ELO Touch E951189 HDMI 2.0 Cable 18M Type-A
Overview
The ELO Touch E951189 is an 18-meter HDMI 2.0 Type-A to Type-A cable designed for AV system integrations where display and source hardware exceed standard cable run distances. At 18 meters, this cable bridges spaces too large for typical 5–10 meter runs without signal degradation, common in auditoriums, retail installations, and distributed surveillance control rooms. HDMI 2.0 bandwidth (18 Gbps) supports 4K resolution at 60 Hz and HDR — sufficient for modern display outputs from media servers, video processors, and surveillance VMS workstations.
Compatibility
This cable pairs with any AV equipment featuring standard HDMI Type-A connectors — including ELO Touch display systems, commercial video processors, media servers, and surveillance control room monitors. Verify that both the source and destination support HDMI 2.0 or later; older HDMI 1.4 devices will function but may exhibit signal loss over 18 meters. Check your VMS server graphics output and monitor input specifications before ordering to confirm HDMI version support.
Installation Notes
At 18 meters, signal integrity depends on cable quality and routing. Keep the cable away from high-voltage lines, heavy electrical conduits, and RF sources (radio transmitters, cellular equipment) to avoid interference. Use cable management clips or conduit every 1–2 meters to prevent mechanical stress on connectors. HDMI Type-A connectors are not locking — secure both ends firmly to avoid intermittent disconnects during vibration or accidental bumps. Do not exceed the rated bend radius (the minimum recommended by HDMI spec is approximately 3–4 times the cable diameter); tight coils increase capacitive loading and signal loss.
