Product Information

Full details

This 7.5m Lindy Active HDMI 4K60 Cable is designed for users needing to transmit high-quality 4K video and audio over longer distances without signal degradation. Its key benefit is enabling reliable 4K@60Hz resolution and 18Gbps bandwidth over an extended range, eliminating the need for separate extenders. A key consideration is that these active cables cannot be daisy-chained together.

FAQs

What is the main advantage of an active HDMI cable like this one?

The main advantage is its ability to transmit HDMI signals reliably over longer distances (7.5 meters in this case) than standard passive HDMI cables. It achieves this using an integrated chipset that amplifies the signal.

Can I connect two of these active HDMI cables together to get an even longer distance?

No, active HDMI cables cannot be connected together or 'daisy-chained'. Each active cable requires a direct connection from the source to the display.

Which connector should I plug into my TV or monitor?

The connector marked with "display" must be connected to your monitor or screen. The other connector plugs into your source device (like a computer or media player).

Does this cable support HDR content?

Yes, it supports the REC.2020 color space, which is crucial for High Dynamic Range (HDR) content, providing enhanced contrast and more lifelike colors.

What is the maximum resolution and refresh rate supported?

This cable supports resolutions up to 4096x2160@60Hz (4K@60Hz) with a data transfer rate of 18 Gbit/s.

Does the cable support Audio Return Channel (ARC) and HDMI Ethernet Channel (HEC)?

Yes, the cable is compliant with HDMI 2.0 specifications and supports both ARC and HEC functionality.

What is the warranty period for this cable?

The product comes with a 2-year warranty.

Can I use this cable with older HDMI devices?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible with earlier HDMI versions, but it will operate at the specifications supported by the older devices.

Troubleshooting

No signal is displayed on the screen.

Verify that the connector marked "display" is connected to the monitor or screen. Ensure both ends are securely plugged into the correct ports on the source and display devices. Check that both devices are powered on and set to the correct input source. Confirm that the source device is outputting a signal compatible with the cable's capabilities (e.g., 4K@60Hz).

Intermittent signal loss or flickering video.

Check for any physical damage to the cable or connectors. Ensure the cable is not bent at a sharp angle. Try connecting the cable to different HDMI ports on your devices. If possible, test with a different HDMI cable to rule out an issue with the cable itself. Ensure the source device is not overheating.

Audio is not working or is distorted.

Confirm that your source device and display support the audio format being transmitted. Ensure the cable is fully seated in both ports. Check the audio settings on your source device and display. Test with a different audio source or settings if possible.

Video resolution is lower than expected (e.g., 1080p instead of 4K).

Verify that both the source device and the display device support 4K@60Hz resolution. Ensure the HDMI output settings on the source device are configured for 4K@60Hz. Check that the data transfer rate (18 Gbps) is not being limited by other components in the signal chain.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enables long-distance 4K transmission without signal loss.
  • Supports full HDMI 2.0 features including 18Gbps bandwidth and 4K@60Hz.
  • Active chipset is integrated into the connector for a cleaner installation.
  • Supports advanced audio formats and CEC functionality.
  • Durable build quality with gold-plated connectors.

Cons

  • Cannot be connected or 'daisy-chained' with other active HDMI cables.
  • Requires correct orientation: 'display' connector must be connected to the screen.
  • Connector size may be an issue for deeply recessed HDMI ports on some devices.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure both your source device (e.g., PC, Blu-ray player) and display device (e.g., TV, projector) are powered off.
  2. Connect the HDMI Type A (Standard) male connector marked "display" to your monitor or screen.
  3. Connect the other HDMI Type A (Standard) male connector to your source device.
  4. Power on your source and display devices.

Important: Connecting the cable in the incorrect orientation (i.e., not connecting the "display" end to the screen) will result in no signal.

Compatibility:

  • Complies with HDMI 2.0 specifications.
  • Supports 4K@60Hz resolutions (4096x2160@60Hz).
  • Supports 18Gbps data transfer rate.
  • Compatible with devices supporting HEC (HDMI Ethernet Channel), ARC (Audio Return Channel), and CEC (Consumer Electronics Control).
  • Backward compatible with earlier HDMI versions.
  • Note: Ensure your display's HDMI port can accommodate the connector size, especially if it is recessed.

Care:

  • Keep connectors clean and free from dust and debris. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning.
  • Avoid bending the cable sharply, especially near the connectors, to prevent internal damage.
  • Store in a cool, dry place when not in use, within the specified storage temperature range of -10 to 60 °C.
  • Operating temperature range is -20 to 80 °C.
