Q
Do you have to plug the USB in for the cable to work?
[ Justin Dec 10, 2020 ]
4 answers
A
This is also a directional cable and the usb power should be plugged in on the monitor or projector end.
[ james Dec 30, 2020 ]
A
Yes, the cable requires USB power to carry the display signal. Most current model TVs have USB ports near the HDMI port. In the event that yours doesn't, you could purchase a USB power adapter that matches the minimum power requirements or greater [5V (max) - 500mA (min), something like the old Apple power cubes should suffice]. Or, if it is too far away, which it was in my case, you can use the USB extension.

Yes, it requires the additional power to pull the high-def video/audio source across the extended cable length. Most televisions include USB ports, but you may be able to plug this standard electrical outlet with a USB adaptor.

Q
Samsung says itâ??s smart TVs ARC HDMI cable is appropriate to connect with sound bar. Is this type of cable required too? Samsung makes no mention of the need for a spec HDMI cable.
[ Frank May 01, 2020 ]
1 answer
A
This type of cable is only needed if the soundbar also have HDMI inputs for connecting devices like Blu-Ray players, game systems, media speakers, etc... to the soundbar as well. Feel free to contact an advisor on 1-800-324-9695 to discuss your gear and setup to get a personal recommendation on an HDMI cable
