HDMI 35 ft run, want high speed with Ethernet help

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
I have a run that requires about 35 feet of HDMI. I want to run 3D, 1080p and Ethernet. What cable can I use for this.

I can also run a dedicated Ethernet cable to the TV.

Certified High Speed HDMI for that length. High Speed HDMI cables with ethernet do exist (I have them) but the ethernet part is pretty much useless because I don't think there are any devices yet that utilize ethernet over HDMI. I could be wrong though.

Otto, you have it exactly right. The "with Ethernet" is useless right now because the HDMI chipsets with the option don't seem to exist yet for consumers.

Thanks for tour comments. High Speed is one thing. What about 3D?

Certified High Speed HDMI can handle 3D with no problems but the length may be a concern. Alk3997 can shed some light on the specifics.

Longest certified passive high speed HDMI cable is about 25'. You might be able to find an active HDMI cable certified high speed at the length you need. Otherwise you are looking at a standard HDMI cable or one of the extender products. A 22-24 AWG cable will probably do the job for you. It will almost certainly work for 1080p24 3D BD. It might even work for 1080p60 3D gaming.
