For licensing reasons, version numbers may no longer be used to differentiate between HDMI standards. The following terms now apply:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>HDMI standard (Full HD)<br>(V 1.0) with up to 3.96 GBit\/s at a maximum resolution of 1,080p (60 Hz)<br>(V1.2) with up to 7.92 GBit\/s at a maximum resolution of 1,080p (60 Hz)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>HDMI High Speed (4K, 3D, Deep Color)<br> (V 1.3) with up to 8.16 GBit\/s at a maximum resolution of 1,440p (60 Hz)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>HDMI Premium High Speed (4K)<br> (V 1.4) with up to 8.16 GBit\/s at a maximum resolution of 2,560 x 1,600p (60 Hz)<br> (V 2.0) with up to 14.4 GBit\/s at a maximum resolution of 3,840 x 2,160p (60 Hz)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>HDMI HDMI Ultra High Speed (8K)<br>(V 2.1) with up to 42.67 GBit\/s at a maximum resolution of 7,680 x 4,320p (60 Hz)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"HDMI_%E2%80%93_Kabel\"><\/span>HDMI cable<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The golden thumb rule: as short and as good as possible!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The higher the data rate to be transmitted, the more complex the manufacturing process. Cable made of hypercrystalline copper with an extremely high degree of purity, quadruple shielding, separated inner conductors and - of course - with 24 kt. Gold-plated connectors ensure extremely low-loss signal transmission and the highest possible speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For such cables - yes, you read that correctly - a good 800 euros are due, for a length of at least 12 m. Fiber optic cables can cost up to four-digit euros.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned at the beginning, the cable lengths should generally be kept under 3 - 5 meters if you want to buy cables at reasonably affordable prices and still have a usable transmission rate. It makes more economic sense to bridge longer distances with HDMI amplifiers, so-called expanders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"HDMI_%E2%80%93_Expander\"><\/span>HDMI expander<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>These bridge up to 180 m <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ute.de\/produkte\/videotechnik\/dvi-hdmi-verlaengerungen\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">expander<\/a>by transmitting the HDMI signal via network cable (CAT.7).
