HDMI extension cable ShiverPeaks BASIC-S 1 m, HDMI male to HDMI female, 4K support

The ShiverPeaks BASIC-S HDMI extension cable extends existing HDMI connections by one metre, providing a simple, shielded HDMI male to HDMI female interface with support for 4K resolution. It is designed to add reach between source and display devices without the need to replace the original HDMI cable, preserving the current connection while allowing more flexible device placement in home entertainment systems, office workstations and AV installations.

Advantages

This 1 m HDMI extension cable offers a straightforward way to increase connection length while maintaining signal integrity for high-resolution video. The cable features a shielded design to reduce electromagnetic interference and a male-to-female connector pair that plugs directly onto an existing HDMI lead, preserving the original plug and avoiding wear on device ports. Support for 4K content ensures compatibility with modern TVs, monitors and media players.

Suitable for

• Extending the reach of an HDMI cable between a set-top box, game console or media player and a TV or monitor
• Adding length in desktop or meeting-room setups where the display is positioned away from the source
• Temporary AV installations where replacement of the full HDMI cable is impractical
• Home entertainment systems and media centers that require an extra metre of cable without altering the installed wiring

Key specifications

• Connector type: HDMI male to HDMI female
• Length: 1 m
• Video support: up to 4K resolution
• Cable construction: shielded to reduce interference
• Colour: black

How to use

Insert the HDMI male plug of the extension cable into the HDMI port of the source device or into the existing HDMI cable’s male connector where additional reach is required, then connect the device or display to the female end. Ensure both connectors are fully seated to maintain a stable signal. For best results, avoid sharp bends and keep the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference. The extension is compatible with commonly used HDMI cable setups and does not require additional configuration.

Recommendations

Use the extension for short runs and to avoid strain on device ports; for longer distances or complex multi-signal setups, consider a dedicated long HDMI cable or an active/extender solution. Check device compatibility for 4K frame rate and HDR features, as extension cables support physical resolution capability but do not alter device-specific signal limitations.
