Know before you buy
Yes, this is an Ultra High Speed HDMI 2.1 cable, which is the official certification required to support 8K at 60Hz and 4K at 120Hz. It meets the full 48Gbps bandwidth requirement for modern consoles and high-end graphics cards.
Yes, this cable carries a CL2 safety rating, meaning it is specifically designed and tested for safe in-wall installation.
Absolutely. This cable supports eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel), allowing for high-quality, uncompressed audio transmission between your TV and a compatible soundbar or receiver.
While the braided nylon jacket adds significant durability and protection, it remains flexible enough for standard home theater setups and cable routing behind your equipment.
If your TV is already 4K, this cable will reliably deliver the signal without data loss. However, it won't upgrade the panel's native resolution, though it will ensure you are getting the full benefit of features like Dynamic HDR and Dolby Vision if your display supports them.
