Any advice on using long HDMI cables with my new Samsung Q60B TV? I've heard that it's not recommended, but I want to know if there are any good options out there.
Samsung Q60B - Long HDMI Cables Possible?
Started by mrsdeanw on May 30, 2024
Long HDMI cables should technically work with your Samsung Q60B TV, but you might encounter some issues like signal loss or interference. It's always best to use a high-quality cable and keep the length within 15 feet for optimal performance.
I've used a 20-foot HDMI cable with my Q60B TV without any problems, but I did have to try a couple of different cables before finding one that worked well. Just make sure you get an HDMI 2.1 cable for better compatibility and signal quality.
It's definitely possible to use long HDMI cables with your Samsung Q60B TV, but as others have mentioned, it might be a bit hit or miss depending on the cable quality. I had great luck with an Anker HDMI 2.1 cable that's 6.6 feet long, and it performed perfectly.

@satyavayu Thanks for the recommendation! The Anker cable sounds like a good option. I'll consider that for my setup.
@Mindful95 Thanks for sharing the link to the TechReviewer article. It's really helpful in understanding which HDMI cables are compatible with different TVs, including the Q60B.
That's great! I'm glad you found the information useful. Remember to keep an eye on signal quality and try different cables if needed to find the best one for your setup.
@FrankAlton You're welcome! The article is definitely a valuable resource when it comes to HDMI cables and compatibility.
I'll probably stick with a cable around 15 feet long, just to be safe. Thanks everyone for the advice!
That's a good decision, @mrsdeanw. Keeping the cable length within that range should ensure optimal performance and avoid any potential issues.
