Fibre optic cable brand Vivify introduces the Xenos W35, an 8K HDMI active fibre optic cable that boasts 48Gbps speeds.
The cable measures up to 15ft/5M in length without the need for an additional USB power dongle. It is also certified to withstand a crushing force of 450kgf, and is resistant to high temperatures up to 85˚C and 90% humidity levels.
All this on top of the advantages of active fibre optic cables of being lighter, flexible, and more durable, fibre optic offers a more stable lossless signal, unaffected by electromagnetic interferences (EMI).
The Xenos W35 supports the latest standards for connectivity.
With eARC, Xenos W35’s HDMI connection can be plugged directly into a TV and send uncompressed and high-resolution audio to a soundbar, receiver, or amplifier directly from the eARC port.
The new HDMI standard also brings in the support for Dynamic HDR to ensure videos are displayed at ideal values for depth, detail, brightness, contrast, and wider colour gamut.
For gaming consoles such as PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, the W35 supports the auto low-latency mode (ALLM) and variable refresh rates (VRR) technology for a fluid 8k 60Hz and 4K 120Hz gameplay—all while reducing screen tearing and frame stutter.
Taking advantage of strict testing methods, each cable is tested to ensure that all usage scenarios are covered. The quality control process includes testing for the cable’s wrenching strength, accidental pull out, cable flex, signal quality, and compatibility, extreme environment, crush resistance, plug and play, and insert and withdrawal force.
The Xenos W35 is currently available for pre-order at US$42 ($61) (15ft/4.5M), US$57 ($83) (32ft/10M), and US$72 ($105) (50ft/15M). In addition, users can request customisable lengths for the Xenos W35, up to 164ft/50M.
