HDMI cable Unitek C11060BK-3M — HDMI Type A male to A male, 3 m, HDMI 2.1, 48 Gbit/s, ARC, black

Unitek C11060BK-3M is a 3 m HDMI Type A to Type A cable that implements the HDMI 2.1 feature set and supports up to 48 Gbit/s bandwidth. It carries both video (including 3D where supported by source and display) and multi‑channel audio, and includes support for Audio Return Channel (ARC). The cable is supplied with black male-to-male connectors and is intended for connecting TVs, monitors, game consoles, Blu‑ray players and AV receivers where HDMI 2.1 capability or high bandwidth is required.

Advantages

The cable provides high bandwidth transmission up to 48 Gbit/s, enabling higher frame rates and wider color/contrast handling consistent with HDMI 2.1. It supports advanced video modes such as 8K at 60 Hz and 4K at 120 Hz where the connected devices also support those modes, and it carries multi‑channel audio including return‑channel functionality. The construction and shielded design reduce electromagnetic interference and maintain signal integrity over its 3 m length.

Suitable for

• Connecting HDMI 2.1‑capable TVs and 8K or 4K displays to players and consoles
• Linking game consoles (for example systems that support higher refresh rates) to monitors or TVs
• Connecting Blu‑ray players, set‑top boxes and AV receivers where high bandwidth and ARC are required
• Home theatre setups that require multi‑channel audio and simplified audio return via ARC

When it may not be suitable

If either the source device or the display does not support HDMI 2.1 features such as 8K@60Hz or 4K@120Hz, the connection will fall back to the highest mode supported by both devices; the cable cannot force higher-resolution modes than the hardware supports. Also, for refresh rates above 120 Hz at certain resolutions, additional device features (for example Display Stream Compression on source and display) may be required to reach advertised maximums.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 3 m
• Connector type: HDMI Type A (male) to HDMI Type A (male)
• HDMI version: HDMI 2.1 feature set
• Maximum bandwidth: up to 48 Gbit/s
• Supported video modes: up to 8K@60Hz and 4K@120Hz (device dependent)
• Audio: multi‑channel audio and Audio Return Channel (ARC) support
• Color: black

How to use

Connect one HDMI Type A male end of the cable to the HDMI output on the source device (for example a game console, Blu‑ray player or AV receiver) and connect the other HDMI Type A male end to the HDMI input on the display device (TV or monitor). Ensure both connected devices are configured to use the desired resolution and refresh rate in their display settings. If using ARC, enable the ARC function in the TV and audio device menus and select the corresponding HDMI ARC input on the TV.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your source and display devices support HDMI 2.1 features you intend to use (8K/60Hz, 4K/120Hz, VRR, ALLM, DSC where applicable).
• Check whether your setup requires eARC specifically for advanced high‑bitrate audio formats; this cable supports ARC and high‑bandwidth audio transfer but eARC compatibility depends on connected equipment.
• Confirm that a 3 m cable length is appropriate for your installation and cable routing.

Usage recommendations

For best results, connect devices while powered off or follow the devices’ hot‑plug guidance, configure the highest common resolution and refresh rate in device menus, and enable ARC/eARC in both TV and audio equipment when using audio return. If you plan to use very high refresh rates or advanced HDR/audio formats, ensure both the source and display firmware are up to date.
