When it comes to HDMI cables, the evolution has been a long pathway from 1.0 now to the 2.1a in a pace to keep up with the ever-growing quality of content we watch and the need to move large amounts of information quickly and accurately. The majority of HDMI cables are made of copper strands in varying qualities or composites, where fibre optic HDMI cables are made up of fibre strands and hybrid versions with copper also. Copper based cables currently max out at 48 gigabytes per second (in very short lengths), where fibre optical cables can theoretically reach 100s of terabytes per second which can simply provide an endless solution to the constantly evolving content demands and qualities.
