12 ft HDMI cable for 4K displays

This 12 foot HDMI cable carries 4K video at 60 Hz with an 18 Gbps bandwidth rating. It uses 28 AWG copper conductors and gold-plated male connectors on both ends. The black jacket is CL2 rated for in-wall installation where fire codes apply. It suits home cinema, gaming consoles or office displays needing a dependable link.

Thermals noise and power draw

As a passive copper cable it generates no heat, makes no sound and draws no power of its own. Ferrite cores fitted at each end suppress electromagnetic and radio frequency interference. The CL2 rated jacket is designed to burn more slowly, meeting building fire safety requirements. Normal use simply requires a secure connection at each device.

What the bundled items change

The package contains only the cable itself with its integrated ferrite cores and gold-plated connectors. No adapters, software or additional accessories are included. The lifetime warranty from Monoprice covers defects in materials and workmanship for as long as you own the cable. Buyers who need right-angle connectors, Ethernet channel support or lengths beyond 12 feet should look at other models.

Questions about this item

How do I route the 12 ft cable through a wall cavity and what step is often missed?

The CL2-rated jacket meets in-wall fire codes, but the ferrite cores near each connector add bulk — plan the drill hole wide enough for them or they will not pass through.

What part of this cable is most likely to degrade first with daily plugging and unplugging?

The gold-plated male connectors resist corrosion, yet the 28 AWG conductors are thin; repeated sharp bends at the strain relief can fatigue the copper before the jacket shows wear.

At what point does the 12 ft length start limiting 4K 60 Hz signal integrity?

The cable is rated for 4.95 Gbps throughput, which covers 1080p and 720p reliably; sustained 4K 60 Hz needs 18 Gbps, so the bandwidth ceiling is reached before distance becomes the issue.
