The VHC00023 features a standard female HDMI type-A connector on one side and PC tails on other side, for termination to wire or a PC board. “Our waterproof HDMI cables and coupler offer a perfect solution for our customers who require HDMI connectivity in harsh environments, often found in industrial computing and display applications,” said product manager Brian Gates. Make the best of what you have CableLabs has published two new specifications, said to “dramatically increase” the capacity of the fiber access network with point-to-point coherent optics technology and allowing for 100Gb/s per wavelength. Using amplitude, phase and polarization to enable higher fiber capacities, coherent optics can help to improve streaming, video conferencing, file uploads and downloads, and future usage needs for technologies such as virtual and augmented reality.

assemblies for use in industrial computing, digital signage, factory automation, medical and harsh environment A/V applications. The IP67-rated HDMI cables feature a waterproof coupling that allows the connectors to survive harsh environments by preventing the ingress of water and fine particulates, such as dust, that would typically debilitate standard HDMI connectors.

The cables have rugged molded backshells and gold plated contacts to withstand repeated mating cycles. In addition to the new waterproof HDMI cables, L-com has released a new IP67 rated HDMI panel-mount coupler that can be used with the cable assemblies.

Gaining more capacity from existing fibers reduces the need to lay more.

The new specifications are designed to allow multiple system operators to use existing infrastructure to withstand growth in capacity demands and services for
