FAQs

What is HDMI 2.1?

HDMI 2.1 is a significant upgrade to the HDMI specification, offering higher bandwidth (48Gbps), support for higher resolutions (up to 8K/60Hz and 10K), higher refresh rates (up to 120Hz at 4K), and advanced features like eARC, VRR, and ALLM.

Is this cable certified for HDMI 2.1?

Yes, this is a Kenable Certified Ultra High Speed HDMI 2.1 cable. This certification guarantees it meets the stringent performance requirements for HDMI 2.1 standards and includes an official certification label.

Can I use this cable with my older 4K TV?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible with older HDMI specifications, including HDMI 2.0. However, you will only be able to utilize features supported by your older TV, such as 4K resolution at 60Hz.

What is the bandwidth of this cable?

This cable supports a maximum bandwidth of 48Gbps, which is essential for uncompressed 8K video or high-frame-rate 4K video.

What is eARC?

eARC stands for Enhanced Audio Return Channel. It allows your TV to send advanced audio formats, like Dolby Atmos or DTS:X, from its built-in apps or connected devices back to your soundbar or AV receiver through a single HDMI cable.

Will this cable improve my gaming experience?

Yes, if you have an HDMI 2.1 compatible gaming console (like PS5 or Xbox Series X) and a compatible display, this cable enables features like 4K/120Hz gaming, Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), and Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) for a smoother, more responsive gaming experience.

What does 'Ultra High Speed Certified' mean?

It means the cable has passed rigorous testing by an HDMI Forum Authorized Testing Center to ensure it meets all HDMI 2.1 specifications, guaranteeing performance for high resolutions, refresh rates, and bandwidth.

Troubleshooting

No picture or intermittent signal

Ensure the cable is fully inserted into both the source and display ports. Try a different HDMI port on your display. Verify that both devices support the resolution and refresh rate being used. Test with another known-good HDMI cable to rule out cable failure.

Reduced resolution or refresh rate (e.g., only 4K/60Hz instead of 4K/120Hz)

Confirm that both your source device and display are set to the desired higher resolution and refresh rate in their respective settings menus. Ensure the cable is connected to an HDMI 2.1 compatible port on both devices. Check for firmware updates for your devices.

No audio over eARC

Make sure the HDMI cable is connected to the designated eARC ports on both your TV and your soundbar/AV receiver. Enable eARC in the audio settings of both devices. Ensure your audio device supports the audio format being sent.

Gaming features like VRR or ALLM not working

Verify that VRR and ALLM are enabled in the settings of your source device (console/PC) and your display. Ensure the cable is connected to an HDMI 2.1 port on both devices and that both devices support these specific HDMI 2.1 features.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure both your source device (e.g., gaming console, Blu-ray player, PC) and display (e.g., TV, monitor) have HDMI 2.1 ports.
  2. Connect one end of the cable to the output port of your source device and the other end to the input port of your display.
  3. If using eARC, connect the cable between the eARC-enabled HDMI ports on your TV and your soundbar/AV receiver.

  • Backward Compatibility: Fully backward compatible with older HDMI versions (1.4, 2.0), though features will be limited by the older standard.
