080p and 4K video, 3D video, and Blu-ray transmission, and will transmit 100% of the data required for 120Hz/240Hz/600Hz displays. LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY AudioQuest HDMI cables are manufactured with extreme care and guarantee high quality and reliability. AudioQuest provides a quality guarantee for HDMI 48 cables, which comes with a non-transferable limited lifetime warranty. Proof of original purchase is required for the warranty, and other restrictions apply.
