HDMI and cables have had a lot of industry noise for many years now. HDMI changed the way they refer to cables and the specification number (that pesky 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 number) is now a non-issue with cables. Instead the cables are categorized by their data throughput and features. No cable should ever be called a "1.3 cable" or a "1.4 cable".

The ability to easily field terminate cables has long been a shortcoming of HDMI for the AV integrator. Often times installers simply cannot determine the exact cable length requirements until time of installation. They are forced to pay more for longer length cables than actually required and then must find creative ways to conceal excess cable slack. Liberty has addressed this issue with the release of the HD Termination System...

A balun is a small transformer which converts an audio or video signal from unbalanced to balanced and vice versa (hence the term "bal*un"). In all fairness, however, not all baluns are true "baluns;" the term balun has become a synonymous with any device which transmits audio and video over structured cabling.

Understanding HDMI cable specifications can be confusing. Without an adequate understanding of the common terms, it is nearly impossible to compare one cable to another or determine if a particular cable will support the video resolution that your application requires.

It's become a tradition for Arizona Cardinals' Wide Receiver Larry Fitzgerald to honor his mother during breast cancer awareness month. This year, "#ThinkPink" is his motto on Twitter - and he is also backing up his words with his wallet: $1000 per reception and $10,000 per Touchdown for all 4 games in October. If you aren't a fan of the Cardinals, you should become a fan of Larry Fitzgerald...
