Canare L-5.5CUHD UHD 12G-SDI Ultra Coax Custom Cable

Canare L-5.5CUHD professional 75-ohm coaxial cable from the Ultra Coax series for 12G-SDI / 4K-UHD in accordance with SMPTE ST 2082-1. Suitable for longer 12G-SDI runs, up to approximately 102 m depending on the equipment used and the entire signal path.

Canare L-5.5CUHD UHD 12G-SDI Ultra Coax Custom Cable

The Canare L-5.5CUHD is a professional 75-ohm digital video coaxial cable from the Ultra Coax series, designed for demanding 12G-SDI / 4K-UHD applications in accordance with the SMPTE ST 2082-1 specification. Compared to thinner 12G-SDI cables, it offers lower attenuation, greater transmission headroom, and is suitable for longer cable runs in studios, control rooms, installations, or between professional video equipment.

For 12G-SDI / 4K-UHD, the approximate maximum transmission distance is up to 102 m according to Canare’s catalog specifications. In practice, the resulting reliability may depend on the equipment used, the receiver, signal quality, connectors, and the entire signal path.

The cable is custom-made according to the selected configuration. You can choose the desired length, available connectors, and cover color directly on the product page. Thanks to its 7.7 mm diameter and low attenuation, the L-5.5CUHD is a suitable choice where stable 12G-SDI transmission over longer distances is a priority.
