Description
1. HDMI Version
- HDMI 2.0 or HDMI 2.1 (depending on the cable brand and model)
- HDMI 2.0 supports up to 4K at 60Hz resolution.
- HDMI 2.1 supports up to 8K at 60Hz and 4K at 120Hz resolution.
2. Resolution & Bandwidth
- HDMI 2.0: Supports 4K resolution at 60Hz, with a bandwidth of 18.0 Gbps.
- HDMI 2.1: Supports 8K at 60Hz or 4K at 120Hz, with a bandwidth of 48 Gbps.
3. Audio Support
- Supports Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio, Dolby Atmos, and other high-definition audio formats.
- Audio Return Channel (ARC) supported in most HDMI 2.0 cables.
- Enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC) is available with HDMI 2.1 cables for higher-quality audio transmission.
4. Connector Type
- Standard HDMI Type-A connectors (most common)
- Gold-plated connectors for better corrosion resistance and signal integrity.
5. Cable Construction
- High-quality copper conductors for optimal signal transmission.
- Shielding: Multi-layer shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) and maintain signal quality over long distances.
- Durable PVC or nylon braiding: Helps protect the cable and ensures it remains flexible.
6. Supports Features
- High Dynamic Range (HDR) for enhanced colors and contrast.
- Deep Color: Allows for a wider color range and deeper tones.
- 3D Video support.
- CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) for controlling multiple HDMI devices with a single remote.
7. Maximum Cable Length
- A 10-meter (10M) HDMI cable can transmit stable signals for 1080p and 4K resolutions.
- However, over longer distances, signal degradation can occur. To maintain high resolution and quality, HDMI 2.1 or active cables are preferred for longer runs like 10 meters, as they include built-in signal boosters.
8. Compatibility
- Compatible with devices such as TVs, projectors, gaming consoles, laptops, desktop computers, and Blu-ray players.
- Ideal for home theaters or professional setups where the distance between devices exceeds the typical 1-2 meter range.
9. Other Features (if applicable)
- Active HDMI cables: May be required for lengths like 10 meters, as they boost the signal to prevent degradation.
- ARC/eARC: For sending audio signals back to soundbars or AV receivers.
- Built-in signal booster: Active cables may have this to ensure that the signal remains strong over the long distance.
10. Possible Limitations
- At longer lengths (e.g., 10M), passive HDMI cables may experience signal loss, especially with higher resolutions (4K, 8K) and higher frame rates. Therefore, active HDMI cables or cables with built-in boosters may be necessary for consistent performance.
