Check your device manuals to make sure you have the right connectors.

Where's the version number?    According to HDMI, version numbers reflect capabilities, but do not correspond to product features. In other words, HDMI does not require manufacturers to implement everything that HDMI can do. HDMI provides a menu of abilities and allows the manufacturer to choose which of those features make sense for the product line.    For example, if you want the new video features called Deep Color, look for Deep Color in the feature set rather than HDMI 1.3, the version of the specification that enabled Deep Color. Why? Because the version of the specification that enables Deep Color (1.3) does not necessarily mean that the Deep Color functionality is implemented.    As a result, HDMI strongly recommends that consumers look for products with the features they want, rather than for the version number of the HDMI components.

High-Definition Video and Audio in a Single Cable

High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) has become the de facto standard for high-definition digital devices. It combines both audio and video into one convenient cable, so you can easily connect your HDTV to your A/V receiver, Blu-ray player, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, satellite dish and other high-definition source devices. The AmazonBasics High-Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet lets you take advantage of a resolution of up to 1080p and an increased colour depth on your HDTV. It also supports 3D television functionality.

Why Ethernet Matters

As the graphic to the left illustrates, getting ethernet to your numerous internet capable devices required either a wireless signal, which can decrease performance, or an additional dedicated cable from each unit to a connected internet source. Ethernet-ready HDMI cables still allow you to combine HD video and digital audio in one cable, with the added benefit of also being able to carry all of your favourite internet contents.

Backwards Compatible with Previous HDMI Standards

This cable is backwards compatible with all previous HDMI standards, so you'll be able to use this cable with all your HDMI devices. When you connect two devices with different HDMI standards, they will automatically find the best available connection.

Shielding and Gold-Plated Connectors for Signal Purity

This HDMI cable features shielding and a durable black PVC outer layer. The shielding provides defence against outside interference and helps maintain the integrity and purity of the digital signal.

The cable also features gold-plated connectors that resist corrosion whilst offering optimum signal transfer with lower distortion at the point of contact. The result of this dedication to the digital signal is sound and picture quality that is truer to the original.
