FAQ
What is the maximum resolution and refresh rate this HDMI cable supports?
This HDMI 2.0 cable supports resolutions up to 4K UHD (3840x2160) at a 60Hz refresh rate. It also supports high refresh rates for lower resolutions, including 1440p at 144Hz and 1080p at 240Hz, making it suitable for both high-fidelity media and high-performance computing or gaming.
How do the gripping connectors work, and when are they most useful?
The connectors feature a latching mechanism that provides a secure, positive lock into the HDMI port. This design resists disconnection caused by vibration, cable tension, or accidental pulls. They are most valuable in permanent installations, mounted equipment racks, digital signage, video walls, or any scenario where a reliable, uninterrupted connection is critical and physical access is limited.
Does this cable support HDR and advanced audio formats?
Yes, the cable fully supports HDR10 for enhanced contrast and color in compatible content. For audio, it supports the Audio Return Channel (ARC), DTS-HD Master Audio, 7.1 surround sound, and up to 32 channels of audio, providing a comprehensive audio-visual experience for home theater and professional AV setups.
What is the cable length and is it suitable for in-wall installation?
The cable is 2 meters long (approximately 6.6 feet). While it is shielded and durable, its jacket is rated VW-1 for flammability. Always consult local electrical codes and standards; for in-wall installations, specific CL2 or CL3 rated cables are typically required, which this model is not explicitly listed as.
Is this cable compatible with USB-C ports using an adapter?
Yes, this HDMI cable is fully compatible with USB-C to HDMI adapters. This makes it an excellent solution for connecting modern laptops, such as Apple MacBook Pro models with M-series chips or other devices that only have USB-C/Thunderbolt ports, to HDMI displays, projectors, or TVs.
