HDMI cables

Monitor connection cords

HDMI cables carry high-definition video and audio signals between devices—connecting a laptop to a monitor, a gaming console to a television, a streaming device to a projector.

The acronym stands for High-Definition Multimedia Interface.

Different versions support different resolutions and features, which matters mainly for 4K displays and high refresh rates: I need a new HDMI cable for my PS5.
