How to read the video rating
Maximum capability is not a guarantee for every setup
The 3m extension uses the 4K60 allowance. A direct-plug device fits; another cable exceeds it.
- Verified exact-SKU target: Up to 4K at 60Hz only when the total HDMI path does not exceed 3m; up to 4K30 when total path does not exceed 5m.
- Published capacity: Up to 10.2Gbps is stated in the official body; version labels on the page conflict.
- The source, display and selected ports must all support the requested mode.
- Receivers, switches, splitters, capture devices, docks, adapters, wall plates and extra cables may lower the result.
What the cable can carry
Audio and feature support
HDMI extension and port-relief use
The cable can transport the listed signal only when the source, content and receiving equipment support it.
conditional 4K60
This is a pass-through capability; it must be available and enabled across the complete HDMI chain.
conditional 4K30
This is a pass-through capability; it must be available and enabled across the complete HDMI chain.
ARC
This is a pass-through capability; it must be available and enabled across the complete HDMI chain.
HDMI Ethernet Channel
This is a pass-through capability; it must be available and enabled across the complete HDMI chain.
3D
This is a pass-through capability; it must be available and enabled across the complete HDMI chain.
A cable does not decode Dolby or DTS audio, create HDR, generate extra frames or add ARC/eARC to an ordinary HDMI port. Those functions come from compatible devices, content and settings.
Exact-SKU guidance
Construction and routing
Flexible extension format
30AWG tinned-copper conductors, triple shielding, gold-plated connectors and a flexible black outer jacket.
- Passive extension; the male end connects toward the receiving/source port being extended and the female accepts a standard HDMI male plug
- Plan gentle bends and protect the connector housings from pulling force.
- Do not infer an in-wall, plenum, LSZH or fire rating unless it is printed on the supplied cable.
- Test the exact intended mode before any route becomes difficult to access.

Setup and usability guidance
- Step 1: Measure the complete HDMI path, including this extension and any additional male-to-male cable.
- Step 2: Connect the male end to the HDMI port being extended.
- Step 3: Connect a standard full-size HDMI male plug or male-plug device to the female end.
- Step 4: For 4K60, keep the total path within the official 3m rule; for 4K30, keep it within 5m.
- Step 5: Verify the negotiated mode and test ARC/CEC functions before fixing the cable in place.
After setup, open the television or monitor signal-information page. It is the quickest way to confirm the actual resolution, refresh rate and HDR state received by the display.
Exact-SKU guidance
Compatible devices and systems
Match the connector and the port capability
- Full-size HDMI ports on TVs, monitors, projectors, PCs and consoles
- Streaming sticks and other devices with an integrated full-size HDMI male plug
- Standard full-size HDMI male-to-male cables, subject to total-length limits
- ARC-capable HDMI equipment when the complete chain supports ARC
Operating systems normally need no cable driver. A computer may still require the correct graphics driver and display settings, while a USB-C-only device needs a separate video-capable adapter or dock.
Avoid the common mismatch
Check before buying
- The required physical route really suits 3m, with enough slack but no tight coil or tension.
- Both connector ends match the intended ports: Full-size HDMI Type-A male to full-size HDMI Type-A female.
- The requested mode stays within the exact-SKU guidance: Up to 4K at 60Hz only when the total HDMI path does not exceed 3m; up to 4K30 when total path does not exceed 5m.
- The 3m extension uses the 4K60 allowance. A direct-plug device fits; another cable exceeds it.
- Every adapter, receiver, switch, splitter, wall plate or extra cable in the path supports the same video, HDCP and audio requirements.
- A concealed route does not require a safety rating that has not been verified for this cable.
Scope and limitations
What this product does
- Provides a 3m physical HDMI connection using full-size hdmi type-a male to full-size hdmi type-a female.
- Carries compatible digital video and audio within the verified Conditional 4K60 guidance.
- Passes supported functions such as HDMI extension and port-relief use, conditional 4K60, conditional 4K30, ARC when the complete system supports them.
- Moves an HDMI connection point and can reduce repeated handling of the original port.
What this product does not do
- It does not upscale content, create HDR, decode audio, generate frames or improve the native quality of a display.
- It does not add a resolution, refresh rate, ARC/eARC feature or HDCP version to a port that lacks it.
- It does not convert USB-C, DisplayPort, Mini/Micro HDMI, DVI or VGA.
- It does not boost or regenerate a weakened signal, and it is not a splitter.
Care and installation practice
What to do
- Check the exact SKU and length on the order and received package before installation.
- Add the length of every HDMI segment and compare the total with the published video-mode rule.
- Hold the connector housing—not the cable body—when plugging or unplugging.
- Test the intended video and audio mode with a direct connection before adding other devices.
What not to do
- Do not force a misaligned HDMI plug or pull a connector out by the cable.
- Do not treat a chained extension as an active signal booster or unconditional 4K connection.
- Do not sharply kink, knot, crush, staple, pinch under furniture or expose the cable to heat or moisture.
- Do not assume the cable upgrades the HDMI capability of a source, display, adapter or receiver.

Warnings and limitations
Verified ceiling
The product page calls it HDMI 2.0 in the title but HDMI 1.4/1.4A and 10.2Gbps in the body/specification. This page relies on the exact resolution and total-length rules instead of a version label.
Installation caution
Adding any second cable to this 3m extension puts the total path above the official 3m condition for 4K60.
Not a converter
It does not convert signal formats, split one source to two screens or amplify the signal.
Route and rating
No in-wall or fire rating is claimed.

Product-specific FAQ
How does the total-length rule affect the advertised mode?
The 3m extension uses the 4K60 allowance. A direct-plug device fits; another cable exceeds it.
What connectors does it use?
Full-size HDMI Type-A male to full-size HDMI Type-A female. It does not fit Mini HDMI, Micro HDMI, USB-C, DisplayPort, DVI or VGA without a separate compatible adapter.
Can I attach another HDMI cable to the female end?
Physically yes, but the added cable increases the total path. Any added length exceeds the stated 3m condition for 4K60.
Which devices can I connect?
Use it with compatible full-size HDMI equipment such as Full-size HDMI ports on TVs, monitors, projectors, PCs and consoles; Streaming sticks and other devices with an integrated full-size HDMI male plug; Standard full-size HDMI male-to-male cables, subject to total-length limits.
What determines the actual picture mode?
The lowest-capability source, port, display, content format, setting and intermediate device controls the final mode.
Can I connect a streaming stick directly?
Yes, if it has a standard full-size HDMI male plug. A direct-plug device avoids adding another cable segment.
Can I route it inside a wall or ceiling?
No concealed-installation rating is claimed here. Check the physical cable marking and local requirements before any in-wall or ceiling route.
What should I check if there is no picture?
Reseat both ends, select the correct input, try a direct connection, lower the mode and verify every device and setting in the chain.
How should I care for the cable?
Use gentle curves, avoid crushing or pulling, grip connector housings, and keep the cable dry and away from heat.
What is included?
One UGREEN 10145 3m HDMI male-to-female extension cable. Connected equipment and adapters are not included.
