Honeywell Tester Verifies HDMI Cables & DVI Cable Assemblies

September 11, 2007

Honeywell announced a new cable tester that allows CE Installers to instantly verify the performance of HDMI cables and DVI cable assemblies. Compact and easy-to-use, the plug-in tester sends controlled signals through all 19 conductors within the HDMI interface. Its nine LEDs illuminate one-by-one as each of the HDMI cable's nine discrete functions are confirmed. If any LED fails to light, the cable is defective and must be replaced. "HDMI cable's copper wiring is prone to breakage during installation when it is subjected to tight bends or excessive stretching," said David Coleman, Program Manager-CE Cable Products at Honeywell. "Our tester assures the installer on-site that an HDMI cable's circuits and connections are 100 percent operational, reducing expensive callbacks and customer dissatisfaction." The tester is immediately available. For more information, call (800) 222-0060, or visit www.honeywellcable.com
