HDMI cable technology- redefining High Definition broadcast

One of the most important media used for broadcasting high definition audio/video stream on a multimedia device is an HDMI cable. HDMI stands for High-Definition Multimedia Interface which is used as a digital alternative to traditional analog standard broadcasts. Traditionally used analog broadcast signals correspond to Radio Frequency, VGA, composite video, SCART component video, etc.

HDMI cable interface is most useful when used with digital audio/video devices including gaming consoles such as PS3 and Xbox 360 as well as Blu-Ray players and set top boxes. HDMI cable supports single cable interface as well as any major PC/TV video format. Best use of HDMI cable is observed with high-definition video with up to eight digital audio channels. A complementary CEC connection is used with HDMI cable to implement a mutual control system that allows consumer to operate multiple multimedia devices with the same remote control.

One of the best features of HDMI technology includes full compatibility with Digital Video Interface signal that eliminates the need of any kind of conversion. No significant loss of video quality is observed when you convert DVI format stream into an HDMI stream using compatible adapter.

In a standard female HDMI plug found in desktop computers and high-end TVs, there are 19 pins. Data signal operated by HDMI cable is of bandwidth 10.2 Gbit/s with up to 1600p video signal support. Even higher resolution video is supported if consumer requires it.
