About this product
Running an HDMI cable inside a wall or above a drop ceiling for a clean home theater install? This CL2-rated High-Speed HDMI cable is rated by UL for in-wall installation behind drywall — most standard HDMI cables are not. Built with 26 AWG tinned copper conductors for stronger signal carry over medium runs, foil + braid double shielding, gold-plated connectors, and a CL2-rated PVC jacket that meets fire safety code for residential and light commercial wall installs. Compatible with PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Apple TV 4K, Roku, Fire TV, AV receivers, projectors, ceiling-mounted displays, and conference room TVs — does not support plenum (above-ceiling air-handling) installs; for plenum runs, choose a CMP-rated cable. Supports 4K@30Hz, 1080p, HDR10, ARC, CEC, and HDMI Ethernet Channel at up to 10.2 Gbps. Best for: in-wall home theater runs, mounted-projector installs, and conference room cable drops. Not for: plenum spaces or outdoor exposure. RoHS compliant.

Run HDMI Inside Walls Safely — UL CL2-Rated Jacket
Pulling cable through drywall for a wall-mounted TV, ceiling-mounted projector, or in-wall home theater run? CL2-rated jackets meet the fire safety code for residential in-wall installation — standard HDMI cables don't carry this rating and may violate building code if buried in a wall. Use this cable for clean, code-compliant cable drops.
4K Ultra HD with 26 AWG Conductors for Stronger Medium Runs
Rated to High-Speed HDMI 1.4 with 10.2 Gbps bandwidth. Carries 4K Ultra HD at 30Hz, 1080p Full HD at 120Hz, HDR10, ARC for soundbars, CEC remote pass-through, and HDMI Ethernet Channel. Heavier 26 AWG tinned copper conductors maintain signal over longer cable runs (30–65 ft) better than standard 28 AWG.
Works with PS5, Xbox, AV Receivers, Projectors — Not Plenum
Compatible with PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Apple TV 4K, Roku, Fire TV, AV receivers, soundbars, ceiling-mounted projectors, and HDMI-equipped TVs and monitors. Quick check: in-wall home theater — Yes; above suspended ceiling air space (plenum) — No, use CMP-rated; outdoor exposure — No; 4K@120Hz gaming — No, HDMI 1.4 limit.
26 AWG Tinned Copper, Foil + Braid Shielding, Gold-Plated
26 AWG tinned copper conductors deliver stable high-bandwidth signal over medium runs. Foil + braid double shielding rejects interference from in-wall AC wiring, Wi-Fi access points, and other nearby cables. Gold-plated 19-pin connectors resist corrosion in low-airflow wall cavities.
Sample-Tested Production — Cable Leader Direct Support
Each cable is sample-tested during production for continuity, signal integrity, and CL2 jacket compliance. Manufactured to RoHS environmental standards. If a cable arrives defective or stops working in normal use, Cable Leader handles replacement requests directly — no manufacturer redirects.

Running an HDMI cable inside a wall or above a drop ceiling for a clean home theater install?

Not for: plenum spaces or outdoor exposure. RoHS compliant.

Running an HDMI cable 35, 50, or 65 feet from a wall-mounted TV down to a media closet — and need it CL2-rated for in-wall installation? This 24 AWG CL2-rated High-Speed HDMI cable is built for long passive runs where lighter 26 AWG cables start losing 4K signal. Built with 24 AWG tinned copper conductors (heavier gauge = lower loss over distance), foil + braid double shielding, gold-plated 19-pin connectors, and a CL2-rated PVC jacket that meets fire safety code for residential and light commercial in-wall installs. Compatible with PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Apple TV 4K, AV receivers, projectors, ceiling-mounted displays, classroom TVs, and conference room setups — for runs longer than 65 ft, use an Active HDMI cable or HDMI fiber AOC instead. Supports 4K@30Hz, 1080p Full HD, HDR10, ARC, CEC, and HDMI Ethernet Channel at up to 10.2 Gbps. Best for: long passive in-wall home theater runs, classroom installs, and conference room cable drops. Not for: plenum spaces, runs over 65 ft, or 4K@120Hz gaming. RoHS compliant.

Setting up a TV, monitor, or game console and need a reliable HDMI cable that just works? This Cable Leader High-Speed HDMI cable with Ethernet delivers 4K Ultra HD video and multi-channel audio over a single connection — no adapters, no signal drop, no hunting through five drawers for the cable that came with the box. Built with 28 AWG tinned copper conductors, foil + braid double shielding, and gold-plated connectors that resist corrosion. Compatible with PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Apple TV 4K, Roku, Fire TV, Nintendo Switch, soundbars, AV receivers, and any modern TV or monitor with an HDMI port — does not support 8K or 4K@120Hz output. Supports 4K@30Hz, 1080p@120Hz, HDR10, ARC, CEC, and HDMI Ethernet Channel up to 18 Gbps total bandwidth (HDMI 1.4 spec). Best for: 4K@60Hz home theater, gaming console hookups, set-top boxes, and short-to-medium room runs. Not for: 4K@120Hz competitive gaming or 8K displays. RoHS compliant.

Wall-mounting a TV with barely an inch of clearance behind it — and the bulky standard HDMI cable kicks the TV away from the wall? This Ultra Slim RedMere Active HDMI cable is a third the diameter of standard HDMI thanks to 36 AWG conductors and a built-in RedMere amplifier chip that recovers signal that thinner cables would otherwise lose. Built with 36 AWG conductors, RedMere active equalization, foil + braid shielding, and a slim, flexible PVC jacket. Compatible with PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Apple TV 4K, Roku, Fire TV, AV receivers, soundbars, and any modern HDMI display — directional cable: the marked SOURCE end must connect to the source device (TV-mount cable management is significantly easier). Supports 4K@30Hz, 1080p, HDR10, ARC, CEC, and HDMI Ethernet Channel up to 10.2 Gbps. Best for: tight wall-mount installs, cable management projects, monitor arms, and bedroom/office setups where bulk matters. Not for: in-wall installation (no CL2 jacket) or 4K@120Hz. RoHS compliant.
