The HDMI Advantage

HDMI technology is the global standard for connecting high-definition products: the uncompressed, all-digital interface that delivers both dazzling quality and unmatched ease of use. Over 1,000 manufacturers now incorporate HDMI connectivity into a growing list of consumer products:

  • HDTVs
  • Blu-ray Disc players
  • multimedia PCs
  • gaming systems
  • digital cameras and camcorders
  • mobile devices and more.

It’s the one cable that transmits digital video, digital audio, and control data through a single high-speed link, making it the best and easiest way to turn your TV into a home entertainment powerhouse.

Simplicity

  • Transmits all formats of digital audio and video through a single cable, replacing as many as thirteen older cables and eliminating clutter.
  • Makes it simple to hook up other devices to your home theater system. PCs, gaming consoles, and video cameras can all be connected with the same one-plug convenience.
  • Makes it easy to install or upgrade an all-digital home entertainment system. All HDMI versions are backward-compatible with previous versions.

Performance

  • Enormous bandwidth capacity – up to 10.2 gigabits per second, more than twice the bandwidth needed to transmit an uncompressed 1080p signal.
    • Better looking movies
    • Faster gaming
    • Richer audio
  • Future-ready for emerging technologies.
    • 3D movies and gaming
    • Higher resolutions, like 1440p or Quad HD
    • Faster refresh rates, like 120Hz.
    • Deep Color, taking the HDTV palette from millions to trillions of colors.

Intelligence

  • HDMI is a "smart" two-way connection that allows devices to communicate and interact with each other to dramatically improve your home theater experience.
  • Devices connected with HDMI have the ability to scan each other’s capabilities and automatically configure certain settings. An HDTV and a DVD player, for example, can auto-negotiate settings like resolution and aspect ratio to correctly match the format of the incoming content to the highest capabilities of the TV.
  • Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) provides for integrated, "one-touch" commands across multiple linked components. When enabled by the manufacturer, CEC allows system-wide behaviors like one-touch play or one-touch record, where pressing a single button on your remote launches a series of coordinated commands.
