Description

StarTech HDMI21-CBL-SLIM-6F Ultra Slim HDMI 2.1 Cable

Overview

The StarTech HDMI21-CBL-SLIM-6F is a 6-foot (1.8m) HDMI 2.1 cable engineered for high-bandwidth video transmission, supporting resolutions up to 8K at 60Hz or 4K at 120Hz. Its ultra-slim and flexible TPE jacket makes it ideal for installations where space is constrained or where frequent cable bending is required, such as in tight AV racks or behind wall-mounted displays. This passive cable ensures reliable data transfer for demanding applications like high-resolution surveillance monitoring, gaming, or professional video editing.

Compatibility

This HDMI 2.1 cable is compatible with any device featuring an HDMI port, including but not limited to: high-resolution surveillance NVRs and DVRs, professional video monitors, gaming consoles (e.g., PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X), high-end PCs, and AV receivers. It supports the full 48Gbps bandwidth required for uncompressed 8K video and advanced features like HDR10+ and eARC. It also supports 7.1 channel and 32 channel audio, ensuring full surround sound capabilities.

Installation Notes

With a cable OD of just 0.2 inches (4.0 mm) and a 34 AWG wire gauge, this cable offers superior flexibility for tight installations. The TPE jacket material provides durability and resistance to temperature fluctuations within its operating range of 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). Gold-plated connectors ensure a secure, corrosion-resistant connection for optimal signal integrity. While passive, the cable is rated for the full HDMI 2.1 specification, including support for DSC compressed resolutions up to 10K 60Hz.
