FAQs
What is the maximum resolution supported by this cable?
This HDMI 1.4 cable supports 4K resolutions, which is significantly higher than standard 1080p Full HD.
Can I use this cable with a splitter?
This cable is designed for direct connections only. Using it with HDMI splitters, converters, or faceplates is not recommended and may result in poor performance or signal loss.
What is the benefit of gold-plated connectors?
Gold plating on the connectors helps to reduce signal loss and prevent corrosion, ensuring a more reliable and long-lasting connection.
Does this cable support 3D content?
Yes, this HDMI 1.4 cable supports major 3D video formats, allowing for true 3D gaming and home theatre experiences.
What is the Audio Return Channel (ARC)?
ARC allows audio to travel upstream from your TV to a soundbar or AV receiver, simplifying your setup by reducing the number of cables needed.
How long is the cable?
The cable length is 5 meters.
What HDMI version is this cable?
This cable is compliant with the HDMI 1.4 version.
Troubleshooting
No picture or sound
Ensure both ends of the HDMI cable are securely plugged into the correct ports on both devices. Verify that the correct input source is selected on the display. Try a different HDMI port on your devices. Test with another known working HDMI cable to rule out cable failure.
Intermittent signal loss or flickering screen
Check for any sharp bends or kinks in the cable. Ensure connectors are clean and free of debris. If using a longer run or connecting through a less-than-ideal pathway, consider a shorter or higher-quality cable rated for your specific resolution. Confirm direct connection and avoid splitters/converters.
Cannot use ARC or Ethernet features
Confirm that both your source and display devices explicitly support HDMI Ethernet Channel and Audio Return Channel (ARC) respectively. Ensure these features are enabled in the settings menu of both devices. Verify you are using the correct HDMI ports labeled 'ARC' or 'Ethernet' if applicable on your devices.
Poor video or audio quality (e.g., pixelation, distorted sound)
Ensure the cable is not damaged and connectors are clean. Verify that the connected devices are outputting a signal compatible with the cable's capabilities (e.g., not attempting to push 4K data through a connection that can't handle it). For best results, use for direct connections as intended.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Simply plug the standard HDMI Type A male connectors into the corresponding HDMI ports on your source device (e.g., Blu-ray player, gaming console, computer) and your display device (e.g., TV, monitor, projector). Ensure the connections are secure. This cable is intended for direct connections only.
Compatibility: Fully compatible with devices supporting the HDMI 1.4 standard, including support for 4K resolution, 3D video, Audio Return Channel (ARC), and HDMI Ethernet Channel. It is backward compatible with earlier HDMI versions, though advanced features will be limited by the lowest version supported by connected devices.
Care: To maintain optimal performance, keep the connectors clean and free from dust. Avoid kinking or sharply bending the cable, which can damage the internal wiring. Store the cable in a dry place when not in use. Use a dry or slightly damp cloth to clean the cable exterior if necessary; do not use harsh chemicals.
