Honeywell, maker of all kinds of alarming clandestine stuff, has just apparent its architecture for a "self-diagnostic and self-healing" HDMI cable. No, this isn't like the self-healing armor that for all we apperceive Honeywell aswell helped design; these new cables use a dent to absolute arresting as it passes through, and LEDs to acquaint the user what's traveling on.

Says David Coleman of Honeywell's CE Cable Articles division:
"We've fabricated this cable able by amalgam a dent into the adapter that performs two above functions. First, the chip's band disciplinarian 'cures' besmirched HDCP and EDID abstracts that can advance to austere audio and video artifacts. Second, we added 'light' in the anatomy of LEDs anchored into the adapter that let installers adviser the a lot of analytical elements of the HDMI interface for problems." The catechism is, how abundant of a botheration is besmirched data, and how abundant of a role do the apparatus themselves (PS3, DVD player, cable box, TV, receiver) play in the acclimation of signal? While Honeywell hasn't called its price—presumably because it will advertise to vendors, not consumers—the amount will no agnosticism be big-ticket as hell.Not alone that, but the lengths of cable alone go to 50 feet. That's a admirable distance, for sure, but in our testing, the achievability of problems lie in the best distances, so conceivably Honeywell should overlook about the beneath cables (there's even a 1.6 footer) and focus on 50 anxiety or longer.
That said, the LED abstraction is appealing cool: four LEDs announce whether you accept a reside connection, whether there is absolute video advancing through and added situations that can occur. Neat, you know? But conceivably not account the expense.
Honeywell Introduces Aboriginal Self-Diagnostic & Self-Healing HDMI Cable — Revolutionary New Honeywell CURxE Ablaze Technology Automatically Corrects A/V Signals for Besmirched HDCP and EDID Abstracts —PLEASANT PRAIRIE, WI, August 29, 2007— Honeywell (NYSE: HON) today appear the world's aboriginal HDMI agenda cable with CURxE Ablaze technology that automatically corrects besmirched HDCP and EDID abstracts that would contrarily abase high-definition account and multi-channel audio performance.
Honeywell developed absolute CURxE Ablaze technology forth with Spectrum Electronics' Jeff Bocaccio, one of the CE industry's a lot of admired authorities on HDMI.
"We've fabricated this cable able by amalgam a dent into the adapter that performs two above functions," said David Coleman, Program Manager, CE Cable Products, Honeywell. "First, the chip's band disciplinarian 'cures' besmirched HDCP and EDID abstracts that can advance to austere audio and video artifacts. Second, we added 'light' in the anatomy of LEDs anchored into the adapter that let installers adviser the a lot of analytical elements of the HDMI interface for problems."
"We are encouraged to see companies like Honeywell advance avant-garde HDMI articles for the marketplace," said Les Chard, President, HDMI Licensing, LLC. "As HDMI proliferates and becomes the de facto accepted for abutting home amphitheater and PC devices, companies like Honeywell are arch the way with new applications of the technology to accommodated specific bazaar needs."
AUTOMATIC SIGNAL CORRECTION
HDCP and EDID abstracts becomes besmirched as a aftereffect of inconsistencies of accouterments manufacturers' accomplishing of HDMI, or balance manual distances. Working in the background, CURxE Ablaze Technology automatically cleans the bad abstracts to its advised activating ambit for the best account quality. Left uncorrected this base abstracts causes dropout of the account or audio signal, incorrect resolution, alternate "snow" in the picture, or a blush or dejected brave screen.
BUILT-IN DIAGNOSTICS
Four LEDs chip into the cable's HDMI adapter serve as self-diagnostic ecology indicators. The four LEDs verify: Hot Plug detection, +5 Volts status, HDCP and EDID, pointing to either downstream, upstream or accessory problems depending on which LED fails to light. The fix may be as simple as switching inputs on the TV or can crave a firmware advancement of the DVD player, set-top box, AV receiver or added source. This aboriginal of its affectionate affection should advice installers save hours of time troubleshooting.
SUPERIOR CONSTRUCTION
To advice ensure pure, bright agenda audio and video signals, the new cables affection full-balanced band transition-minimized cogwheel signaling (TMDS); 100% antithesis absorber with 25% overlapping, accumulated with a 90% tinned chestnut complect shield; additional bandwidth-maximizing silver-plated chestnut conductors. The male-to-male cables are advised for HDTV 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p. Lengths ambit from .5 meters (1.6 feet) up to 15-meters (49.2 feet)
