Buy with Confidence: With Monoprice's Lifetime Warranty on all Cables, you can rest assured we stand behind our products and our customers. ACTIVE CHIPSET - The active chipset individually regenerates and balances the three video signal elements, giving the cable the ability to transmit High Speed HDMI signals over longer distances, using thinner gauge conductors than passive HDMI cables. PREMIUM BRAIDED JACKET - The plastic cable jacket has been encased within braided nylon, which resists nicks and cuts without reducing cable flexibility. Additionally, the braided jacket gives a premium appearance over that of ordinary plastic jackets. ZINC ALLOY CONNECTORS - The zinc alloy connectors not only improve durability, they help provide protection from electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, which helps ensure the best performance possible.
