Additionally, it boasts support for eARC (enhanced Audio Return Channel), allowing for enhanced audio transmission. It is compatible with Dolby Atmos, DTS X 7.1, and DTS X 5.1 surround sound. If you’ve got a long connection to set up – running from one floor of the house to another, perhaps – then you’ll want to invest in an extra-long HDMI cable. KabelDirect’s 20m HDMI cable is an excellent example and offers a 2.0 connection. Best of all, it comes with a 36-month warranty. Each type of HDMI cable has a limitation of how long it can reach. There's no specific "max" length a cable can go, but a limitation from the material they're made with.

HDMI Version 1.2 was released in 2006 and added support for higher resolutions, increased bandwidth, and additional color spaces. It also introduced the HDMI Ethernet Channel, which allows devices to share an Internet connection without a separate Ethernet cable. Version 1.2 is still in use today, but it has been superseded by later versions. HDMI Version 1.3 Like its namesake, HDMI includes both audio and video features. HDMI is a digital replacement for the analog VGA connector. HDMI specification defines the cable that carries both video and audio data. The SecurOMax HDMI cable measures 10ft in length and will be apt for you if you have an extended TV setup. The exterior is braided to prevent wear and tear, and the connectors have a solid build that fits well into the HDMI ports. Users have appreciated this cable for its picture quality, minimal connectivity issues, and solid construction. You may be paying considerably more, but here’s an HDMI cable that should serve you well for many years to come, since it supports the next big video format, 8K. With a 48Gbps connection and 120Hz refresh rate, the Snowkids cable is a smart choice for gamers, and the nylon braiding and aluminium alloy design looks like they offer serious durability.An HDCP 2.2 supporting HDMI cable won’t alone help you in streaming 4K protected content. Along with your cable, the other equipment like your gaming station, TV, and your streaming box also need to be HDCP 2.2 compatible.

HDMI 1.4 was released in March 2009 and added support for 4K x 2K resolution (3840×2160) at 24 Hz, 3D video at up to 4096×2160 resolution, and additional color spaces. It also added support for Audio Video Bridging (AVB), which allows for the transfer of high-bandwidth audio and video content over a standard Ethernet network. HDMI version 2.0 Colour can also be affected, as Category 1 and Category 2 cables haven’t got the bandwidth to convey the enhanced 10-bit colour depths, or Deep Colour, output by 4K Blu-ray players and 4K HDR consoles, let alone the 12-bit colour depth used by some Dolby Vision screens and 4K Blu-ray players.

While the design and construction of the cable might not make any difference to your image or sound quality (as long as it works properly), it will make it more robust and reliable, or affect how easy it is to connect your screen and source devices. With a bandwidth of 48 Gb/s, it supports high-resolution formats like 8K at 60 Hz, 4K at 120 Hz, and uncompressed video resolutions, all while delivering stunning Dynamic HDR and 3D visuals. After conducting our research and analysis, we have found that the Anker 8K HDMI 2.1 Cable offers exceptional performance and a range of impressive features.
