RUIPRO 8K HDMI 2.1b Fiber Optic Cable, Ultra High Speed Certified, 33FT

Can someone actually say Ruipro's customer service is actually 'too' good?! Read on... I did a lot of research, needing a 50 ft cable for my new home theater after moving into a new house with an existing theater. My previous theater used a 30 ft cable so the length was not a huge issue, but at 50 ft, I knew I'd be safer going with Fiber Optic. Ruipro kept popping up as one of the highest rated. Since I had to fish the cable through a conduit in the ceiling, I also figured a cable rated specifically for that purpose was also in order. Added to all that, I also wanted a cable that was certified, harder to find with Fiber Optic of this length. Ruipro checked all the boxes. So, I ordered it. It is indeed certified, confirmed through the app. The cable arrived in a sturdy box and was well packed within it. Careful instructions made sure to let us know this cable is not bidirectional. While I knew this, it seems some people do not and connect it the wrong way then have issues and blame the cable. One end is for Source (BD player, Firestick, etc.), another for Display such as TV or Projector). Good for Ruipro to spell this out clearly. I tested the cable and all was fine. I fished the cable through the ceiling and set it all up. It worked great. Good picture quality and refresh rate. Works well with my Nakamichi sound bar and Epson LS11000 projector. Blu-rays 1080 and 4K, great! I watched several movies with no issues. Now...a couple of weeks later we decided to stream a movie rather than watch one on Blu-ray. Halfway through the movie, the video blacked out for about 10 seconds while the sound was still going. It did this a few times. My heart sank. My previous home theater had a BenQ projector (my second one) which gave us enough of a hassle for me to change to Epson this time, so now having new issues and knowing it was not the projector I was like, "WHAT NOW?!" A litlle research pointed to the HDMI, which honestly is like a therapist blaming the parents but alas, I reached out to Ruipro not expecting much. I also placed an Amazon replacement order for the cable because unless I had a second cable to test against, I would not be able to tell if indeed it was the cable that was the problem. When something goes awry in a home theater, the process of elimination begins and usually starts with the HDMI cable. Lo and behold, while Amazon was already sending me a replacement, Ruipro contacted me and sent me one too! I tried to tell them not to, but could not stop it because Ruipro was THAT fast! Ruipro asked me to send the 'defective' one back for testing, which I would do. So, I got Amazon's replacement cable and tested it out. The streaming video still blacked out once in a while. Ugh. Well, at least now I knew it was not the cable. Then the Ruipro cable arrived. Now I had THREE cables sitting here. Guess what ended up being the issue? The Amazon Firestick! More research led me to test the Firestick (reboot, change HDMI ports, etc.) and then buy a new one. The new one worked with no issues and now streaming is perfectly fine. Apparently, this loss of video while audio still runs is a known Firestick issue, even though until now I never experienced it (I own two...well, three now). Good to know it is not always the parents...er...cable's fault. Thankfully, it was not the sound bar or projector, which would have been a nightmare, but it would have also made no sense since Blu-rays worked just fine. Why would streaming be the issue? Duh...it was the Firestick.... Back to Ruipro. I wrote back to Thomas at their customer service to explain it all and asked them how to return the one they sent me, which was unopened, so they could sell it. While I need to send back the Amazon replacement so as not to get charged for it, Ruipro told me to keep theirs! Wow. Bottom line: it is not always the HDMI cable. Also, and more importantly, Ruipro's customer service is fantastic. They go above and beyond, stand behind their product and care about the customer...these days, a miracle. So, they now have a lifetime customer in me, because I know should I ever have an HDMI cable issue, they'll stand behind it. Of course, don't expect you'll get a free cable from them just by yelling 'defective,' as my issue was a complicated one, and they WILL want your defective one to test it out (which ultimately helps us all), but the fact that they went above and beyond for me, that spoke volumes! And this tale ended well.

At start as every consumer that doesn't recognize brands, I was sketchy to purchase this item now; for my surprise once received I got a great experience; excellent packaging, the cable works perfectly for long distance (in my case I was using it for image transfer of a PC to a 60 Inc OLED) I used it also for video card recording and worked perfectly for Switch 1, 2; PS5 and XBOX. Is a good quality cable and the image is really good.

Luckily when building the house in 2007 I ran 2" CONDUIT to the tv locations instead of any wires at all. People always talk about running the best wire, or a bunch of different types, or extras if one goes bad, to 'futureproof' their install. In technology and wiring there is no such thing as futureproofing, it's a term thrown around by SALESMEN... CONDUIT is your only chance at installing something that may be as close to futureproof as you can get. Well since then we have gone through variations of HDMI from 1.2 now to 2.1, features like ARC, ATMOS, 4K, and types like Active, Powered, Optical etc. And I have re-ran cables multiple times over the years and now once more. Luckily it is an easy pull with the pull string I leave pre-ran in the conduits each time so that I don't even need a fish tape any more. Well after upgrading the theater room to a 2.1 Receiver, Sony 4K UHD, RTX 4090, and PS5, the display would not do 4k/120hz, took forever to sync and lock onto inputs when set at 4k/30hz, and would sparkle, dropout, fail to handshake, etc... Did a bunch of reading and decided to try an optical cable vs powered or active, and after enough positive reviews on the forums about RUIPRO I tried this cable. As soon as I ran the cable receiver and display Handshaked immediately and then I enabled 4k/120hz and everything just worked! It has been a few weeks and everything is working perfectly except the only small glitch I have seen is a few times the FireStick4k output will turn a solid color usually yellow or green, pressing home a bunch of times or resetting the power to it fixes it, but since this is the only device I have had an issue with and it is few years old I feel it could be either the colorspace setting I have selected in the Firestick menu, it's starting to go bad, maybe overheating as it is plugged directly into the back of the receiver, or just a glitchy compatibility thing between the Firestick and the Receiver. I have not looked too deep into it, I doubt it is the cable since I have seen zero glitches on any other source or resolution since swapping to this cable. My only concern is that the optical conversion circuitry that is built into the heads of these type cables will burnout/die eventually and not last. Since a passive cable is basically good forever unless it gets physically damaged or the wires/connections develop corrosion, these cables now reliant on internal circuitry just by design cannot last forever. But hopefully it will last until another forced upgrade due to technology changes and not failure... We will see. When you are building a home, run CONDUIT not cables people!

This cable didn't last even one year. It worked fine until it abruptly didn't, flashes of green and the screen flickering on and off. No damage to cable, no moving the cable, just low quality design & materials. Now I have to buy a new cable, but need to find a better brand.

So I ordered two 50ft optics hdmi 2.1b wires and bam big difference the one I got for 50 bucks was so light and felt so fragile. Then this one was 2-3 times heavier and felt so flexible. I was impressed. So I tested it and bam source is rtx4080 super to a medical arm ultra wide 45” 240htz curved gaming monitor. Got full specs and since it was better communication the computer was able to get all the certification from the monitor and bam it let my driver get the correct drivers and I can tell the difference. Since no hdr black screen like other cables. If optic cables are too Thin u will get black screen due to over heating due to thin wires when hdr is active and that’s a pain while playing a cod6. Over 25ft u need optic hdmi. Will post pics later when we are done but wanted to get on here to share how good of a cable this is and worth it. Also check like Best Buy u wont find a 2.1b cable at this price.

After reading many horror stories about HDMI 2.1 cables over 7 ft in length, I am genuinely surprised that this worked as advertised for the entire capabilities I was looking for. RTX 3090 - HDMI 2.1 to LG OLED 4k. G-Sync - Works HDR 10bit - Works 120hz - Works 4k - Works Stable, with no flickering. It took opening the Nvidia control center for all of those options to unlock. But that was it, just opening the app. Now the true test: For how long? I'll try to update this review if it ever fails with how long it took. Note: I was very careful in spooling out the run. The cable has significant memory and as you unwind it, be sure to gently rotate the cable to work out the loops the cable will try to from due to the memory to avoid kinks and bending it too much. Also make sure you pay attention to the directional nature of the cable.

I don’t know if it’s my bad luck or a quality problem, but this beautiful HDMI Cable only worked for 12 hours and died. Contact customer service to replace it, which is commendable! But you need to know that usually such a long cable has been buried in the wall during construction. It is very painful to pull it out and send it back for replacement, so I will let this cable sleep in the wall forever and give up replacing it with a new one. Cable. Fortunately, I prepared two HDMI cables of the same brand in advance and put them in the pipe to prevent accidents. I hope this cable will have a long life. I will update it at any time and keep an eye on how long the other cable will last. Updated: The second cable has been working for almost 400 hours and is still working so far. I hope it will surprise me.

I needed 25ft from my computer to reach the sim race rig and this cable fits the bill perfectly. Rig TV acts as 3rd monitor in my home office/game room gaming computer. I’m running a 3080ti graphics card to a Sony x85k TV and I’m able to run 4K HDR at 120Hz. Cable is beautifully constructed and looks to be top notch A-1 A-OK quality. Not sure if the video posted with this review will help if quality is compressed by Amazon, but it’s buttery smooth and super detailed. I originally used a regular/non-active HDMI 2.1 cable that claimed it was 8k/60Hz certified, but windows and nvidia control panel would only set 4k at 60Hz (should’ve been able to set to 120Hz) and HDR was not an available option even though TV is capable. After replacing it with this one, It was obvious that my old cable was not up to the task. 100% recommend this cable to anyone requiring long runs for 4k HDR 120hz. I don’t have an 8k display so I can’t speak for 8k performance.

No one in their right mind wants to pay £100 for an HDMI cable, however: This [10m] cable connects my RTX4080 to an LG 65" C9. I am getting full bandwidth, 4K, 120fps (the maximum this panel can display) with HDR and uncompressed audio. There was no faff, it was plug and play (albeit the cable is directional) and you can't ask or expect for much more. Packaging and cable construction is entirely adequate. Previous reviews appear to suggest CS is very good should things go awry. In the context of an expensive HDMI cable, it does exactly what it claims it will. I did not suffer any flashing and banging, or CEC handshake issues. I recommend this cable.

Pas de latence ni de perte de qualité vidéo. Fonctionne trop bien pour l'utilisation que j'en fais, a voir pour de la vidéo a plus haute résolution/plus haute fréquence. N'oubliez pas, il y a un sens pour ces types de câbles.

Finally I found cable that actually does what is supposed to. I bought multiple different cables to connect my gaming pc to my living room TV. And finally this was it. (I tried very budget, to mid range but always problems with signal, blackout or straight up doesn't work) This one is quite pricey but they have good warranty, and it actually works. Fairly thin, but reasonably durable (my puppy tried to chew on it, cougt him fast, but still could've been worse, cable works fine after the incident). I've been using it for months and still working well. It is expensive, I wish it was a bit cheaper 120+ euro for cable is crazy. But it does work very well I tested it for 4k 120hz HDR gaming from rtx 4090 to 4k Oled Sony Bravia TV. Would recommend and would buy again if necessary.

جودة ممتازة ومرونة عالية في الاستخدام. استخدمته لتوصيل الكمبيوتر بالمسرح المنزلي عبر تمديد من السقف، وكان الفرق واضح جدًا مقارنة بالكيبل السابق. الكيبل القديم كان يعاني من تقطيع مستمر وانطفاء الشاشة بشكل متكرر، لكن مع هذا الكيبل الجديد اختفت هذه المشاكل تمامًا. رغم أن طوله 10 أمتار، إلا أن الإشارة مستقرة جدًا والجودة عالية بدون أي تدهور. أستخدمه مع كمبيوتر مزود بكرت شاشة RTX 5080، ويقدم أداء ممتاز بدقة 4K بدون أي تقطيع أو مشاكل. تجربة ناجحة وأنصح به لمن يحتاج كابل طويل بجودة عالية وثبات في الأداء

Full 48 gbps with HDR VRR in 4K at a distance of 15 m this may be your best bet. Very good customer service. I would buy from them again. One of very few certified 48 gbps alternatives.
