Chord Epic 48Gbps Active Optical HDMI Cable Epic HDMI AOC is Chord's highest-performance cable. An optical/copper hybrid with HF noise protection. The copper elements have been uprated for improved mechanical isolation, but the most noticeable difference is the advanced HDMI 2.1 chipset. Epic HDMI AOC is capable of full 8K performance at 60Hz or 4K at 120Hz. While 8K content is still limited it will become more widely available, making this the perfect choice for any installation which doesn’t allow swapping-out cables at a later stage. Epic HDMI AOC guarantees the best results from current 4K sources but with added peace of mind for the next major video upgrade/s down the line. Alongside the upgraded mechanics, picture quality and high frame rate, the optical cables provide better audio performance and are immune to HF noise. HDMI 2.1 can process image quality up to 10K at 60Hz: something that should be of great interest to demanding gamers and virtual reality applications. The HDMI performance standard is one of the fastest-moving in our industry. HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) cables carry high-frequency signals alongside a 5-volt DC electric supply. These complex multi-purpose interconnects tend to be longer than most other cables in a system, with the possible exception of speaker cables. Today’s high-technology house contains many devices producing high-frequency (HF) noise. Cables often act as aerials picking up this noise. Unfortunately, the longer the cable the better aerial it becomes. These unwanted high-frequency signals can penetrate unprotected cables and end up on the signal earth. To preserve these delicate signals, all Chord Company HDMI cables feature high-efficiency HF screening to minimise the noise pick-up.
