Overview

The UGREEN 80602 is a 3 m HDMI 2.1 cable with zinc alloy plug shells and a braided nylon jacket. It connects a current games console, gaming PC or set-top box to a 4K or 8K TV or monitor, carrying 48 Gbps for 8K at 60 Hz or 4K at 120 Hz with Dynamic HDR, Dolby Vision and eARC sound. It is sold as an Ultra certified HDMI 2.1 cable.

Is it right for you?

• Suits a PS5, Xbox Series X or S or gaming PC connected to a 120 Hz TV, and a home theatre with an eARC soundbar for Dolby Atmos.
• To get 4K at 120 Hz or 8K, the source, the display and any AV receiver in between must all support HDMI 2.1 at those modes, and the TV input you use must be an HDMI 2.1 port.
• Older HDMI equipment still works with it, at its own maximum resolution.
• 3 m suits a console or player a few metres from the TV. For a much longer run, a fibre optic HDMI cable may be needed.

Key features

• HDMI 2.1 with bandwidth up to 48 Gbps.
• Supports 8K at 60 Hz and 50 Hz, and 4K at 120 Hz and 100 Hz, for high refresh gaming and 8K TVs.
• Dynamic HDR and Dolby Vision on compatible TVs and sources.
• eARC (enhanced audio return channel) for object-based sound such as Dolby Atmos pass-through to a soundbar or receiver.
• 3D support.
• Zinc alloy connector shells and a nylon braided jacket for durability.
• 3 m long, full-size HDMI at both ends.

What else you need

HDMI ports on both devices. It works with PS5, Xbox Series X and S, Xbox One, the Nintendo Switch dock, gaming PCs, streaming boxes, soundbars and TVs. For HDMI 2.1 modes, every device in the chain must support them.

Before you buy

• 4K at 120 Hz and 8K need HDMI 2.1 support in the source, the display and any receiver, and an HDMI 2.1 input on the TV.
• Longer runs than 3 m may need a fibre optic HDMI cable rather than a copper one.
