VizionWare, a Texas-based audio and video digital interconnect manufacturer, is pleased to announce Hi-Wirez revolutionary active HDMI cables 10 meter has been chosen as a 2006 Multi-Room Audio/Video (MRAV) Award winner. Hi-Wirez 10 meter was chosen in the No New Wires Transmission Technology Category. Sponsored by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) and held in conjunction with Electronic House Expo Fall 2006, the MRAV awards recognize significant contributions to the multi-room audio and video market. The awards were announced during EHX Fall 2006, November 14-17, 2006 at the Long Beach Convention Center in Long Beach, Calif. In recognition of the honor, Hi-Wirez will be featured in the December issue of CE Pro. “We are thrilled to be chosen for this prestigious award,” said Ben Jamison, vice president of Sales and Marketing for VizionWare. “Hi-Wirez is an amazing product that demonstrates exceptional video performance and installation flexibility. We were excited to have shared this cutting-edge technology with audiences at EHX Fall 2006.” Hi-Wirez cables feature numerous innovative and proprietary technologies such as Image Enhancing Circuitry, Signal Balancing, Digital Signal Processing, Enhanced Transmission Technology and Optimal Spectral DiffusionÔ. The combination of these technologies with unique manufacturing materials and processes has resulted in superior video quality cables that are lighter and more flexible. Hi-Wirez HDMI interconnect cables are available in 1 meter, 2 meter, 5 meter, 7 meter, 10 meter and 15 meter lengths. A Quick Overview of Hi-Wirez Technology and Benefits: They are lighter and less bulky, making them easier to handle and install. Do not degrade the signal, regardless of their length and thus do not require signal repeaters or boosters. Are constructed with a patent-pending material that rejects electromagnetic interference (EMI), reducing interference with other wired and wireless connections and minimizing the need for bulky, inflexible shielding. Incorporates – embedded in the cables themselves – patent-pending custom chip technology, which delivers theater-quality images regardless of cable length. Utilizes sophisticated signal balancing circuit techniques which eliminate the “pixelation” and reach limitation of existing cable technology, providing unsurpassed viewing clarity. Incorporates a digital signal processing technique added to the cable through an innovative manufacturing process, resulting in a reduction of the detrimental impact of incoming signals on subsequent ones, providing for a richer viewing and listening experience – again, regardless of cable length. Minimizes signal coupling into shielded structures and device impedance mismatches, resulting in higher quality images delivered over longer distances at resolutions up to and including 1080p.
