Belkin AV10176BT2M-BLK HDMI Cable 2m Type A Black

Belkin AV10176BT2M-BLK | 2m Ultra HD HDMI 2.1 Cable

The Belkin AV10176BT2M-BLK HDMI cable 2 m HDMI Type A (Standard) Black delivers 48 Gbps bandwidth for modern home entertainment setups. This cable is suited for users connecting a PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, or an Apple TV 4K to a compatible television. Its primary USP is support for 4K resolution at 120 Hz, ensuring fluid motion handling for high-frame-rate gaming and video.

Technical Performance Overview

This cable supports HDMI 2.1 specifications, allowing for higher bandwidth than older standards. It enables 4K content at 120 Hz and 8K at 60 Hz where source and display hardware permits. The 2-metre length suits most living room configurations where the console sits separate from the TV.

4K HDR and Dolby Vision Support

The cable supports 4K High Dynamic Range (HDR) formats. This allows for enhanced brightness and contrast when viewing compatible content. Dolby Vision is supported, provided every link in the chain—including the source device and TV—is Dolby Vision compatible. This ensures billions of colours are displayed accurately.

High Refresh Rate for Gaming

Support for 120 Hz refresh rate reduces motion blur in fast-paced scenes. This is beneficial for gaming on consoles that output high frame rates. The cable also supports Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) as specified in HDMI 2.1. VRR synchronises the display refresh rate with the source frame rate to reduce stuttering.

Robust Construction and Design

The cable features a braided external jacket. This design resists wear and tear from frequent connection and disconnection. The straight HDMI Type A connectors are male-to-male. This standard configuration connects most source devices to displays without adapters.
