Cables To Go 56781 HDMI cable 1 ft black

Cable purpose and audience

This High Speed HDMI cable connects two HDMI devices over a short 1 foot distance. It suits installers who need a tidy link between a source and a display or receiver in a rack, behind a wall-mounted TV, or on a desktop where excess slack would be a nuisance. The male-to-male connectors fit standard HDMI ports on laptops, consoles, Blu-ray players and streaming boxes. It is not for runs that require more length or for buyers who need an angled or locking connector.

Signal integrity and shielding

Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and maintain low contact resistance for reliable 10.2 Gbps throughput. Foil and braid shielding attenuates external noise across the 300 kHz to 5.1 GHz range, with measured attenuation below 5 dB up to 2.475 GHz and below 12 dB up to 4.125 GHz. The cable meets DC resistance of 300 V, dielectric strength of AC 500 V per minute and insulation resistance of 100 Ohm. No active electronics are present, so power draw is negligible and the cable runs silently.

Bundled extras and practical impact

The cable ships in C2G branded packaging that protects the connectors during handling and storage. No adapters, software discs or licence keys are included. The Ethernet channel allows compatible devices to share a network connection without a separate cable, simplifying firmware updates or smart-TV features. Gold plating and double shielding preserve signal quality over repeated insertions, reducing the chance of intermittent picture or audio dropouts in permanent installations.
