Reference AV Performance in the Norse 2 Series | Available at Trimira Audio
The Nordost Heimdall 2 4K UHD Cable is a high-performance HDMI cable designed for demanding home theater and AV systems requiring reliable high-speed transmission of modern video and multi-channel digital audio signals.
Positioned within Nordost's Norse 2 Series, the Heimdall 2 combines Micro Mono-Filament technology, silver-plated solid-core conductors, controlled twin-axial geometry, comprehensive shielding, and precision HDMI terminations.
It is designed for applications involving 4K UHD displays, projectors, AV receivers, processors, game consoles, disc players, and other HDMI-equipped components.
At Trimira Audio, we recommend the Heimdall 2 4K UHD Cable for reference home cinema and AV systems where high-speed HDMI connectivity and carefully controlled cable construction are priorities.
Key Features & Proprietary Technologies
Micro Mono-Filament Technology
Each conductor incorporates a fine FEP filament before being enclosed in an extruded FEP outer jacket.
This creates a low-contact dielectric structure designed to minimize dielectric interaction and support high-speed signal transmission.
19 × 25 AWG Silver-Plated Solid-Core Conductors
The Heimdall 2 uses 19 × 25 AWG solid-core conductors manufactured from high-purity OFC copper with silver plating.
The solid-core architecture provides consistent conductor geometry for high-frequency digital transmission.
Twin-Axial Shielded Pair Design
The cable employs controlled twin-axial geometry with individual pair shielding and an overall dual-layer braid and foil shield.
The shielding provides comprehensive protection against:
- RF interference
- Electromagnetic interference
- External high-frequency electrical noise
- Signal crosstalk
Mechanically Tuned Spacing & Lay
Computer-controlled conductor spacing and mechanical geometry are designed to maintain consistent electrical characteristics and controlled impedance throughout the cable.
High-Purity FEP Insulation
Extruded FEP insulation provides a low-loss dielectric environment with high mechanical and thermal stability.
Precision Hand Terminations
The cable is terminated with fully shielded, gold-plated, low-mass Type-A HDMI connectors, designed to maintain a secure connection while preserving the cable's controlled high-frequency geometry.
The cable supports modern high-speed HDMI applications including 4K UHD video, HDR, ARC, Deep Color, and compatible immersive audio formats.
