Product Information

Full details

The Kenable 008181 is a 2-meter, black HDMI cable designed for users needing a low-profile connection behind TVs and other devices. Its primary benefit is the right-angle connector, which allows for easier routing and reduced strain in tight spaces, especially with wall-mounted TVs. A potential caveat is its HDMI 1.4 version, which may not support the very latest video features like 8K resolution.

FAQs

What is the main advantage of the right-angle connector?

The right-angle connector allows the cable to plug into HDMI ports that are very close to a wall or other obstructions, preventing the cable from sticking out too far and potentially causing damage or limiting how close a device can be placed.

Is this cable suitable for 4K resolution?

This cable is HDMI 1.4 compliant. While HDMI 1.4 can support 4K, it is typically limited to 30Hz (4K@30Hz). For higher refresh rates (e.g., 4K@60Hz or higher) or newer 4K features, an HDMI 2.0 or higher cable would be recommended.

Can I use this cable for a PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X?

You can use this cable, but it will not support the advanced gaming features like 4K@120Hz or Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) that these consoles offer, as those require HDMI 2.1. It will work for basic 4K@30Hz or lower resolutions.

How flexible is the flat cable?

The flat cable is designed for better flexibility than standard round HDMI cables, allowing it to be routed more easily through tight spaces, around corners, and under carpets without kinking as easily.

What is the cable length?

The cable is 2 meters long.

Does this cable support 3D?

Yes, this cable is HDMI 1.4 compliant, which includes support for 3D video transmission.

How do I clean the connectors?

Gently wipe the gold-plated connectors with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using liquids or abrasive materials.

Troubleshooting

No picture or sound is displayed

Ensure both ends of the cable are securely connected. Verify the correct HDMI input is selected on the display device. Try a different HDMI port on your TV or source device. Test with another HDMI cable to rule out a faulty cable.

Intermittent signal loss or flickering screen

Check for any damage to the cable or connectors. Ensure the cable is not bent too sharply or under strain. Try repositioning the cable to avoid potential interference. Clean the gold-plated connectors with a dry cloth.

3D functionality is not working

Confirm that both your source device and display support 3D and are configured for 3D playback. Ensure the content you are trying to play is in 3D format.

Poor video or audio quality

Clean the HDMI connectors on both the cable and the devices. Ensure the cable is fully seated in the ports. If connecting over a longer distance than intended, consider a higher-spec cable if signal degradation is suspected, though 2m is typically not an issue for HDMI 1.4.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Space-saving right-angle design perfect for tight installations.
  • Flat cable is highly flexible and easy to hide.
  • Gold-plated connectors ensure reliable signal quality.
  • Supports 3D video for an immersive viewing experience.
  • Durable build with molded connectors.

Cons

  • HDMI 1.4 standard may limit support for the latest high-resolution formats (e.g., 4K @ 120Hz, 8K).
  • Only one connector is angled, limiting flexibility if both ends require tight routing.
  • 2-meter length might be too short for some longer setups.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure both the source device (e.g., Blu-ray player, console) and the display device (e.g., TV, projector) are powered off.
  2. Connect the straight HDMI Type A connector to the source device's HDMI output.
  3. Connect the angled HDMI Type A connector to the display device's HDMI input, ensuring the angle allows for proper fit.
  4. Power on the source device, followed by the display device.
  5. Select the correct HDMI input on your display.

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with any device featuring an HDMI Type A port.
  • Supports HDMI 1.4 features including 1080p resolution, 3D video, and Audio Return Channel (ARC).
  • Backward compatible with earlier HDMI versions.

Care:

  • Keep connectors clean and free from dust. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning.
  • Avoid bending the cable sharply, especially at the connector points.
  • Do not expose the cable to excessive moisture or extreme temperatures.
