Model UHDX

by

The Tributaries UHDX 18G X-TEND Ultra High Definition HDMI cables were expertly engineered to support 18Gbps for long distance runs. The UHDX is powered by Tributaries’ innovative 18G Go! Active Technology. 18G Go! Active Technology compensates for signal attenuation inherent in copper wires. Each data line is received as an attenuated differential pair. Signal conditioning is performed on the positive and negative inputs and the result is equalized using a built-in test feature in the active electronics. In production each cable is tested and equalization values applied specifically for that cable’s unique attenuation value resulting in consistently reliable 18Gbps UHD HDMI signal transmission. These cables are directional in nature due to active electronics built into the display-end connector. The X-Tend uses a patented power-harvesting technology that only draws 5mA off the HDMI 5V line which allows the Go! Active Technology to be supported without external power supplies and will not draw down the line voltage to ensure signal integrity. That’s why Tributaries guarantees UHDX will provide 18Gbps 4K/60/Deep Color/HDR UHD HDMI signal transmission

The X-Tend Series Active HDMI cable is stocked in each in lengths from 6 meter to 12 meter

Model UHDV

Tributaries UHDV VEGA is an Active Optical (AOC) Hybrid HDMI cable. This is the ultimate solution for running long distances behind walls. VEGA is a marvel of electro-optical engineering combining the best of both worlds, glass and copper. Glass fiber transports the 4 TMDS video/audio/clock and control signals while copper carries the 2-way communication of the EDID and HDCP data. Fiber Optic cable is immune to Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and is capable of sending signals instantly without perceptible signal loss at longer distances than copper; the TMDS information arrives instantly without losing detail. The EDID data is transmitted in pulses, which degrade when passing through long lengths of copper cable effectively slowing the Rise Time for each pulse to a point where the signal fails. Understanding this, Tributaries developed Rise Time Restorative (RTR) Technology, a proprietary electronic circuit designed to preserve the integrity of the DDC Signal. Embedded in the display end connector, RTR Technology provides zero latency in transmitting the crucial DDC signal. VEGA has the patented Power-grip connectors. The display end is terminated with a Micro Type D HDMI connector and a Type D to A Adapter that can be removed for easy installation thru conduit. A handy pulling tool is included in the box. VEGA requires external power only at the display end. A USB power cable and AC power supply are also included.

Tributaries UHDT TITAN 18G HDMI cable is available in a passive version from 6 meters to 10 meters. Why is passive such a big deal? Passive is always preferred over active because of possible incompatibility issues with other electronics. Active cables are directional and will not work if reversed. The active end of the cable will require power to supply the on-board electronics. The power needed is either provided by adding another cable or typically, active cables harvest their power from unused TMDS voltages. This method works well as long as the source which drives the 5V line has an adequate output. If the source voltage is too low it will draw down the vital 5 volt line causing signal failure. Passive cables are bi-directional and voltage agnostic, making any long run installation simpler and more stable. The TITAN passive HDMI cable is a result, in part, of Tributaries’ development and application of patented, advanced metallurgical engineering. This new copper formulation has high-frequency conduction characteristics far beyond standard copper. TITAN’s advanced high-conductivity copper results in lower losses than with standard oxygen-free copper. This design has provided a method of extending the length of an 18G Passive HDMI cable from a previous longest length of 5 meters to the industry’s new, longest length of 10 meters.

The UHDT TITAN series is Tributaries most advanced line of HDMI cables. TITAN’s advanced high-conductivity copper results in lower losses than standard OFC copper. This design has provided a method of extending the length of an 18G HDMI cable beyond what is possible with standard copper. Tributaries active UHDT cables are empowered by a patented TITAN DIGITAL module embedded in the display-end connector. This module is designed to function under HDMI 2.1 with 4 discrete channels each capable of 12Gbps (an aggregate of 48Gbps). Powered by an USB cable, TITAN delivers 3 discrete voltages that work independently of the HDMI source’s 5V supply preventing voltage variations from the source. TITAN is also the first active solution engineered with an 18Gbps DDC accelerator designed for cables longer than 10 meters. TITAN requires external power only at the display end. A USB power cable and AC power supply are included. Tributaries UHDT TITAN will provide guaranteed stable 18Gbps performance from 12 meters to 25 meters.

Model UHDS

by

The UHDS is Tributaries SLIM Series of UHD HDMI cable. The UHDS features a super slim design which makes this cable perfect for hiding in tight places like behind flat panel TVs. The connector is the smallest in the industry about the size of a dime and colored white to easily see in dark spaces. The SLIM is frequently chosen by custom installers when networking multiple systems in home automation control room racks because of its flexibility. All UHDS cables have the patented power-grip connectors to ensure the connector stays put in your electronics and are copper shielded to prevent noise from contaminating the digital signal. Tributaries UHDS SLIM UHD HDMI cables provide accurate 4K 18Gbps digital transmission with Deep Color and High Dynamic Range (HDR).

Model UHDP

by

The UHDP PRO is Tributaries professional level UHD HDMI cable. Designed to provide stable 18Gbps performance, the PRO has 2 different constructions. The shorter lengths are constructed with a smaller gauge that yields a more flexible cable while the longer lengths require larger gauge conductors to support the 18Gbps signal over distance. Both constructions are hybrid in nature; consisting of a base conductor size and a larger conductor to support the more demanding part of the HDMI signal. Each conductor gauge was measured and chosen for its specific job and performance requirement; being careful not to overbuild which would only result in large in-flexible cables. UHDP cables from ½ meter to 3 meter have an elegant woven jacket while the 4 meter and 5 meter cables have a rugged UL rated jacket for installation in the wall. All UHDP cables have patented power-grip connectors to ensure the connector stays put in your electronics and are copper shielded to prevent noise from contaminating the signal. Tributaries UHDP PRO HDMI cables provide accurate 4K 18Gbps digital transmission with Deep Color and High Dynamic Range (HDR).
