Chord Company adds Ethernet to Award Winning SuperShield
The Chord Company has added Ethernet capability plus an optimised audio return connection to its multi-award winning SuperShield HDMI cable. It will come as no surprise that the all new cable is now called: the Chord SuperShield High Speed HDMI cable with Ethernet.
Chord SuperShield High Speed HDMI cable with Ethernet is available in 1, 2 and 3-metre lengths.
New Chord HDMI Active
To follow the success of Chord’s award-winning HDMI Silver Plus, and the recently introduced, performance-on-a-budget HDMI SuperShield, was always going to be an interesting challenge. Chord considers that they have ridden the bucking bronco of performance and have produced a refined thoroughbred that will enhance the viewing pleasure of the enthusiast – the new HDMI Active. Interestingly, the most significant improvements with the HDMI Active are the sound quality of the new cable.
SuperShield – Chord’s new budget HDMI cable available now
Chord’s new and extremely pretty SuperShield HDMI is available now.
It’s targeted at the entry-level end of the specialist market where the performance:price ratio is absolutely critical.
But entry-level at Chord is just an expression that means a greater challenge
The SuperShield is HDMI 1.3b certified.
It uses 26awg oxygen free copper conductors for high conductivity, and low density gas filled polyethylene insulation for its excellent dielectric properties.
Each of the pairs of conductors are protected by a dual-foil shield, and the overall cable is additionally shielded by a foil and a high density braid, effective to high frequencies in traditional Chord fashion.
Gold-plated connectors, soldered with Chord’s chosen lead-free solder, help to achieve the best performance and complete the package of an extremely cost effective HDMI cable for the new world economy.
