HDMI cable GEMBIRD 1.8 m — High Speed with Ethernet, 4K UHD 2160p, 3D, ARC, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD, HDMI CEC

GEMBIRD HDMI cable 1.8 m is a High Speed HDMI lead with Ethernet designed for transmission of UHD 2160p video and 3D signals between source devices and displays. The cable supports Audio Return Channel (ARC), HDMI CEC for basic device control and lossless multichannel audio formats such as Dolby TrueHD and DTS‑HD, making it suitable for home theatre setups and AV systems where high-resolution video and high-quality audio are required.

Advantages

This 1.8 m cable provides stable high-bandwidth connection for 4K UHD content and 3D playback while also carrying an Ethernet channel to enable device networking without a separate cable. Support for ARC simplifies audio routing from TV to AV receiver or soundbar, and HDMI CEC allows limited remote control interoperability between connected devices. Compatibility with lossless audio formats ensures preservation of multichannel sound quality for Blu‑ray discs and high-definition streams.

Suitable for

• Connecting 4K TVs to Blu‑ray players and media players
• Linking game consoles to UHD displays
• Connecting AV receivers or soundbars using ARC for audio return
• Home theatre setups requiring support for Dolby TrueHD and DTS‑HD

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1.8 m
• Performance class: High Speed with Ethernet
• Maximum video resolution supported: UHD 2160p (4K)
• 3D signal support
• Audio Return Channel (ARC) support
• HDMI CEC control support
• Lossless audio compatibility: Dolby TrueHD, DTS‑HD

How to use

Insert one HDMI connector into the HDMI output of the source device (such as a Blu‑ray player, game console or set‑top box) and the other connector into an HDMI input on the display or AV receiver. To use ARC, connect the cable between the TV's HDMI ARC input and the AV receiver or soundbar's HDMI ARC output and enable ARC in device settings if required. Enable HDMI CEC features in device menus to allow control functions to pass between compatible devices. No special drivers are required; the cable operates plug‑and‑play with compatible hardware.

Usage recommendations

For reliable 4K playback and full multichannel audio delivery, use the GEMBIRD HDMI cable for direct, short to medium length connections (1.8 m) between source and display devices, avoid excessive bending near the connectors, and ensure HDMI inputs on both devices support the required features (ARC, CEC and the target audio formats).
