ultrahigh
Beyond normal peaks
Ultrahigh describes frequencies, temperatures, pressures, or other measurements at the extreme upper end of a scale.
In broadcasting, ultrahigh frequency (UHF) designates radio waves between 300 MHz and 3 GHz.
The prefix intensifies high beyond its normal range: ultrahigh vacuum, ultrahigh resolution, ultrahigh net worth.
