Know before you buy
The detachable Micro HDMI ends allow you to pull the thin cable through narrow conduits, tight wall spaces, or ceiling mounts with ease. Once the cable is routed, you simply attach the standard HDMI connectors to complete the installation.
No, the cable is designed for plug-and-play operation. It draws the minimal power required (0.23W) directly from the HDMI source device's 5V pin.
A plenum rating (UL CMP-OF) means the cable jacket is constructed from materials that meet strict fire safety standards for use in air-handling spaces, such as above drop ceilings or below raised floors. It is a necessary safety requirement for many professional and commercial building codes.
Yes, this cable supports 4K UHD resolutions up to 3840x2160 at 30Hz. It is an ideal solution for maintaining high-quality signal integrity over long distances where standard copper cables would typically fail.
By using fiber-optic strands for data transmission, this cable is immune to electromagnetic (EMI) and radio frequency (RFI) interference. This ensures a pristine, stable image even when running the cable near power lines or other electronic equipment.
Yes, the Javelin cable supports all standard HDMI and DVI resolutions. You can use it with DVI-equipped hardware provided you use a standard HDMI-to-DVI adapter at the connection points.
