FAQs

What HDMI version does this cable support?

This cable supports the HDMI 1.3 specification.

Can this cable handle 4K video?

While it can carry HD signals, the HDMI 1.3 specification is not optimized for 4K resolutions, especially at higher frame rates. For reliable 4K, an HDMI 1.4 or higher cable is recommended.

What is the length of this cable?

The cable length is 1.5 meters.

What does ARC support mean?

ARC (Audio Return Channel) allows audio to be sent from your TV back to an AV receiver or soundbar using the same HDMI cable, reducing the number of cables needed.

Are the connectors gold-plated?

Yes, the connectors on this cable are gold-plated for improved conductivity and durability.

Can I use this cable for high-speed internet?

This cable supports Ethernet over HDMI, but it is intended for basic network connectivity between compatible devices and is not a replacement for a dedicated internet connection.

How should I clean the cable connectors?

Gently wipe the gold-plated connectors with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using any liquids or abrasive materials.

Troubleshooting

No picture or sound from the connected device

Ensure both ends of the cable are securely plugged into the correct HDMI ports on both devices. Try using a different HDMI port on your TV or display. Verify that the correct input source is selected on your display. Test the cable with different devices if possible.

Flickering or intermittent video signal

Check for any damage to the cable or connectors. Ensure the cable is not bent sharply or under strain. Try cleaning the gold-plated connectors with a dry, soft cloth. If the issue persists, the cable may be faulty or the source/display device may have an issue.

Audio Return Channel (ARC) not working

Confirm that both your TV and audio device (soundbar, AV receiver) support ARC and that the feature is enabled in their respective settings menus. Ensure the HDMI cable is connected to the specific HDMI ports designated for ARC on both devices. Reboot both the TV and the audio device.

Device not recognizing Ethernet connection over HDMI

Verify that both devices connected support Ethernet over HDMI (HCEC). Ensure the feature is enabled in the settings of both the source and display devices. Note that Ethernet over HDMI functionality is limited and may not be as robust as a dedicated network connection.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Supports Ethernet and ARC for enhanced connectivity and simplified audio setups.
  • Gold-plated connectors offer reliable signal transfer and durability.
  • Provides stable Full HD picture and sound quality.
  • Effective noise reduction for a cleaner audio-visual experience.
  • Convenient 1.5m length suitable for many common setups.

Cons

  • Limited to HDMI 1.3 specifications, does not support newer features like 4K at high refresh rates or advanced HDR.
  • Black PVC cable jacket may be less aesthetically pleasing in some setups compared to premium braided cables.
  • Ethernet support is limited by the HDMI 1.3 standard.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure both your source device (e.g., Blu-ray player, game console) and display device (e.g., HDTV, projector) are powered off.
  2. Connect one end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI output port on your source device.
  3. Connect the other end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI input port on your display device.
  4. Power on your devices. Your display should now show the output from your source device.

Compatibility:

This cable is compatible with any device featuring a standard HDMI Type A port. It supports the HDMI 1.3 specification, making it suitable for Full HD resolutions (1080p) and standard audio formats. Devices requiring HDMI 1.4 or higher for features like 4K resolution at 30Hz or 60Hz, Ethernet functionality beyond basic networking, or advanced ARC may not perform optimally or utilize all features.

Care:

  • Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable, which can damage internal wiring.
  • Keep connectors clean and free from dust and debris. If necessary, gently clean with a dry, soft cloth.
  • Do not expose the cable to excessive heat or moisture.
  • Store the cable neatly when not in use.
