DVI (Digital Visual Interface) is the standard interface for high-performance uncompressed digital video transmissions between PCs and Digital Displays, Projectors, and HDTVs. Several modes of DVI exist including DVI-D Single-Link (digital), DVI-D Dual-Link (digital), DVI-A (analog) and DVI-I (both digital and analog).

• Connectors: 2x DVI-D Male Dual link
• Conductors:
  • Length of 1m-10m: 28 AWG Pure Copper
  • Length of 15m: 26 AWG Pure Copper
• Resolution: Resolutions up to 2560 x 1600
• Contacts: Gold-Plated
• Digital use only

What is CCA? Do your Value Series Dual-Link DVI-D cables use CCA?

CCA stands for Copper Clad Aluminum. It uses an aluminum wire as it's base that is then coated with copper. It less expensive than pure copper wiring and can be found in many low cost cables.

Pure copper cables have lower attenuation than CCA cables and provide a more stable connection. As wire length increases this affect compounds.

Finally, CCA wires have a lower tensile strength than that of pure copper allowing them to be damaged more easily during installation and use than a pure copper cable would.

Our Value Series Dual-Link DVI-D cables use pure copper conductors instead of CCA.
