Sommer Cable America is introducing at NAB the new DVM-HDT-KIT-- HDMI Engineers Toolkit with 4K and HDMI 2.0 support, an easy-to-use measurement tool for HDMI installations, rental companies, trouble-shooting, and product development.

Sommer Cable, the German specialist for professional, high-quality cables and connector technologies, is introducing a variety of new products in its Cardinal DVM electronics line.
