CABNEER 8K HDMI 2.1 Braided Cable, 3 ft, 2-Pack
Cheap, sturdy short HDMI cables; the 48Gbps rating is the seller's claim, not certified.
The short version
- People who need two short HDMI cables for devices right next to the TV or monitor
- Console or PC owners who want a cable rated for 4K at 120Hz without spending much
- You want a cable with the official Ultra High Speed certification label you can verify by QR code
- Your devices are more than 3 ft from the display
What owners like
- The same CABNEER line is sold across several Amazon marketplaces in many lengths, from 1 ft to 35 ft
- Braided build and metal housings are the main selling points across the line
Common complaints
- No independent test or forum thread on this specific cable was found
- Forum members warn that uncertified cables marketed as 48Gbps cannot be guaranteed to deliver 4K at 120Hz, so results may vary
Based on Thin. The Amazon listing and another CABNEER listing in the same line, a retailer product page for the same cable series, an AVForums thread on cables for 4K at 120Hz, and the HDMI Licensing Administrator's certification page. No owner reviews were quoted or copied..

What it does
A pair of short nylon braided HDMI cables rated by the seller for 48Gbps, 8K at 60Hz and 4K at 120Hz.
- Rated for the full 48Gbps bandwidth that 4K at 120Hz gaming needs
- Supports VRR and ALLM gaming modes and eARC audio to a soundbar, per the seller
- Nylon braided jacket and aluminum connector housings
- Backward compatible with older HDMI ports
- Sold as a 2-pack in a short 3 ft length; the same line comes in longer lengths
A low cost way to get two short braided cables for a console, streaming box or monitor that sits close to the screen. The trade-off is that none of the listings read mention official Ultra High Speed HDMI certification, so the 48Gbps rating is the seller's claim rather than an independently tested one.

Questions
Does the CABNEER HDMI cable support 4K at 120Hz on a PS5 or Xbox Series X?
It is rated for 48Gbps and 4K at 120Hz, which is what those consoles need. Because no certification is listed, the rating is the seller's claim.
Is this an HDMI 2.1 certified cable?
There is no such thing as an HDMI 2.1 cable as such. The relevant label is Ultra High Speed HDMI, and the listings read do not mention it.
Does it support eARC for a soundbar?
Yes, the seller lists eARC support.
Will it work with older HDMI devices?
Yes. The seller states it is backward compatible with HDMI 2.0, 1.4 and earlier ports.
