WIREWORKS INTRODUCES AV2000 MULTIMEDIA CABLING WITH HD/SDI CAPABILITY AT AES 2007

NEW YORK, NY, SEPTEMBER 26, 2007 - Wireworks, the leading innovator of audio/video cabling systems and custom panels, presents its AV2000 MultiMedia Cabling with HD/SDI Capability at AES 2007, booth #1200. The upgraded cabling system is now HD compatible and is ideal for multi-media, audio/video projects such as live productions, mobile broadcasting, post production and a wide range of other integrated applications. The AV2000 MultiMedia Cabling connects multi-media systems through one simple and reliable plug in, offering a practical, time and cost-efficient solution for both the installer and end-user.

AV2000 MultiMedia Cabling combines audio, high definition video, data and control signals through a sophisticated hybrid connector that replaces multiple fragile tails and connectors. AV2000 allows each cabling system to match specific equipment requirements.

With AV2000 MultiMedia Cabling, components are configured to match customers‘ needs. All tails can be terminated to meet system requirements. Utilizing three components - the Access Point, the Umbilical and the Link - the AV2000 can be integrated easily and can simplify every multi-media installation.

AV2000 Access Points can be pre-mounted on gang, rack, wall or floorbox panels and terminated with individual cables providing a drop in solution for the installer. Access Points can be retrofitted easily into existing systems. AV2000 Umbilicals are flex-wrapped cable assemblies terminated on one end with a line type AV2000 connector; the other end of the cable assembly is configured with a connectorized fan out. Each AV2000 Umbilicals is custom manufactured to meet individual length requirements for easy installation directly into the system rack or podium. Lastly, AV2000 Link is a flex-wrapped cable assembly terminated on each end with line type AV2000 connectors. Designed to connect between two AV2000 Access Points, the AV2000 Link also can be used as an extension to the AV2000 Umbilical for added length and flexibility.

“AV2000 also reduces plugging time by up to 95% and saves panel space needed for highly integrated systems, important when pressed for time on the road or in the studio,” states Gerald Krulewicz, president of Wireworks. “A simple solution to the clutter and confusion associated with multiple connectors; AV2000 is now HD compatible - vital for many components for full-system integration in today‘s marketplace.”

AV2000 MultiMedia Cabling features rugged metal housing that incorporates a superior strain relief. High-quality materials are used throughout to prevent signal degeneration. Cables are enclosed safely in a nylon mesh jacket to prevent damage and tangling.

Sixteen gauge contacts, used for audio, data and control signals, are precision formed brass pin and socket contacts with a proprietary gold plating. To accommodate a wide range of high performance coaxial cables, specifically sized true coaxial contacts are used. Connectors are keyed to eliminate mis-plugging.
