Overview

The Monoprice 104964 is a purpose-built HDMI cable designed for installations where a short, reliable connection is all you need. At just two feet long, it eliminates cable clutter when linking devices that sit side by side — think a Blu-ray player to a receiver, or a streaming stick to a wall-mounted TV. The 24AWG copper conductors deliver stable High Speed HDMI performance, supporting full HD, 4K at 30Hz, 3D passthrough, and Audio Return Channel without signal degradation over the short distance.

What sets this cable apart from generic budget options is its CL2 fire-safety rating and net jacket construction. The CL2 certification means you can legally and safely route it through walls, ceilings, or conduit during a custom installation — a requirement that many cheaper cables do not meet. The braided net jacket adds an extra layer of protection against abrasion, kinking, and everyday wear, which is especially valuable in permanent installations where replacing a cable is not a quick swap.
