The InLine HDMI Superslim cable, type 17555C, is a High-Speed HDMI cable with Ethernet functionality, designed for connecting devices with different HDMI connector types. It connects an HDMI Type A (Standard) plug to an HDMI Type C (Mini) plug, with both plugs being plugs and featuring a straight form factor. The cable has a length of 0.5 m and is finished in black, with gold-plated connector contacts, which enhance conductivity, corrosion resistance, and durability. The plugs are molded, ensuring mechanical stability and improved contact quality.
Applications
This cable is suitable for applications in both home and professional environments, particularly for connecting source devices such as computers, notebooks, streaming players, gaming consoles (e.g. PlayStation, Xbox), Blu-ray players, AV receivers, and cameras to output devices such as UHD Smart TVs, 4K projectors, or gaming monitors. It supports 4K x 2K video (2160p) at up to 60 frames per second, enabling significantly higher resolution than Full HD (1080p). Support for 3D video via HDMI allows the use of 3D content in home cinema and gaming applications. The Audio Return Channel (ARC) function enables audio from a TV with an integrated tuner to be sent back to a surround sound system via the HDMI cable, eliminating the need for a separate audio cable.
Functions and Features in Detail
The cable is designed according to the HDMI 2.0b specification, enabling transmission of Ultra-High-Definition (UHD) and 4K video at up to 60 Hz. It supports up to 32 audio channels and an audio sample rate of up to 1536 kHz, ensuring high audio fidelity and an immersive listening experience. Dynamic synchronization of video and audio streams ensures precise alignment of both signals. Support for Dual-Video Streams allows simultaneous display of content for multiple users on a single screen, as well as simultaneous transmission of multi-channel audio to up to four users. CEC commands (Consumer Electronics Control) enable extended control and operation of consumer electronics devices using a single remote control. The cable is backward compatible with all previous HDMI standard versions.
Technology Explained Simply
The twisted-pair cable construction and high-density three-layer shielding ensure optimal signal quality and minimize electromagnetic interference, which could otherwise cause image disturbances or signal loss. The outer diameter of 3.8 mm makes the cable particularly slim and flexible, enabling easy installation in tight spaces or behind furniture. The copper strands ensure good conductivity for reliable signal transmission. The operating temperature ranges from -10 °C to 60 °C, and the storage temperature from -20 °C to 70 °C, allowing use in a wide range of environments.
Compatibility and Accessories
The cable is designed for devices equipped with HDMI standard connectors, particularly those with Mini-HDMI (Type C) and Standard-HDMI (Type A) ports. It is suitable for applications such as HDTV, PC/notebook, XBOX, PlayStation, Blu-ray DVD/HD-DVD, DC/DV, and projectors. Support for widescreen formats such as 21:9 expands application possibilities in professional video editing and multimedia environments.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by simply plugging the connectors into the corresponding HDMI ports on the devices. The molded connectors and flexible cable construction facilitate placement, especially in tight or hard-to-reach areas. Cable routing is particularly easy and unobtrusive due to the slim diameter.
Operational Advantages
The combination of HDMI 2.0b standard, gold-plated contacts, high-quality shielding, and superslim design ensures a reliable, high-quality, and flexible connection. The integrated Ethernet function reduces the number of required cables, and support for ARC and CEC simplifies control of multi-device setups. High resolution and frame rate are particularly beneficial for 4K content playback, streaming services, and gaming, where smooth motion and low latency are critical.
