Product Features
Technical Overview
This cable meets the rigorous testing standards for Premium HDMI Cable Certification, which validates performance for 4K/60Hz, HDR, and wide color gamuts. The 18 Gbps data transfer rate is essential for uncompressed 4K video, 8-bit color, and 4:4:4 chroma subsampling. It maintains backward compatibility with earlier HDMI versions (1.4, 1.3, etc.), ensuring it works with existing home theater and computer setups.
Internal construction utilizes a braided aluminum Mylar foil shield for effective EMI protection, minimizing interference in electrically noisy environments. The connectors are rated for over 10,000 insertion cycles and the cable is tested to withstand 2,000 bending cycles at ±60 degrees. The VW-1 rated TPE jacket is halogen-free and RoHS compliant, meeting environmental and safety standards for commercial and residential use.
Key Product Advantages
This cable integrates multiple HDMI features that enhance system functionality. The HDMI Ethernet Channel (HEC) allows for a shared network connection over HDMI, reducing cable clutter. Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) enables single-remote control of compatible linked devices. The passive design requires no external power, ensuring plug-and-play operation across all supported devices.
Certified Performance Assurance
The Premium HDMI certification provides verified performance for 4K/60Hz, HDR, and 18 Gbps bandwidth, eliminating guesswork about cable capabilities. Performance markings on the connectors allow for quick identification in rack or cable management scenarios.
Robust Physical Durability
Gold-plated connectors resist corrosion and ensure consistent electrical contact. The flexible yet durable TPE jacket with molded strain reliefs protects against physical stress at connection points, making it suitable for permanent installations or frequent reconfiguration.
Deployment / Use Cases
The cable's 8-foot length provides ample reach for wall-mounted displays, equipment racks, or desktop setups where devices are not directly adjacent. Its slim 5.08mm outer diameter allows for easy routing through cable conduits, behind furniture, or in tight cable management channels. The universal black color blends discreetly into any environment.
High-Performance Computing & Gaming
Connect high-refresh-rate monitors (up to 144Hz at 1440p) to gaming PCs or workstations with external GPUs. The bandwidth supports smooth gameplay and detailed creative work on 4K displays from docking stations or direct GPU outputs.
Home Theater & Professional AV
Link 4K UHD TVs, projectors, or professional monitors to AV receivers, media players, soundbars, or streaming devices. Support for HDR10 and HDCP 2.2 is critical for viewing the latest 4K HDR movie content from services like Netflix, Disney+, or Ultra HD Blu-ray players.
Physical Profile
This HDMI cable features a sleek, all-black design with a smooth Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) jacket that remains flexible across a wide temperature range. The compact 0.20-inch diameter and lightweight construction (4.30 oz) make it easy to handle and install without adding bulk. The gold-plated connectors have a distinctive, professional appearance and are clearly marked with the Premium HDMI logo for instant verification of capability.
