> Supporting the 48Gbps bandwidth is the new Ultra High Speed HDMI Cable. The cable ensures high-bandwidth dependent features are delivered including uncompressed 8K video with HDR.
This is interesting, because I've seen several companies promoting "visually lossless" compression (which is apparently a euphemism for lossy compression that the vendor doesn't think you'll notice) to reduce bandwidth requirements for cabled 8K video transmission. Does this represent some kind of defeat for them, or were they targeting applications where Ultra High Speed HDMI wasn't going to be realistic in the first place (e.g. the various systems that transmit video over UTP cable)?
Also, does anyone know how USB 3.1 SuperSpeed+ cables stack up? Obviously they're specified for 10Gbps for USB devices, but that's in the context of USB's requirements for the attached transceivers, so I'm not sure what it implies about the performance of the cable itself.
