UGREEN HD140 80402 1.5 m HDMI 2.1 Cable, 8K60/4K120

Overview

The UGREEN 80402 is a 1.5 m HDMI 2.1 cable from the HD140 range, with full-size HDMI plugs at both ends and a nylon-braided jacket. It carries up to 48 Gbps, enough for 8K at 60 Hz or 4K at 120 Hz, between a console, PC or set-top box and a TV, monitor or soundbar, with the gaming and film features HDMI 2.1 brings: variable refresh rate (VRR), auto low latency mode (ALLM), Dolby Vision and enhanced audio return channel (eARC). It is a passive copper cable that works either way round.

Is it right for you?

• Choose it for a console or gaming PC beside a TV or monitor that supports 4K at 120 Hz, VRR or ALLM, or for a soundbar that needs eARC.
• Earlier HDMI equipment runs at the highest mode both devices share, so it also serves as an everyday 4K cable.
• Both plugs are full-size HDMI. It does not fit USB-C, DisplayPort, Mini HDMI, Micro HDMI, DVI or VGA ports.

Key features

• HDMI 2.1 with up to 48 Gbps bandwidth, for 8K at 60 Hz or 4K at 120 Hz when the whole chain supports it.
• Passes dynamic high dynamic range (HDR), Dolby Vision and HDR10+ for film and TV picture quality.
• Passes VRR, ALLM, quick frame transport (QFT) and quick media switching (QMS), the gaming features that reduce tearing, lag and blank screens when the console and TV support them.
• eARC for full-quality audio from the TV to a soundbar or receiver.
• Passive copper construction with a nylon-braided outer jacket, with no external power needed.
• Non-directional: either plug can face the source or the display.

What else you need

Nothing beyond a source with a full-size HDMI output and a display or AV device with a full-size HDMI input. For 8K or 4K at 120 Hz, both devices and anything between them must support that mode.

Before you buy

• The cable is 1.5 m from plug to plug. Choose a route that suits that length without tension or sharp bends.
• Every receiver, switch, splitter, capture device, dock, adapter, wall plate or extension in the path must support the same bandwidth, HDR, HDCP and audio features.
• The game, console or graphics card firmware and the display’s input settings also have to support the mode you want.
• It does not add 8K, a higher refresh rate, HDR, VRR, eARC or an audio codec to equipment that lacks it, and it does not upscale, decode surround sound or convert other connectors.
