HDMI cable TB AKTBXVH21FLAT20 v2.1 flat 2 m black

TB AKTBXVH21FLAT20 is a 2 m flat HDMI cable compliant with HDMI 2.1 specification, designed for connecting modern displays, TVs and AV equipment. The flat profile reduces bulk and improves routing options when running the cable along walls, behind furniture or under carpets. It supports the higher bandwidths enabled by HDMI 2.1 while keeping a low-profile, flexible form factor suitable for home and office installations that require compact cabling solutions.

Advantages

The flat construction of this HDMI cable makes it easier to conceal and route in tight spaces compared with standard round cables. Compliance with HDMI 2.1 provides support for increased bandwidth, allowing for higher-resolution and higher-refresh-rate signals where source and display devices also support those features. The cable's length of 2 m is balanced for typical living room or desk arrangements, offering enough reach without excess slack.

Suitable for

• Connecting televisions and AV receivers in living rooms and media centres
• Linking monitors to laptops or desktop graphics outputs for home and office workstations
• Installing a low-profile cable under carpets, along skirting boards or behind furniture
• Temporary setups for presentations or events where a discreet cable is preferred

When it may not be suitable

This flat HDMI cable is designed for short to medium runs; very long cable runs that require signal repeaters or active cabling may need a different solution. If your setup requires features beyond the cable's passive capabilities—such as long-distance transmission with guaranteed signal integrity at maximum HDMI 2.1 bandwidths—an active fibre HDMI cable or dedicated signal booster should be considered.

Key specifications

• Cable type: Flat HDMI cable
• HDMI version: 2.1 compatible
• Length: 2 metres
• Colour: Black
• Connector type: HDMI A male to HDMI A male
• Intended use: Video and audio signal transmission for consumer AV and computer displays

How to use

Insert one end of the cable into the HDMI output of the source device (for example a Blu-ray player, game console or PC) and insert the other end into the HDMI input of the display or AV receiver. Ensure connectors are fully seated to establish a reliable connection. When routing the flat cable, run it along edges, under skirting boards or beneath carpets as needed; avoid sharp bends and excessive tension at the connector ends. Power cycle connected devices if the display does not detect the signal immediately.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify both source and display support the HDMI 2.1 features you intend to use (e.g., higher resolutions and refresh rates).
• Assess the required cable length and routing path to ensure 2 m is sufficient for your installation.
• Determine whether a passive flat cable is suitable or if you need an active or fibre HDMI cable for longer distances or enhanced signal integrity.

Usage recommendations

Use the TB AKTBXVH21FLAT20 for typical home and office connections where a discreet, low-profile HDMI cable is required. Avoid tight folding or repeated stress at connector ends and keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources for stable signal transmission.
