Designed in partnership with Pixelgen - an engineering and design house from Burlington, Canada, specializing in video connectivity and processing products - the THX Interconnect HDMI 2.1b cables are specific and built to the highest industry audio video standards to deliver uncompressed signals at maximum speeds that are ideal for the next generation of displays, game consoles, and speaker setups in the living room, in home theater and for any set up to enjoy entertainment through modern digital devices.
"Cables are essential for fidelity. When it comes to home theaters, a last thought might be the cable connections, but the reality is that until you have robust, reliable, highly compatible and flexible cable connection you won't get the best fidelity out of your equipment, no matter how high end it is," explains Jack MacDougall, chief executive officer of Pixelgen Design. "We have solved that for you and are proud to offer this family of products to meet most every home theater size and configuration. This will be one investment in your home theater that you can count on for years to come."
The THX Interconnect HDMI cables come in a variety of lengths ranging from 0.5m (1.64 ft) up to 15m (49.2 ft) while keeping an ultra-thin and flexible size. For sizes starting at 7.6m and longer, PXLGLASS Hybrid Fiber/Copper technology adds robustness and flexibility to accommodate any home theater layout and design. Prices range from USD$39.00 to $399.00. All sizes are available for orders now, and packaging of all lengths ships in recyclable packaging. The longer length cables ship in a collector’s item film tin for home theater and cinema aficionados to add to their collections.
According to THX, the cables are specified for transmission of 100% uncompressed high-speed signals up to 8K-10K up to 48Gbps, according to the HDMI 2.1b protocol. Support for additional functionality includes Enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC), Consumer Electronics Control (CEC), Dynamic HDR (High Dynamic Range), HDCP (High bandwidth Digital Content Protection) 2.X as well as all new gaming-centric features such as VRR (Variable Refresh Rate), QMS (Quick Media Switching), ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode), and QFT (Quick Frame Transport).
These cables have also obtained Ultra High Speed HDMI Cable Certification (HDMI 2.1b Category 3 for Optical lengths) and each cable ships with a scannable official UHD label affixed to packaging. Of course, these cables also meet the highest THX standards which include maximized 8K-10K HDMI equipment interoperability, in-system reliability, stringent fitness-to-application testing, hot-plugging, power sequencing and time-lapsed pixel error testing.
All cables were specified to use the smallest cable diameter possible, ensuring minimal bend radius and encouraging maximum flexibility without compromising reliable signal delivery. Home theater enthusiasts, custom installers and distributors looking for more information on the THX Interconnect cables details and to order, are invited to reach out to either Pixelgen or THX.
