MilesTek, an Infinite Electronics brand and a leading manufacturer and supplier of products designed to address military and avionics applications, announced today that it has released a new series of waterproof HDMI cable assemblies for use in industrial computing, factory automation, outdoor digital signage, medical and harsh environment A/V applications.

These rugged IP67-rated HDMI cable assemblies feature a waterproof coupler that allows these HDMI cables to withstand harsh environments by preventing the ingress of water and fine particulates such as dust that would typically render standard HDMI cables useless. These robust cables feature gold plated contacts that stand up to repeated mating cycles, operating temperatures of -24C to +85C and lanyard attached dust caps on each connector to keep debris out of the connector while not in use.

In addition to the new waterproof HDMI cables, MilesTek now also offers an IP67-rated HDMI panel-mount coupler that can be used with the new IP67-rated HDMI cable assemblies. The MMIC00009 can be mounted to a panel or enclosure and ships with a chain attached dust cap to keep the coupler water and dust free while not in use.

“These rugged waterproof HDMI cables and coupler offer a perfect solution for customers who require HDMI connectivity in harsh environments often found in military, industrial computing and outdoor display applications. These hard to find IP67-rated HDMI cables and coupler are available off-the-shelf with no minimum order quantities and are in-stock,” said Mark Blackwood, Product Manager.

MilesTek’s waterproof HDMI cables and IP67-rated HDMI panel-mount coupler are in-stock and available for immediate shipment.
