Tripp Lite P568-050-BK-GRP 50 ft HDMI cable

50 ft HDMI cable for home and office

This 50 ft high-speed HDMI cable links laptops, tablets, PCs, Blu-ray players, game consoles or set-top boxes to TVs, monitors, projectors or receivers. Male-to-male connectors with a gripping design hold the plug firmly in the port to prevent accidental disconnects. The black jacket suits permanent or temporary installations where a long reach is needed.

Practical limits of the 50 ft run

At this length the cable supports video resolutions up to 1080p for reliable picture quality. Longer HDMI runs can introduce signal degradation that prevents higher resolutions from passing without an active booster or fibre extender. The gripping connectors reduce mechanical strain but do not change the electrical distance limit inherent to passive copper at 50 ft.

Capacity and headroom for typical sources

The cable comfortably handles 1080p streams from laptops, consoles or media players in classrooms, conference rooms or home theatres. It runs out of headroom for 4K or HDR content, which demand more bandwidth than a passive 50 ft copper link can deliver. Buyers who need 4K at this distance should consider an active optical or fibre solution instead.
