Parallaxes of W UMa stars in the Hipparcos catalogue have been analyzed. 31 W UMa stars, which have the most accurate parallaxes (σπ/π < 0.15) which are neither associated with a photometric tertiary nor with evidence of a visual companion, were selected for re-calibrating the Period-Luminosity-Colo
Using reliable trigonometric measurements, we find that the absolute magnitude of cataclysmic variables depends on the orbital period and de-reddened (J À H) 0 and (H À K s ) 0 colours of 2MASS (Two Micron All Sky Survey) photometric system. The calibration equation covers the ranges 0.032 d < P orb
