As impressive as they may look, gold-plated connectors are not a reliable indicator of quality in cables. Most gold-plated plugs are made of brass, which is plated with bright nickel and a thin layer of gold. Brass and nickel are rather poor conductors that introduce significant loss at the points of contact. Featuring tubular silver-clad OFC contacts and a silicone rubber tension band, which produce the lowest contact resistance available; these state-of-the-art connectors make dramatic improvements in sound and image quality. (U.S. Patent 5,413,503). WireWorld XLR connectors also use nickel-free, silver-clad contacts for superior performance.
This extended-range cable supports the 48Gbps data rate required for next generation 8K/120FPS video. State-of-the-art performance and extreme reliability are achieved with world-class American-made II-VI lasers and German-made Silicon-Line chipsets. OM3 laser-optimized fibers, double thick shielding and Kevlar fiber reinforcements add to the high-end performance and durability. Supports ALL HDMI2.1 features and capabilities, including HDR10+, HDCP2.3, Ethernet, Enhanced ARC, Deep Color. UL-CMP/FT6 Plenum rated for in-wall applications, both residential and commercial.
