LASER launches HDMI Connect range of 3D-enabled HDMI cables

Sydney, Australia, July 28, 2010 – LASER Corporation, an IT and consumer electronics accessories company, today announced the introduction of a new label HDMI Connect, to its range of cables. The Connect product line has been designed to distinguish LASER’s range of HDMI cables and provide a stronger shelf presence.

The flagship v1.4 HDMI Connect cable supports 3D TV in 2K + pixel resolution and remarkably provides cinematic resolutions of 4K x 2K (4096 x 2160) – more than four times the resolution of Blu-ray.

HDMI v1.4 offers networking capabilities which will allow users to send 100Mb/s Ethernet signals through to their home entertainment devices that are v1.4 HDMI enabled. Consolidating video, audio and data streaming, HDMI v1.4 essentially eliminates the need for multiple cables.

Chris Lau, Managing Director of LASER Corporation, said, “HDMI v1.4 cables are in great demand in the Australian market right now due to the release of 3D TV. Even though LASER currently has a number of HDMI cables in the market, we saw the need to expand in order to meet growing consumer demands.”

The HDMI Connect range also includes HDMI v1.3b for consumers who may not require the larger bandwidth or the need to view 3D content.

LASER’s HDMI Connect range of cables are available in Australia now through selected retailers. RRP starts from $29.95 for a basic version HDMI 1.3b cable to $69.95 for the swivel head HDMI v1.4 cable, which supports 3D content. All prices include GST.
