Review on Premium 6ft 24AWG CL2 High Speed HDMI Cable Male to Female Extension - Black by Monoprice Commercial Series by Todd Look

Revainrating 5 out of 5

High quality, tested at 2160p/60Hz

Recommended by Oculus in a blog post to extend the range of the Rift headset. I had tried a few other decent quality HDMI extensions before purchasing and none of them worked. This cable works perfectly. Due to the thickness of the cable, I have to imagine that the wires are actually relatively large and well shielded. I also bought the 6ft version and used it to extend another run of my HTPC at 2160p/60Hz. That also worked great. While cable thickness and weight are great when it comes to durability and signal quality, this can be a negative factor for your application, when you need a tight bend radius or a low profile cable (e.g. under a carpet). constantly. It can also put a lot of strain on the HDMI port it's plugged into. I'm certainly not deducting stars for this, but I'm just mentioning it as something to consider when making a purchasing decision.

Pros
  • Accessories and consumables
