4.4 HDMI SETUP
About HDMI
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the newest interface for audiovisual equipment such as high-
definition television and home theater systems. With 19 wires wrapped in a single cable that resembles a USB
wire, HDMI is able to carry a bandwidth of 5 Gbps (gigabits per second). This is more than twice the bandwidth
needed to transmit multi-channel audio and video, future-proofing HDMI for some time to come. This and several
other factors make HDMI much more desirable than its predecessors, component video, S-Video and composite
video.

System Setup
HDMI is an uncompressed, all-digital signal, while the aforementioned interfaces are all analog. With an analog
interface, a cleandigital source istranslated into lessprecise analog, sent to the television, then converted back to
a digital signal to display on screen. At each translation, the digital signal loses integrity, resulting in some
distortion of picture quality. HDMI preserves the source signal, eliminating analog conversion to deliver the
sharpest, richest picturepossible.
Though standard HDMI or "Type A" has 19 wires, "Type B" will have 29 wires. The latter is targeted for the motion
picture industry and other professional applications. Both varieties are "Intelligent HDMI," referring to the built-in
capability for HDMI-enabled components to talk to each other via the interface. Auxiliary information can provide
all-in-one remote functionalityand other interoperablefeatures not possible in previous interfacetechnologies.
HDMI supports standard video formats, enhanced video and high-definition. It is also backwards compatible with
DVI (Digital Video Interface). High-end graphics cards featuring a DVI port can connect to a HDMI interface via a
DVI/HDMI cable. This is simply a cable with a DVI connector on one end and a HDMI connector on the other. As a
rule, HDMI cablesshould not runlonger than 15 feet (5 meters), or degradation ofthe signal couldoccur.
