In tune with multiple 8K TV models set to enter the market in 2020, cable brand Austere is introducing its 8K HDMI 2.1 cable.

The latest addition to the Austere portfolio is engineered to meet 8K UHD specification standards, says the maker, including a bandwidth of 48 Gbps, and can carry resolutions up to 10K and 8K60, 4K120 frame rates.

Austere’s 8K HDMI 2.1 cable, while future-ready for 8K, also accommodates the newest 4K TVs, as well as 8K gaming consoles. To further heighten the entertainment and gaming experience, Austere 8K HDMI cables also includes a featured called High-Fidelity eARC technology, said to deliver the highest quality streaming audio available, while Variable Refresh Rate provides smooth performance and is said to virtually eliminate image lag, stutter, and frame tearing.

The Austere 8K HDMI 2.1 cable is also designed with aesthetics in mind as well as performance, says the company. Its Kevlar-reinforced windings and Austere signature WovenArmor cable, which are demonstrably thinner than most other 8K cable options, combine flexibility and strength, so that no corner derails the signal. It also features gold shield contacts, which enhance connection, and its aDesign housing is visually striking, with a slim design ideal for tight installations. Finally, the LinkFit Connector is said by the company to ensure a connection that will firmly stay in place.

Austere 8K HDMI 2.1 cable is available in 1.5m and 2.5m lengths for $99 and $149, respectively. It, as well as all Austere products, are available now at Austere.com as well as at select national, regional and global retailers including BrandsMart USA, Conn’s HomePlus, Crutchfield, Visions Electronics, and Amazon.com.
