White Braided 8K HDMI 2.1 Active Optical Cable
A white 8K HDMI 2.1 active optical cable with a red-and-black braided jacket. The braid takes the knocks that a plain jacket does not, and the white housings keep it looking tidy in a living room or meeting room. Ends are marked Source and Display.
This is an active optical HDMI cable, built for distance. The picture travels over fibre for the long stretch, with copper kept for the low-speed control lines. That is what lets it carry a high-bandwidth picture further than a passive copper cable of the same length, and it picks up less interference along the way. The jacket is braided in red and black, which is tougher and more snag-resistant than a smooth jacket — useful where the cable gets moved, pulled through trunking, or run across a floor. The housings are white, printed “HDMI”, with Source / Display labels and a small direction arrow on each. It only works one way round, so check the labels before you plug it in. On performance: versions of this cable are rated up to 48 Gbps, 8K at 60 Hz and 4K at high refresh rates. That only holds with HDMI 2.1 equipment on both ends and with the validated cable version, so confirm the version and length you are ordering before you promise a customer a specific number. Good for an 8K TV fed from a rack in another room, a 4K high-refresh gaming setup, a big presentation screen, or any run where the source and the display sit a long way apart.
