AudioQuest ThunderBird 48 Ultra High Speed HDMI 2.1 Cable

The AudioQuest ThunderBird 48 HDMI Cable is engineered to carry the full 48 Gbps bandwidth required by HDMI 2.1. That makes it capable of handling advanced formats such as 8K @ 60 Hz, 4K @ 120 Hz, dynamic HDR, VRR (Variable Refresh Rate), and eARC for high-resolution audio.

Premium 10% Silver-Plated Conductor System

ThunderBird 48 uses solid copper conductors plated with 10 % silver. This silver plating improves surface conduction and helps suppress high-frequency distortions, enhancing signal integrity across the HDMI path.

Level-5 Noise Dissipation Architecture

To combat interference from RF/EMI (e.g. WiFi, cellular, power lines), this cable integrates a Level-5 Noise Dissipation system. It includes direction-controlled conductors, graphene-enhanced carbon layers, and specialized shielding around the FRL + eARC pairs to reduce noise ingress.

Directional Design & Enhanced Drain Paths

All 19 internal conductors (audio/video, control, eARC, etc.) are direction-controlled, meaning that wires are oriented so that induced noise is routed away from critical circuits. In addition, ThunderBird 48 includes silver-plated drains (ground/shield) to further aid noise evacuation.
