How to use

Connect one HDMI Type A connector to the HDMI output on your source device (set-top box, console, Blu-ray player or PC) and the other connector to the HDMI input on your display or AV receiver. If using an ARC-enabled TV and receiver, plug the cable into the HDMI port labelled ARC on both devices to enable audio return functionality. Ensure both devices are powered on and set to the correct input/output channels in their settings menus.

Recommendations

Avoid tight bending or kinking of the cable and keep it away from heat sources or sharp edges. For optimal performance, route the cable to minimize strain on connectors and inspect contacts periodically for dust or debris; clean gently if necessary.
