How to use

Insert one HDMI Type A connector into the HDMI output of the source device (for example a set-top box, gaming console or laptop) and the other connector into the HDMI input of the display device (TV, monitor or projector). Ensure connectors are fully seated and avoid bending the cable sharply near the connectors. For best results, connect devices while powered off or follow device manufacturer instructions for hot-plugging HDMI connections.

Recommendations

For stable 4K@60Hz and 3D playback, keep cable runs short and avoid tightly coiling the cable. If routing through walls or conduits, verify bend radius recommendations and avoid exposure to excessive heat. Clean connector contacts periodically if used in dusty environments to maintain optimal signal quality.
