Rootbeer 18 Active Optical HDMI Cable
The AudioQuest Root Beer Active Optical HDMI Cable is an active optical cable that provides audio/video and eliminates multiple forms of degradation over distance. It’s powered by the HDMI port, requiring no AC adapter. Further, optical fibers provide total RF immunity and galvanic isolation for the audio/video signal, which are important advantages in the fight against radio-frequency noise. As with TOSLINK and other optical cables, optical fibers do not pick up or transmit induced RF noise. Also, the cable’s eARC and communication conductors are direction-controlled to minimize RF noise that hurts the performance of active circuits.
Like the well-proven Cherry Cola 18, Root Beer 18 is an active optical cable that provides outstanding audio/video performance at distances up to 100ft (30m). Optical Fiber eliminates multiple forms of degradation over distance; powered by the HDMI port, no AC adaptor is required. Further, Optical Fibers provide total RF immunity and galvanic isolation for the audio/video signal—important advantages in the fight against radio-frequency noise. As with Toslink and other optical cables, optical fibers do not pick up or transmit induced RF-Noise.
Additionally, Root Beer’s eARC and communication conductors are Direction-Controlled to minimize RF Noise that hurts the performance of active circuits.
All AudioQuest High-Speed HDMI cables are capable of Ultra-HD 4K/60 or 8K/30 video. Multiple AQ value-added ingredients enable a surprisingly stronger audio/video experience.
