Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure both the source device (e.g., gaming console, PC, Blu-ray player) and the display device (e.g., TV, monitor, projector) are powered off.
- Firmly insert one end of the HDMI cable into the HDMI output port of the source device.
- Firmly insert the other end into the HDMI input port of the display device.
- Power on the devices and select the correct HDMI input on your display.
Compatibility:
This cable is designed to be backward compatible with all previous HDMI versions (2.1, 2.0, 1.4). However, to utilize its full 96Gbps bandwidth and 16K resolution capabilities, both the source and display devices must support HDMI 2.2 specifications or higher. For features like 4K@240Hz or 8K@120Hz, ensure your devices support these resolutions and refresh rates over HDMI.
Care:
- Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable, as this can damage the internal wiring.
- Keep the connectors clean. If dusty, use a dry, soft cloth or a burst of compressed air.
- Do not expose the cable to excessive heat, moisture, or direct sunlight.
- Always unplug by holding the connector, not by pulling the cable itself.
