DVIGear's HDMI ACE™ Active Cable Extender is a dynamic cable equalizer that performs high-speed cable compensation on long DVI and HDMI cables. This unit provides up to 40 dB of insertion loss correction at 825 MHz, which covers every resolution the unit carries: HDTV to 1080p in 8-bit and 12-bit color, and PC resolutions to 1920x1200 and 2048x1080, at data rates up to 2.25 Gbps. The amount of equalization can be automatically adjusted independent of cable length connected, or manually set using a precision 25-turn adjustment. Innovative features such as automatic power detection and high-speed ESD protection further enhance the usefulness of this unit in system applications.

The HDMI ACE™ unit is fully HDMI v1.4 compatible and supports both HDMI Ethernet and Audio Return Channel features. This unit also includes cable fixation points, which allow the connection of locking HDMI cables. When used in conjunction with DVIGear's Super High Resolution™ HDMI and DVI cables, cable lengths of up to 200 ft. (~ 60 meters) are possible. The combination of these products forms active cable assemblies that are fully compliant with HDMI and DVI standards, and which provide superior performance, ruggedness and durability. For longer runs, see our fiber optic extenders.
