Product Features
Technical Overview
Engineered for reliable high-resolution video and audio transmission, the MXTHQMM15A utilizes a coaxial cable design with 28 AWG wiring and comprehensive shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI). The impedance is precisely matched at 75 ohms, which is critical for maintaining signal integrity and preventing ghosting or color shifts in the displayed image.
Each connector end is molded with strain relief to protect against physical stress and cable pull-out, extending the cable's operational life. A ferrite bead is incorporated to further suppress EMI, ensuring clean audio and video signals even in electrically noisy environments. The nickel-plated connectors offer corrosion resistance and consistent conductivity for dependable connections over time.
This section brings together practical product details such as Cable Type, Cable Length, Connector Type on First End, Color Family, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
