How to use

Connect one HDMI Type A connector to the HDMI output of your source device and the other to the HDMI input of your display device. Ensure both devices are powered on and set to the correct HDMI input. For optimal performance keep the cable free from tight bends and avoid placing it under heavy objects that could deform the jacket. No additional drivers are required; the connected devices will negotiate the supported resolution and audio format automatically within the cable's transfer capabilities.

Recommendations

Use this 0.5 m HDMI cable for short-distance connections where a neat, low-profile installation is preferred. For longer distances or higher bandwidth needs (such as 4K at high refresh rates), select a cable specified for higher data rates. Avoid excessive bending near the connectors and route the cable to prevent pinching or sharp kinks.
