Will this work between a computer and monitor?
A shopper
on May 10, 2023
BEST ANSWER: Yes, Assuming both the computer and monitor have HDMI ports. I use it with a Raspberry Pi singl4e board computer and a standard monitor. (On a Little Raspberry Pi, you might have to go tweak some settings to boost the signal, but when using it on my laptop that has never been required)

I have it between my computer and my movie projector and it work great. If your monitor has an HDMI port it should work just fine.

What is the gauge of the Cabernet Ultra 30 foot cable? Does this truly have a authentic HDMI2..0 spec?
A shopper

BEST ANSWER: Hello Shoppers,
The Luxe and Cabernet Series of active HDMI® Cables use the previous generation of 18Gbps chipsets. They were designed and developed long before the HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 hardware standard was ratified. These cables are built and are fully capable of meeting 18Gbps bandwidth requirements on applications where HDCP 2.2 compliance is not necessary. These chipsets are considered legacy technology which may cause compatibility issues with some newer HDCP 2.2 enabled devices. If you are having issues with HDCP or overall connectivity in your existing system, we recommend our DynamicView series HDMI Cables which have updated and current chipsets that are fully compatible with all current hardware and copy protection standards.

is this flexible where I can run it in a 1" raceway and bend 90 degrees around wall to ceiling?

BEST ANSWER: Cable yes, ends/connectors no. The ends are large and clunky, and I had to drill large holes to go through bulkheads.

Monoprice 4K High Speed HDMI Cable 30ft - CL2 In Wall Rated 18Gbps Active Black

Monoprice DisplayPort 1.2a to 4K HDMI Active Adapter, White
BEST ANSWER: Thank you for your question. Yes, you would be able to use an active HDMI cable along with the DisplayPort to HDMI adapter. You would just want to be sure to have the source end of the active cable in the HDMI port on the adapter and the TV end of the cable plugged into your display. The active HDMI cable will not work plugged in backwards.

Can this be used with keystone on either end with additional non-active hdmi cables and still get 4k 444?
Dan S
on Jan 5, 2023
BEST ANSWER: As long as they are not too long, and they are cables rated for 4K60HZ 4:4:4. Please note barrels (barrels need to be rated for this also, most are not even close) and other cables shorten the total length that HDMI can Pass. significantly. a 25'er with a 10' cable on either end, is probably not a problem. A 100'er probably not..

Pretty disappointed this didn't do 4k 60hz but 4k 30hz with my PC. I don't know much about repeaters and all that but is there anyway I can achieve 4k 60hz with something like that?

I'm planning to use this cable in-wall to connect the wall plate behind my receiver to the wall plate behind my 4k projector. This means I'll need short (3-ft or less) HDMI cables to attach the receiver to its wall plate and the projector to its wall plate. Will those short jumpers need to be "active" HDMI cables as well, or will passive cables work?

ManCave Home Studio Live-streaming to the World
From my ManCave Home Studio - I have used this HDMI cord to connect my Apple dongle/iPhone 13 Pro Max direct into my ATEM Mini switcher and Live Stream for two hours with 100% zero latency even as I moved around in a low light environment and maintained super clear picture broadcasting to the world.

Great cable. Solved the issue with our Thinkpad communicating with our overhead projector. I didn't realize it was a directional cable when first purchased but I'm happy it is.

Quality at a fair price
I was tired of running out of data when mirroring my phone to the TV. MonoPrice was receiving good reviews across major sources. I needed a longer 30ft HDMI cable, it was also recommended I get an Active cable, to direct connect my iPhone to the TV. I found MonoPrice offered various levels of quality. I chose a medium quality 18.8 gbps, I bought two. I received them in just a couple of days, when I received them they were individually packaged with test information attached. The cables looked of very good quality, each end was clearly marked with labels on the cable and etching directly on the connectors identifying "SOURCE" and "TV". We have been using them now for two months with no hang-ups, buffering or loss of signal. I would highly recommend!
