Monster introduces the Ultimate High Speed Cable For HDMI[TM] to Europe

Berlin (ots) - Monster® Ultimate High Speed Cables for HDMI are
Capable of Data rates greater than 14.9 Gbps to Let Consumers
Experience the Ultimate Quality and Performance from High Definition
Home Entertainment Components.

Monster, the world's leading manufacturer of high-end cables,
accessories and power conditioning products, introduced the world's
first speed-rated cables for HDMI[TM] late last year to the market.
The core cable line featured cables in four different speed
ratings-Standard Speed, High Speed, Advanced High Speed and
Ultra-High Speed. Now, Monster is proud to announce a fifth speed
rating-Ultimate High Speed-a speed rating available on just one
no-compromise, ultimate-quality cable, the Monster M Series® M1000HD.
Monster® M1000 is the embodiment of today's most advanced
connectivity technologies, resulting in incredible performance,
reliability and durability.

Ultimate High Speed Cables for HDMI are designed to "future-proof"
any home entertainment system; there is no Monster Cable® that is
faster or of higher quality construction. Customers need no longer
wonder whether their HDMI cable will have adequate bandwidth for
their application. Monster Ultimate High Speed Cables are capable of
data rates greater than 14.9 Gbps. This digital audio/video interface
does it all, delivering uncompressed high definition video
(1080p/60Hz and beyond), stunning 12-bit colour, eight channels of
digital audio for 7.1 surround sound and an integrated control
channel-all in one cable. In addition, it eliminates
digital-to-analogue conversion between video sources and display for
the most accurate high definition picture. Customers can be assured
that Ultimate High Speed cables will more than meet the requirements
of higher bandwidth components now and in the future.

Peak Performance Even Over Long Cable Runs

Noel Lee, the Head Monster, states, " As HDTV displays get larger,
people are positioning their flat-screens further and further away
from source devices, and screen resolution and colour depth can be
degraded by using long lengths of low-quality HDMI cables. Ultimate
High Speed Cables performs even over long runs. We are committed to
staying at the leading edge of technology advances in cables and to
creating products that exceed current specifications, providing great
performance even at long lengths. This commitment reflects our
29-year history of building top quality cables and our portfolio of
over 100 cable and connector patents. Additionally, Monster's new
speed rating and performance system makes it easy for consumers to
select the cable that will deliver the very best performance when
used with today's most advanced home entertainment components as well
as those of tomorrow."

Speed Medallions and Performance Bars

All HDMI cables in the Core, Monster/THX Ultra Home Theatre and M
Series lines feature the Monster Speed Medallion System and
Performance Bars on their packaging. The performance bars indicate
what audio/video features each cable supports, so customers can
quickly and easily select the right Monster cable for their level of
HDTV. With Monster speed-rated cables for HDMI, the consumer now has
a CHOICE of Monster cables for various performance levels of
components, from standard and upconverting DVD players to Blu-ray[TM]
and PlayStation 3 as well as latest 100Hz HDTVs.
