AudioQuest Cherry Cola 48 Active Optical HDMI is the top solution for long-lasting HDMI applications that require a full bandwidth of 48Gbps/8K without an external power source. The optical fibre conductors eliminate multiple forms of degradation over distance. To further reduce RF noise, galvanic isolation and a carbon network are added to the A/V conductors and eARC controlled directly. The pair of eARC conductors features solid conductors with 5% silver and level 3 insulation to ensure superior audio performance. AudioQuest's 48Gbps HDMI cables are certified Ultra High Speed by HDMI Licensing, having the necessary bandwidth to support all HDMI-2.1 features. High-speed video resolutions reproduce action sequences with realistic clarity, vibrant colour, and excellent dynamic contrasts.
Available in lengths of 5m, 10m, and 15m, Cherry Cola 48 is the top solution for long-lasting HDMI applications. Regardless of the current need for 4K/120 or 8K/60, Cherry Cola 48 offers superior performance for sources of 10.2Gbps, 18Gbps, and 48Gbps, without requiring an external power source. For longer lengths (20m, 25m, 30m), Cherry Cola 18 continues to provide superior performance with reduced noise. Cherry Cola 18 set the standard that Cherry Cola 48 continues with AudioQuest's level 4+ galvanic isolation. The galvanic isolation provides RF immunity for A/V signals, mass reference plated with silver, all metals controlled directly (including control and power conductors) and noise insulation with a global carbon network. Although eARC is not frequently used in video projector setups, AudioQuest follows an extremist mandate always prepared. Like Cherry Cola 18, Cherry Cola 48 uses silver-plated eARC conductors. And, to simplify installations, Cherry Cola 48 incorporates a Plenum-rated fire-retardant jacket and small connectors.
