Ultra High Speed HDMI™ Cables by Cisco® enable your team to explore uncompromising bandwidth, pristine 8K audiovisual signal clarity, long reach, and enterprise-grade cloud management with a new generation of High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI)*-enabled conferencing cables. These high-performing room accessories excel by streamlining AV installation, simplifying the integration of displays, cameras, and other peripherals, and allow for reliable content sharing for your teams.


Build powerful, video-enabled meeting spaces without hardware complexity or sacrificing reliability—all through carefully engineered HDMI connections. These new conferencing cables deliver the promise of HDMI 2.1 standard while maintaining consistent signal transmission.
Enable end users to share high-resolution content with no extra steps, signal loss, or moments of uncertainty. Use them to connect a laptop for engaging presentations in huddle rooms, at conference tables, or across larger, more dynamic collaboration spaces.
Featuring up to 20-meter (65.6-foot) reach and active optical design in longer models, these cables help you connect displays, cameras, and content sources at larger distances without extender-clutter and extra power sources—reducing failure points and support overhead. Their slim, durable design makes it easy to route HDMI behind displays, through ceilings, or under tables. By replacing multiple hardware components with a single run, you can ease systems integration and enable a remarkably clean setup while ensuring a stable AV environment for large-scale deployments.
