Features

HDMI Cable Helps Your Gaming, Home Theater or Digital Signage Setup Get 8K-Ready
This HDMI cable (M/M) securely connects laptops, tablets, PCs, Blu-ray players, game consoles or satellite/cable TV boxes to HDTVs, HD monitors, projectors or home theater receivers. Because the cable uses optical fiber, it can transmit HDMI signals longer distances with no latency or loss. It also eliminates any EMI/RFI line noise that can interfere with your audio/video signal and disrupt the performance of your connected equipment.

Enjoy the Clarity of 8K Video with 7.1-Channel Surround Sound and 4:4:4 Color
The P568F-20M-8K6 supports UHD 8K video resolutions and Dolby 7.1-channel surround sound. It supports Dynamic HDR, which maintains premium contrast and color in each scene or even each frame. HDCP 2.3 compliance allows you to stream the latest 4K Amazon and Netflix content with no complications. This cable also supports 4:4:4 chroma subsampling for top-level PC gaming or using your HDTV as a PC monitor.

Take Advantage of the Most Advanced HDMI Features for Premier Picture Quality
This 8K-ready cable allows your compatible hardware to deliver up-to-date HDMI features, such as eARC (enhanced Audio Return Channel), which passes full-resolution surround sound signals to your speakers without compressing them. QMS (Quick Media Switching) switches from one frame rate to another without the delay of a blank screen between them. ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode), VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) and QFT (Quick Frame Transport) reduce latency, refresh rate and lag for a more vivid gaming experience.

Advanced Fiber Cable Is Easier to Install than Copper
Because the fiber cable is slimmer and more flexible than standard copper HDMI cables, the P568F-20M-8K6 is easier to install around corners and in hard-to-reach spaces behind equipment. It draws power from the connected device, so no external power supply is needed to transmit the HDMI signal across the longer distances unique to fiber optic cabling. Note: the cable must be installed in the correct direction to function properly, so please check the Source and Display labels on the connectors before installation.

Invest in Quality Construction for Reliable Performance
You’re expecting this 8K cable to last a long time, which is why it has been constructed with high-quality materials. Contacts are gold-plated to resist corrosion. Double shielding reduces line noise (EMI/RFI) that can disrupt signals traveling through the HDMI cord. The plenum-rated jacket has low smoke and flame characteristics, making it suitable for premise applications in ceilings, walls and ducts.

System Requirements

  • Both source and display devices must be compatible with HDMI 2.1 standards to access HDMI 2.1 features
  • Both source and display devices must be compatible with 8K standards to watch 8K video
