Kramer 97-0131025 wire cap connector

Flexible HDMI cable for installers

The Kramer 97-0131025 is a flexible HDMI male-to-male cable designed for professional AV installations. It carries Ethernet alongside standard audio and video signals in a single run. The 25-foot length suits typical rack-to-display or wall-plate wiring jobs. Installers who need a pliable cable for tight conduit paths will find it practical.

Male connectors and flexible jacket

Both ends feature standard HDMI male connectors moulded for a secure friction fit. The flexible jacket reduces strain when the cable is bent around corners or pulled through raceways. This construction helps maintain signal integrity during and after installation. The design avoids stiff sections that can stress panel ports or wall plates over time.

Ethernet channel limited to HDMI spec

The integrated Ethernet channel operates only within the HDMI Ethernet Channel specification, so both connected devices must support HEC for the data link to function. Many consumer displays and sources do not implement this feature, leaving the Ethernet conductors unused. The cable does not replace a dedicated network cable for general LAN traffic. Buyers who need guaranteed high-speed data between arbitrary network nodes should plan for a separate Ethernet run.
