HDMI Benefits
HDMI is similar to DVI in some respects, but the HDMI interface uses a smaller connector than DVI, which makes the cables easier to route through cable management systems, conduits, or through holes in building materials. The specification handles high-bandwidth, uncompressed video, as well as multi-channel digital audio, all with one cable. HDMI encoding and decoding hardware is more robust than the hardware used for DVI, so the signal can stand up to longer runs, wall plates, adapters, and so on, better than DVI. All HDMI-enabled equipment is backward compatible with DVI by using simple passive adapters or adapter cables.
Review From The Real World
When comparing digital cables, it can be very difficult to make an intelligent buying decision. Some cables that look very good actually work very badly. Some cables look less impressive, but work flawlessly. There is some truth to the old idea that you get what you pay for. For example, if you see a 2 meter HDMI cable for under $20.00, you would have to expect some compromises in materials, workmanship, and ultimately, in performance. At the same time, higher price does not necessarily equate to higher performance. For example, consider the 4 foot Monster M Series HDMI cable, model M1000 HD-4 - it works well, but it also sells for $150.00. By comparison, the somewhat longer 6 foot Gefen HDMI cable lists for $40.00 and it also works very well. In fact, a number of our customers who have reported problems with their Monster cables, have solved those problems by switching to Gefen cables.
You may have read references to exotic-sounding materials, like "Nitrogen gas injected dielectric" and "Silver-plated pure copper". You may also notice that some manufacturers make use of gold plating for connector shells. As it turns out, Gefen HDMI cables also use a gas-injected dielectric material. While it is true that silver is a slightly better conductor than copper at DC, the difference becomes insignificant in this application. Gold is actually somewhat less conductive than copper, so solid gold conductors are not desirable. Gold plating on connector shells neither helps nor hurts performance, so it falls into the category of cosmetic appeal. On the other hand, gold does have at least one desirable characteristic as it relates to cable engineering - it is highly resistant to oxidation. That is why Gefen uses gold-plating at all connector contact points.
All things considered, Gefen HDMI cables offer a very high level of performance and dependability in a low to mid-priced cable. You get the peace of mind that comes from knowing that your cables are not limiting the performance of your system, and as you are enjoying your digitally-perfect picture, you can also take comfort in the knowledge that you have avoided spending too much. A wealthy man once said that there is no status in having paid too much.
We have sold many thousands of cables, so we have a lot of experience with how cables work in the real world. We have found Gefen cables to consistently deliver a high level of performance. To date, we have never had a Gefen cable returned because of a performance problem. We think that speaks very well for their quality and consistency. It is certainly something that cannot be said of every cable that we have offered over the years.
Here is a closer look at the connector on the blue cable. The actual length of the cable offered for sale on this page is 0.3 meter (1 foot).

USA Shipping Options
USPS Priority Mail
Air service that provides 1 to 3 day delivery to US addresses. It includes basic tracking information as well as Delivery Confirmation. Saturday delivery is included at no additional charge.
USPS Priority Mail Express
Premium air service that provides overnight delivery to most (but not all) US addresses. Better tracking and faster delivery than Priority Mail. Saturday delivery is included at no additional charge.
USPS First Class Mail
Economy service for items weighing less than 13 ounces and valued at less than $200. This service is typically a day slower than priority mail and since scanning is optional, the tracking is of limited value.
UPS Ground
Economical alternative to mail services, particularly for large/heavy items. Being a ground service, it is not fast unless you happen to be close to our shipping location, but tracking is typically superior to mail services.
UPS 3 Day Select
Guaranteed delivery within 3 business days. Tracking is typically more reliable than mail services.
UPS 2nd Day Day Air
Premium alternative to mail services that provides guaranteed delivery by the end of the second business day. Tracking is typically more reliable than mail services.

International Shipping Options
Priority Mail Express International (EMS)
Our preferred international shipping method for all international shipments because it offers the best tracking as well as the fastest and most dependable delivery.
Priority Mail International
Available for items under $300 in value. Cost is somewhat lower, although delivery is typically slower and tracking is less reliable than PMEI.
First Class Mail International
Economy service for items weighing less than 4 pounds and valued at under $200. This is the least expensive international shipping option, but the savings comes at the expense of tracking - scanning not mandatory, so this service does not provide reliable tracking information, and the post office will not trace delayed or lost packages.
Please refer to the Shipping and payments tab to see the actual services, rates, and transit times available for this item.
Keep in mind that eBay's transit time estimates are from the US Postal Service. The total transit time to your address can be affected by circumstances in your own country, such as delays at your local customs office, or cases where no one is available to receive the delivery.
International customers should be prepared to pay import taxes and/or duties at the time of delivery. In NAFTA member countries, customs duties should be discounted for products that are made in the USA, but taxes may still be collected. Please be advised that we declare actual contents, value and country of origin for customs and insurance purposes.
No exceptions please.
