Snap One today announced the introduction of its new line of Binary BX 8K Active HDMI Cables, designed to support 8K UHD at 60Hz 4:2:0 and up to 10K at 30 Hz 4:4:4. They also display 4K at 120Hz and 4K at 60Hz 4:4:4 and handle transmission speeds up to 48Gbps. The new line of Binary BX 8K Active Cables pass Dolby ATMOS, DTS-X and HDMI 3D. The cables are designed with zinc alloy connectors, pull and bend strength and GripTek on the connectors.

Without the need for external power, Snap One says the new active cables create a simpler install. The “gripping” design means 8 pounds of pull force is needed to remove the cable from the HDMI port. All Binary HDMI cables also feature an ultra-pliable jacket that ensures flexibility with a tighter bend radius and a low-profile connector that can save valuable space behind equipment. Each active connector head also features high-performance micro-electronics to automatically monitor and protect signals to ensure reliable transmission.
