Monster has announced that its new line of HDMI cables now features higher speed, longer length cables (up to 75-feet), and offers the industry’s highest speed ratings, including three high performance levels at 14.3 Gbps (Monster Advanced High Speed), 15.8 Gbps (Monster Ultra High Speed) and 17.8 Gbps (Ultimate High Speed). Monster’s longer-length, increased-performance HDMI cables provide custom installation professionals with the advanced connectivity solutions they need to ensure customers that their cables will deliver maximum picture and sound quality when used with any of today’s and tomorrow’s advanced high definition home entertainment components.
Noel Lee, the Head Monster, noted: “The current HDMI specification recognizes 3D technology, wider color palettes and higher pixel density 4K displays, all advancements that will greatly impact data rate and cable bandwidth requirements. Today’s new Monster Advanced cables for HDMI cables have the bandwidth to deliver the capabilities of these new technologies simultaneously. So when future components demand an even larger -˜data pipe’ they will be ready if they have a Monster HDMI cable. It’s not a matter of if there will be higher data rates, but when. To meet higher bandwidth needs, Monster has increased the performance of our speed-rated HDMI cables, removing the fear of obsolescence. Simplay speed verification for our speed-rated HDMI cables is yet another indication of Monster’s leading edge technological prowess and our commitment to providing our customers with unmatched connectivity solutions, now and in the future.”
