Atlas Cables

Passive HDMI cables have a natural limitation, that being the attenuation characteristics of the base cable. Once the optimum length has been exceeded an exponential increase in data errors occur. Typically we consider around 8-10m is the maximum length for a passive HDMI cable, under the less-demanding HDMI 1.4a specification (lower resolution & bandwidth than the newer HDMI 2.0 requirements). To meet the more stringent performance requirements (ultra high resolution & wide bandwith) of HDMI 2.0, Atlas has implemented ‘Active’ HDMI technology. Sophisticated electronics are built into the ‘Display’ end of the cable, which effectively extends the operational performance of longer cables. This adaptive technology is used effectively to keep the cable’s outside diameter to a reasonable size whilst extending the length of the cable. The ‘Active’ Hyper 4K HDMI is available in 10, 12 and 15m lengths with no loss of performance. Coupled with our installation grade precision connectors, Hyper is superbly suited to ‘high-end’ video installations. As you’d expect given our passion for audio, the Hyper 4k HDMI is designed to give optimum sound qualty. Atlas’ expertise in world-class digital audio interconnects means ‘jitter’ (signal-degrading digital ‘noise’) is kept to extremely low levels.

The Atlas Ascent Ultra 75 Ohm SP-DIF digital cable is a superb cable which gives a considerable insight into the state-of-the-art performance of our ‘high-end’ Mavros interconnect at a very reasonable price. Ascent was designed to be technically and sonically superior to competing digital cables currently available at similar prices.Designed to maintain a true 75 Ohm impedance.The central conductor is made from OCC copper which is insulated by an extremely low-loss PEF (Foamed Polyethylene) dielectric. The tightly woven wire mesh together with an aluminium outer foil provides 100% rejection of RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) ensuring the music signal is free from any external noise. The cable is covered by a soft PVC sleeve and finished in a grey woven fabric.The Ascent digital cable is terminated with our cold-weld connected wideband Ultra RCA plugs. The result is a smooth, uninterrupted signal path which behaves as one continuous entity, with minimal degradation of the signal compared to soldered connections. This is particularly important in a digital cable, connectors which compress the cable can actually alter the cable’s impedance, which drops below the 75 Ohm specification, typically by up to 50%, reducing accuracy of the signal transfer.

Our finest wide bandwidth S/PDIF cable, utilising a silver-plated copper conductor, designed to be technically and sonically superior, without the typical noise-related ‘glare’ freqently found in inferior cables. Recommended for use whenever signal integrity is paramount, for example between CD transport or hi-res media player/streamer and DAC.A true reference class 75 Ohm digital cable.The Mavros 75 Ohm cable follows logically from our creating an outstanding analogue interconnect, the Mavros Ultra RCA.The Atlas design team has developed a cable with extremely precise transmission and termination standards, incorporating the same microporous PTFE (Teflon™) dielectric insulation as the other Mavros interconnects.The centre conductor is comprised of a monofilament conductor and 18 strands of super pure copper wire insulated by a thin layer of microporous PTFE. This new dielectric behaves almost like the theoretically perfect insulator –free air – with minimal effect upon the signal being transmitted. The previous highest performance insulator, solid PTFE, has a dielectric constant of around 2.1 whilst the new PTFE (Teflon™) foam improves this figure to around 1.5, providing for a 30% greater signal velocity and better signal integrity, particularly in the area of high frequency timing and stability.The co-axial double shielding layers are an aluminium Mylar™ foil followed by OFC (Oxygen Free Copper) braiding after which the whole cable is protected by a PVC jacket damped with cotton yarn.With a termination impedance of almost exactly 75 Ohms at 1 MHz and a low conductor-to-conductor capacitance of around 50 pF per meter the Mavros digital interconnect perfectly matches consumer digital audio equipment to ensure error-free transmission of high speed digital signals. The result is evident in the timing and dynamic range of musical performances where the temporal ‘smearing’ of lesser cables simply disappears.
