- HDMI 2.2 bandwidth range from 48GBPS to 96GBPS
- 4K at 240Hz and 8k at 60Hz – 4K at 4K and 4K compressed at 4K 240Hz
- All ports with HDMI 2.2 do not support full imagination
This is official: HDMI 2.2 specification has been published, and this means that manufacturers can start making it in their products. You won’t see it immediately – a new imagination is a proper interval between the appropriate and suitable hardware that is making it in production – but it promises some large improvements and some minor annoyance.
The Good News First: Provided that you have an Altra96 cable, you will be able to take advantage of 96GBPS bandwidth compared to 48GBPS of HDMI 2.1B.
Bad news: Just because an HDMI port “Ultra 96” says, it does not mean that you will get 96GBPS, as it will be very easy.
Why HDMI 2.2 does not mean that you will upgrade everything
As Flatpanelshd Report, if a cable says that this Ultra96 is certified then he will have to distribute 96GBPS. But if a device’s HDMI 2.2 Port Ultra 96 says it is not. It can be 80GBPS, or 64GBPS.
This is because with HDMI 2.2, manufacturers can stick 2.2 / ultra 96 labels on their products, even if they do not support every part of the product standard.
This reminds us of USB-C: just because something is USB-C connector does not mean that it supports any or all important characteristics that you can expect.
Kalpana, however, is impressive. In addition to better AV device synchronization and support for unprocessed 4K 240Hz and 8k 60Hz, DSC 1.2A signal compression for high-RES formats up to 16K, in addition to better AV device synchronization and 8k 60Hz through the Letty Indication Protocol-although it requires HDMI 2.2 and DSC 1.2A, and DSC 1.2A, and its video/ADSC 1.2A options for this. Is. And of course, the creators also need to be committed to make things in 16K.
When you will actually be able to get HDMI 2.2 products, it is expected that it will be faster than a two -year margin between the announcement and arrival of HDMI 2.1. But even on a sharp schedule you are probably watching HDMI 2.2 TV which is first seen in the late 2026 or in early 2027.
