Cable Matters 300021-UPC

Product Information

Projects 8.4 in. (213 mm) from the side of the FlipTop chassis beneath the table, and requires an additional 0.2 in. (5 mm) for installation This is a cable a bit, unlike the previous two. First off, it is the shortest of the three and has an entirely different retraction method. You still get full #D and 4K video support as well as the usual audio return channel function. Of course, you get the Ethernet over HDMI ability as well, so as far as HDMI features are concerned, all three are on par with one another. The following 4K compatible cables offered feature a minimum TMDS bandwidth of 18 Gbps to support ultra high-definition digital video signals up to 4K60 4:4:4. Active circuitry is employed for optimal performance. The retractor mechanism allows for a compact design that is ideal for applications where vertical clearance is limited beneath the table. FT2A‑CBLR‑1T‑USB: USB 2.0 cable USB Type-A male to USB Type-B male under the table to support connection to a codec or extender.

These three cables all have their strengths and weaknesses. Each of them can retract and extend, making them great for saving space and portability. They also all have full 4k and 3D video support along with Ethernet over HDMI. These features are phenomenal and would have been a deal-breaker if one of them didn’t include them. So with all of those features in common, how can you choose between these three great cables? retractable HDMI cable reel 25' foot HDMI cable reel -- Call for optional longer pigtails (non retracting side)Additional models are available to support analog and data signals. These cable retractors are passive.

Their retractable HDMI cable was made with that same thought process. This is a cable meant to be tangle-free. You can pull on both ends of the cable to extend it outward though you should never pull from just one side. Pulling from only a single side will put an imbalance of stress on the internal mechanisms and can cause you to get a lower lifespan out of it. Module requires two consecutive module spaces in the middle of any module row within the FlipTop chassis (refer to the relevant FT2A-CBLR-BRKT model spec sheet for additional details); Automate one-touch retractors by connecting the retractors in a FlipTop to a control system and a switch or to a DMPS via a single Cresnet cable. Custom programming can trigger all the cables to retract after five minutes of no video being detected.All retractable cabling has a specific retraction force that can have an impact on what you can use the cable for. Retractable cables are primarily for cable management purposes. You buy a retractable cable because you want to run your devices together without having to deal with excess cabling. If you decide to plug your monitor in via retractable HDMI, you want to make sure that the cable is both long enough and does not have enough retraction force to pull your monitor out of place. Also, to ensure your cable and ports last long, you want to make sure the force applied to your ports is not overwhelming or at odd angles. Cable Type & Application

Like the Cable Matters HDMI, this has the same shell-like design. The exposed cable at the outer edges of the central body opens the potential for tangling. Fully extended, the Tera Grand HDMI cable reaches 4.25 feet. Again, due to the similar design, you are advised against pulling on just a single end of the cable. That way you can avoid breaking the coil in the central housing. Fully retracted, this cable has a length of under six inches and thus is very portable. Other Considerations models available to convert from DisplayPort™ to HDMI® connectivity, Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort, Mini DisplayPort to HDMI, and USB-C® to HDMI connectivity One primary consideration is this cable’s ability to tangle. The other two retractable cords stored the cable itself in a central housing to prevent tangling. This HDMI cable opted for a traditional coiling function, and so tangling is a real concern. When you store a coiled cable with other cables, it is almost inevitable that another cable will interlink with the loops of the coil. Another matter is the length. Coming in at around 1.5 feet makes this cable nearly one third the range of the Tera Grand HDMI. If you only need a cable for a short-range, then it will work perfectly and has some of the highest quality ends out of all three, but having the option to extend beyond 1.5 feet would be nice. Choosing Between 3 Great Retractable HDMI CablesChoosing the right cabling to cater to your needs is a more significant decision than most people credit it as. Cables come in various degrees of quality and performance. When you add in the element of a cable being retractable, it adds additional factors that must be considered.

Standard HDMI cables are perfectly capable of handling high definition content such as 720p or 1080p video. That means if you have no intention of going beyond 1080p, then there is no need to look at higher-performing cables. Once you decide you want to go beyond HD, you have to make the hump to High-Speed HDMI cables. The data transfer speeds allow the wires to support higher resolution than a Standard HDMI. That means for 4k or 3D viewing and a much higher quality color palette, High-Speed HDMI is required. Durability and Warranty FT2A‑CBLR‑1T‑4K‑MDP‑HD: Cable with a male Mini DisplayPort connector at the source end above the table and a male HDMI Type A connector at the sink end below the table; converts Mini DisplayPort to HDMI to allow connection of a Mini DisplayPort source to an HDMI input. 1
