Monster Powered Cables for HDMI
Monster SuperThin cables are made possible with an innovation called RedMere
® MagnifEye®
Active technology. Requiring no external power supply, the technology enables industry-leading
data speeds and ultimate-quality performance by equalizing the HD signals directly in the
SuperThin cable itself. This eliminates the need for heavy-gauge copper, making the cables
extremely light, thin and portable. Monster SuperThin cables measure just 3.5 mm in diameter,
approximately 55% thinner than other High-Speed Rated HDMI cables.

Monster’s SuperThin Products Make Installation Easy
The new Monster SuperThin Cables for HDMI feature a built-in LED indicator that instantly flashes
when the HDMI signal coming from any connected source component is active. Once the source
and display are in sync, the LED shines constantly, confirming the connection. The virtually invisible
cables are ideal for use in aesthetically designed, tight-fitting, against-the-wall home theater
installations and those utilizing articulating mounts. Consumers can literally hide the cables away
from plain sight, as well as fit them into tight corners for a new level of installation flexibility. In
addition, Monster makes available, a specially designed SuperThin Swivel Adapter (MSRP:$34.95)
that offers the ultimate in flexibility for tough HDMI connections requiring a super-tight and neat fit.
This is ideal for installations in hard-to-reach areas or at difficult angles. Monster SuperThin
connectivity solutions and complete line of FlatScreen mounts and accessories will help users
make perfect flat screen installations quickly and easily.
