At CEDIA EXPO 2010, BTX will showcase what is says is the industry’s first HDMI cable-mount male connector that can be terminated in the field.
The device allows installers to create quickly and easily custom-length HDMI assemblies of up to 39 feet at resolutions of 1080p, 12-bit deep color, the company claims.
For A/V, home theater, digital signage, or any other application requiring HDMI, the device resolves the issue of fitting a connector through conduit, and eliminates excess cable behind the rack or inside a wall.
Compatible with HDMI 1.4, the connector is terminated through an insulation displacement connection (IDC) process, which provides an extremely secure and reliable connection, only requires a blade and an HDMI hand tool, and can easily be accomplished with minimal training or skill, the company says.
