A dependable cable for your "next-gen" HDMI sources

This Ethereal Velox HDMI cable provides the bandwidth you need to take full advantage of sources like PS5 and Xbox Series X gaming consoles, which can output high-frame-rate 4K/120Hz video to a compatible display. It also supports video resolution up to 8K, plus an audio feature known as "eARC" (enhanced Audio Return Channel), which lets you pass high-quality, uncompressed audio signals back to your receiver or sound bar from your compatible TV.

Directional fiber-optic design, powered by USB

This high-quality fiber-optic cable is "active" — it requires AC power at both ends, which is supplied by a pair of included USB adapters. Its directional design means that signals only work properly flowing one way, and the cable ends are labeled with "Source" and "Display" to show you how to hook them up correctly.

The lifetime warranty is a great touch, especially for in-wall cable installations.

Features

USB Powered: The Velox Active Fiber HDMI cable must receive 5V/1A of power to transmit an audio/video signal. It comes with two USB/AC power adapters and two 29" USB cables to connect at each end of the cable and to a power source.

HDMI 2.1 (8K/48Gbps): The Velox Active Fiber HDMI cable meets HDMI 2.1 specifications with bandwidth capability up to 48Gbps (12Gbps x 4ch) for uncompressed ultimate high speed audio/video performance. It supports up to 8K video and up to 32 audio channels, as well as Dynamic HDR and all color subsampling. It is also HDCP 2.3 compliant for compatibility with latest copyright protections. In addition, it supports eARC, ARC, and Ethernet.

Note: It is backward compatible with HDMI 2.0, HDCP 2.2 and all earlier versions.

High-Quality Construction: Velox's ultra-premium construction and high-tech engineering results in clean, reliable performance for the demands of higher bandwidth 8K content even in long runs. The Velox Active Fiber HDMI cable features multi-layer shielding to prevent electromagnetic interference, maximizing noise isolation and protecting components from HDMI ultra-low speed emanations. It also features 24K gold-plated, corrosion-resistant contact connectors.

Directional: The Velox Active Fiber HDMI cable can only be used in one direction. The HDMI connectors on each end of the cable are marked with "Source" and "Display". Each HDMI connector must be plugged into the correct port to avoid signal loss. Locking connectors and screws are included to secure the HDMI connector to your source and display device.

Make the appropriate connections with your Source and Display device turned off.
Do not use any intermediate cables or adapters between the connections, as the signal transmission performance maybe attenuated.

CL-Listed: The Velox Active Fiber HDMI cable is CL-listed for in-wall installations. It is intended for indoor use only; do not use it outdoors (contact with moisture must be avoided under all circumstances). The PVC jacket is also lightweight, flexible, and has a small diameter of only 0.1875". The HDMI connector measures 0.875" (w) x 0.4375" x 0.9375" (d).

Lifetime Warranty: The Velox Active Fiber HDMI cable comes with an impressive Lifetime warranty.

Greetings Sam, and thank you for your question. The locking connectors and screws are detached when the cable ships. They come inside the packaging if you decide to use them.

I have never used a HDMI cable that requires power, how exactly does this work? I have a Denon AVR-X3300W receiver that the cable will be run from through the wall to a LG C1 77 OLED. I need this to support the 4k 120 for the PS5.

We're here to help

For free personalized advice, call 1-888-291-8923. Our Advisors have listened to most of the speakers we carry, and can help you make the best choice for your system.

We'd love to know what you think

Audition speakers before you buy

SpeakerCompare simulates the sound of home and car speakers through your headphones. It lets you compare sonic characteristics between speakers so that you can make a more informed shopping decision.

Why selecting your headphones is important

SpeakerCompare tailors your listening experience to the exact headphones you have, so that what you hear is comparable to auditioning speakers side-by-side in person. Knowing which model headphones you’re using lets us remove any sonic coloring from your experience.

Two different listening modes

In an actual listening room, you'd find that some speakers play louder than others when fed the same amount of power. In equal power mode, you'll hear these differences in loudness as they naturally occur between speakers.

In equal volume mode, we've made the loudness of each speaker about the same. This gives you a more direct comparison of subtle voicing differences between speakers.

Nothing beats listening to speakers in your space

SpeakerCompare gives you a sense of the sonic differences. But performance in the real world is affected by the acoustics of your car or home, your choice of amplification, and your source material. We still believe that the gold standard for auditioning speakers is hearing them in your own environment — that’s why we offer a 60-day money-back guarantee.

Our Listening Kit

To help you choose the right speakers, we recommend using Crutchfield’s SpeakerCompare Listening Kit. It includes a pair of studio-quality headphones, and a guide to getting the most out of your session, and a few other necessary items. We’ve carefully chosen the components of this kit to ensure a crystal-clear listening experience. It’s available for a nominal rental fee, and includes a $25 Crutchfield merchandise credit.
