Tributaries UHDV VEGA is an Active Optical (AOC) Hybrid HDMI cable. This is the ultimate solution for running long distances behind walls. VEGA is a marvel of electro-optical engineering combining the best of both worlds, glass and copper. Glass fiber transports the 4 TMDS video/audio/clock and control signals while copper carries the 2-way communication of the EDID and HDCP data. Fiber Optic cable is immune to Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and is capable of sending signals instantly without perceptible signal loss at longer distances than copper; the TMDS information arrives instantly without losing detail. The EDID data is transmitted in pulses, which degrade when passing through long lengths of copper cable effectively slowing the Rise Time for each pulse to a point where the signal fails. Understanding this, Tributaries developed Rise Time Restorative (RTR) Technology, a proprietary electronic circuit designed to preserve the integrity of the DDC Signal. Embedded in the display end connector, RTR Technology provides zero latency in transmitting the crucial DDC signal. VEGA has the patented Power-grip connectors. The display end is terminated with a Micro Type D HDMI connector and a Type D to A Adapter that can be removed for easy installation thru conduit. A handy pulling tool is included in the box. VEGA requires external power only at the display end. A USB power cable and AC power supply are also included.
The UHDV VEGA Series Active HDMI cable is stocked in each in lengths from 10 meter to 50 meter
