Nippon Labs Ultra High Speed Certified 8K HDMI 2.1 Cable, 48Gbps 4K 120Hz, 3–15 ft

An Ultra High Speed certified HDMI 2.1 cable with a Type A male gold plated connector on each end, carrying up to 48Gbps. That headroom is what 8K at 60Hz and 4K at 120Hz need, so this is the cable between a current console, Blu-ray player, AV receiver or graphics card and a TV or monitor that can actually show those modes. Buyers running a PS5, an Xbox Series console or an RTX or RX card into a high refresh display are the ones who see the difference.

FAQ

Will this give me 4K at 120Hz? Yes, provided both devices support it. The cable is rated for 8K at 60Hz or 4K at 120Hz and carries up to 48Gbps, but the source and the display still have to offer that mode themselves.

Can I use it for eARC to my receiver? Yes. eARC is supported, along with CEC, HDCP 2.2, 3D and VR, and the cable passes DTS-HD Master Audio, Dolby TrueHD and Dolby Atmos.

Is the 15 ft version built the same as the short ones? No. The longer lengths use heavier conductors to hold the signal up: the 3 ft and 6 ft use 30AWG pairs at roughly 6.0mm outside diameter, the 10 ft moves to 28AWG pairs at 6.7mm, and the 15 ft uses 25AWG pairs with UL20276 rated construction at 8.0mm.

Will it work with older gear? Yes. It is backward compatible with all earlier HDMI versions and works with Blu-ray and DVD players, AV receivers, older PlayStation and Xbox consoles, the Wii and Switch, and any other HDMI enabled device.
