The main differences between HDMI1.2 & 1.3 Higher Speed: HDMI1.2 only supports 4.96Gbps. HDMI1.3 increases it's single-link bandwidth to 340MHz (10.2Gbps) to support the demands of HD display devices Deep Color: HDMI 1.2 only supports 24-bit color depths; HDMI 1.3 supports 30-bit, 36 –bit, and 48-bit RGB or YCbCr for stunning rendering of over one billion colors in unprecedented detail. See table at bottom of this page to learn more. Did you know HDMI cables have now been categorised into 2 different types? High Speed and Normal speed. No longer are we (or anyone else) required to state cables are 1.3, 1.3b etc. They are simply High Speed - up to 10.2Gbps and Normal Speed - up to 4.96Gbps. You are not paying for packaging. Many will tell you their cables are cheap because packaging is expensive, well we're here to tell you it's not expensive. When we order over 3,000 cables at a time, packaging is less than 2.5% of the overall cost.
TESTING: For the first time ever, we thought it essential to show you the difference in image quality when comparing standard copper HDMI Vs our Silver Plated HDMI cables. What we have done here is take screen shots of the same image using the two difference cables. What did we notice? White levels and overall brightness increases when you use a silver plated HDMI cable. This is because the silver plating carries the bitstream signal more intact than standard tin plated copper HDMI cables. Fact! The differences on your monitor may not be that great. But when you consider how much you've just spend on your LCD TV or Projector, you want your equipment to perform to it's fullest. Future proof your setup and avoid doing two cable runs!   This is a fine example of what you can expect as far as whites and brightness levels go. The left side of this image is our Silver Cinema Series cable, the right side is a standard copper 1.3 HDMI cable. There is absolutely no trick photography here. The only alterations are cropping as this was a very large image showing the entire test pattern. This shot is from the bottom left corner and is called 'above video white'. Things to note are the increase in brightness and the reduction in image noise. There will always be less noise using silver plated copper because the information travels through the cable with virtually no loss at all. The standard copper cable is suffering from a loss of those 'ones and zeros' which can create some nasty on screen artifacts. Here is the same image but showing the colour bars. The top image is a HS cable with Silver Plated Copper, the bottom image is a standard Tin Plated Copper cable. This is actual proof that silver plating provides a brighter image. All colours are brighter not just the whites. Next time someone tells you there is no difference tell them to visit High Speed Cables at www.hscables.com.au Some will say 'yes it's brighter, but do you really need it?' Well, yes, when you add up all these incremental improvements, such as projector/tv calibration to D6500K, a great screen fabric, jet black velour surround, Silver Plated HDMI cables and a decent DVD player that does not clip whites or crush blacks. All these improvements can add up to a greatly improved image, and a great image is something we are all striving for. The better the image, the more enjoyable it is to watch.
Nov 1, 2008 HIGH SPEED AND STANDARD SPEED: HDMI Licensing recently introduced new labelling guidelines relating to this issue. Over the coming several months the most reputable HDMI cable manufacturers (ie: the licensed ones) will follow these guidlines by labelling cables as either "Standard" or "High Speed". Both are part of the 1.3 specification, so please don't assume that all HDMI 1.3 cables are equal. "Standard" referes to cables that are certified to pass SD and broadcast HD (720p/1080i) as a minimum, but may in some cases also pass 1080p by application only (refer to the manufacturers' disclosures), but this is not required for certification. "High Speed" on the other hand will pass the full potential of HDMI 1.3 with full 1080p, Deep colour and the new HD Audio formats etc. So why have two levels you ask? Surely this just confuses the market... Well, suggesting that there should be just one level - the top one - is like suggesting that all Holdens and Fords should be abolished, and that everybody should buy Mercedes Benz and BMW instead. ...this of course is just not going to happen. You only need High Speed HDMI if you have a top-end system with genuine 1080p. Source HDMI Australia website. www.hdmi.com.au Are silver plated cables better? This is a very common question, and the answer is YES! Silver is the BEST conductor of all, and it's use in the plating of copper produces an exceptional yet relatively economical performer. Silver Plated Copper (or SPC) provides a purer signal, whilst adding the structural integrity in much the same way as tin does in the TC version. "...but it's all digital - 1's and 0's", I hear you say! Yes, it is, but billions of 1's and 0's are called data bits. In many cables these data bits can change order, change amplitude or drop out entirely. This is known as digital jitter. Silver plating transmits the digital bitstream more intact than TC, reducing digital jitter and increasing performance.

Why use our High Speed Cables? 1. Our supplier has passed HDMI1.3 testing by HDMI ATC. 2. Our manufacturer has it's own testing Lab with advanced and very expensive testing equipment to test our cables electrical parameters, including attenuation, impedance, crosstalk and EM and RF interference, which assure the HDMI1.3 cables reach HDMI1.3 specification 100%. 3. You may purchase “HDMI1.3” cables at a lower price and it may be “good enough” to meet your demands... However, can it can reach 10.2Gbps and 48-bit color depth to meet your demands for 1080P and Blu Ray? Here at High Speed we use a low-loss dielectric special shield to assure the HDMI cable’s high bandwidth signal. Combined with SPC (Silver Plated Copper) you will be very hard pressed to find a better cable. Lastly, High Speed Cables will never pass a 1.2 HDMI cable as a 1.3 cable, unlike many others.

CEC capacitance limits changed sRGB video quantization range clarification CEC commands for timer control brought back in an altered form, audio control commands added. Concurrently released compliance test specification included. HDMI 1.3b Released March 26th 2007 HDMI compliance testing revisions. Has no effect on HDMI features or functions since the testing is for products based on the HDMI 1.3a specification. HDMI 1.3b1 Released Novemeber 9th 2007 HDMI compliance testing revisions which added testing requirements for HDMI Type C mini-connector. Has no effect on HDMI features or functions since the testing is for products based on the HDMI 1.3a specification.
