Audio & Data Specifications
- HDMI Ethernet Channel (HEC): Integrates a dedicated 100 Mbps data channel into the HDMI link, allowing internet-sharing between connected devices without a separate LAN cable.
- Audio Return Channel (ARC): Allows a TV to send audio data “upstream” to an AV receiver or soundbar, eliminating a separate optical audio cable.
- Audio Format Support: Supports uncompressed audio (LPCM) and compressed high-definition audio formats including Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio, and Dolby Digital Plus.
Physical & Material Specifications
At 20 meters, the construction of the cable determines whether the signal will actually reach the display. A standard spec sheet for this length typically includes:
- Conductor Gauge: Usually 24 AWG or 26 AWG (American Wire Gauge). Note: Lower AWG means thicker copper wires, which are mandatory at 20m to reduce signal resistance.
- Shielding: Triple-shielded (Aluminium foil + Mylar + Braiding) to prevent electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI) over the long run.
- Connectors: 24k Gold-plated Type-A male connectors to resist corrosion and ensure maximum signal transfer.
- Jacket Rating: Typically PVC, but high-quality long cables often feature a CL2 or CL3 rating, meaning the jacket is fire-resistant and certified safe for in-wall installation.
