HDMI CABLES
4K UHD HDMI
with HDR – Are
you Ready?
In the spirit of the true cinephile, Gordon J Gow Technologies, Inc. developed Tributaries UHD HDMI cables, the most
advanced line of Ultra High Definition HDMI cables available today. Designed by film lovers for film lovers, Tributaries
UHD HDMI cables were developed using meticulas electronic enginnering designed to exceed HDMI specifications by a
minimum 20% providing headroom to overcome possible system inadequacies.
UHD HDMI Cable Design
Tributaries oers the most advanced line of UHD HDMI cables
available today. These cbales have been custom desinged
to provide optimal operational 18Gbps performance. Every
conductor in each cable length was electroncially analized
for its data rate capability with the result balanced against its
gauge and flexibility.To guarantee optimal performance, VEGA,
TITAN, X-TEND, PRO and SLIM models have undergone rigorous
testing by DPL Labs and have earned the coveted 18Gbps
Seal of Approval. DPL labs test every conductor to ensure 4K
compatibility with bandwidth certified to 18Gbps enabling HDR.
All UHD cables are 18Gbps ceritified by ISF for Interoperability.
Testing HDMI Cables
At Tributaries, testing cables is taken very seriously. We are the only cable company in the industry that tests every HDMI cable after it arrives
from the factory using the Murideo Fresco Six-G HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 generator. This portable hand held UHD generator will produce an
HDMI 2.0, 18Gbps signal of 2160p/60Hz with 8-bit color and 4:4:4 color sampling. In addition, the Fresco Six-G also tests the recessed pin
#19: Hot Plug Detect. We confirm HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 compliance of every cable. Tributaries: Totally Tested, Tried and Trusted!
Focus on DDC
When a source and sink are connected the Display Data Channel
(DDC) line communicates the EDID information and a HDCP
handshake takes place. This handshake is required at start-up
and is repeated continuously; if there is an error, the system will
stop operation. The EDID data is transmitted vis signal pulses.
Due to the eect of capacitance, these pulses will degrade when
they pass through a cable. The longer the cable, the greater the
degrdation. A cable with excessive capacitance will slow down
the voltage Rise Time for each pulse, eectively degrading the
data to the point of error and signal failure. All Tributaries UHD
HDMI cables are designed with low capacitance on the DDC line
to ensure error-free performance.
Stay Connected
Power-Grip: Every Tributaries VEGA, TITAN, X-TEND, PRO and
SLIM cable have the patented Power-GripTM connector. Multilocational raised elements provide proper tension top-to-bottom
and side-to-side. We guarentee our connector will not shift in the
elctronics causing signal drop outs.
DPL Labs Seal of Approval
Tributaries VEGA, TITAN, X-TEND, PRO and SLIM models have received DPL Labs 4K Cable Certification. The
certification has 2 levels: 10.2Gbps and the coveted 18Gbps level. Tributaries is proud to be one of the first cable
companies to receive this prestigious 18Gbps certification. To learn more about DPL Labs go to: www.dpllabs.com

PASSIVE HDMI CABLES
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is a propriety interface for transmitting video/audio/control data between HDMI compliant
devices. HDMI is the digital replacement for analog video. Why is passive so important? Passive HDMI cables are always preferred over
active. In addition to incompatibility issues with other electronics, active cables are directional and will not work if reversed. The active
cable requires power to supply the on-board electronics; typically, these cables harvest their power from unused TMDS voltages. This
method works well if the source which drives the 5V line has an adequate output. If the source voltage is too low, it will draw down the
vital 5-volt line. Passive cables are bi-directional and voltage agnostic, making any installation simpler and more stable. HDMI cables are
sold in each.
SLIM SERIES PASSIVE HDMI CABLE
MODEL: UHDS
Super Slim 18G UHD HDMI cable
The UHDS is Tributaries SLIM Series of UHD HDMI cable. The UHDS features
a super slim design which makes this cable perfect for hiding in tight places
like behind flat panel TVs. The connector is the smallest in the industry about
the size of a dime and colored white to easily see in dark spaces. The SLIM is
frequently chosen by custom installers when networking multiple systems in
home automation control room racks because of its flexibility. All UHDS cables
have the patented power-grip connectors to ensure the connector stays put in
your electronics and are copper shielded to prevent noise from contaminating
the digital signal. Tributaries UHDS SLIM UHD HDMI cables provide accurate 4K
18Gbps digital transmission with Deep Color and High Dynamic Range (HDR).
The UHDS Slim Series Passive HDMI cable is stocked in each in lengths from ½
meter to 2 meter
Model UHDS Highlights
Made in China. Designed, packaged and tested in Orlando Florida, USA
Certified to support Ethernet, 3D, 4K and ARC
Certified to pass 18Gbps to support 4K/60 HDR Signals
Earned 18G certification from two independant test labs: ISF and DPL Labs
Power Grip connectors are tight fitting without the death grip of locking
connectors
The connector is the smallest in the industry about the size of a dime
Available in lengths of 1/2 meter to 2 meter
“I have a at panel with side connections and
my old cable stuck out. The SLIM is super exible
and small, totally hidden behind my TV. Plus
the white connector really made it easier to see
what I was doing – great design!”
