BZBGEAR BG-AVTPG-MINI PRODUCT MANUAL
Cable Mode
In this mode, BG-AVTPG-MINI offers a link
quality estimator using a Character Error
Detection mechanism to HDMI 2.0
specifications. The estimator can provide a
basic link quality evaluation regarding the
cable or any other HDMI link connected to
BG-AVTPG-MINI.
Please note that the evaluation result can
provide an insight into the link quality under
testing but it does not always reflect the real
robustness of an HDMI 2.0 full bandwidth
connection.
The stability of the full bandwidth of an HDMI
2.0 connection is affected not only by the
cable or link quality but many other factors
such as the signal integrity of the source, the
ambient temperature, the reception of the
display, and so on. Therefore the testing
results are just for reference.
How to run Cable Mode:
●Ensure a tight connection between the BG-AVTPG-MINI and the cable.
●Use the buttons to select the MODE category and enter CABLE mode.
●Keep pressing ENTER button for about 5 seconds to start the link test. The
BG-AVTPG-MINI will evaluate the HDMI signal quality based on HDMI 2.0
specifications and provide a result, PASS or NG. Please note that during testing the
BG-AVTPG-MINI will NOT take any commands from the buttons except ENTER.
Pressing ENTER continuously for 5 seconds will terminate the evaluation process.

BZBGEAR BG-AVTPG-MINI PRODUCT MANUAL
●Performance Criteria:
According to HDMI 2.0 specification, the performance criteria is shown in the
following table.
Test Result
Requirement
PASS
The error counts of signal are less than signal clock x 10-6
NG
The error counts of signal are more than signal clock x 10-6
Please be advised that the test result is based on the cable connection and the signal
integrity of both input and output from BG-AVTPG-MINI. The indicator is usually a good
reference for cable quality, but any other source or display in consideration plays an
important role in the final stability of the HDMI 2.0 connection.
